The road to an Ohio Division high school football championship is loaded with plenty of talented teams. All four of this weekend’s regional championships feature head-to-head matchups in the High School Football America Ohio Top 25 powered by NFL Play Football.
Headlining the state quarterfinals is the game between top-ranked St. Edward and No. 8 Medina. It will be a rematch of last year’s second round playoff game in which Medina upset, the then No. 1 St. Ed.
Division I Regional Championships
- Region 1 – No. 1 St. Edward vs. No. 8 Medina
- Region 2 – No. 3 Springfield vs. No. 12 Marysville
- Region 3 – No. 2 Pickerington Central vs. No. 15 Upper Arlington
- Region 4 – No. 4 Lakota West vs. No. 5 Archbishop Moeller
Lakota West may be the biggest surprise in the quarters. The Firebirds upset defending Division I champ St. Xavier 12-2 last weekend. St. X falls from No. 2 to No. 10 in the latest rankings created with our proprietary algorithm.
