Friday night football in Week 10 came to a close, as did the Ohio High School Athletic Association regular season.
Playoff spots are solidified for many, while others are still waiting for their playoff fates to be decided. Here is Greater Cincinnati's playoff picture so far, with each team listed with its unofficially clinched or possible seed.
With some Saturday games still to be played, including Taft and Withrow's meeting, some Greater Cincinnati teams still have a range of seeds they could finish with.
The Enquirer will update this file as the playoff picture becomes clearer.
Below are the first-round playoff matchup projections in Cincinnati from JoeEitel.com, which are considered unofficial until an OHSAA release.
Greater Cincinnati OHSAA playoffs first-round games
Division I, Region 4
Byes: No. 1 Princeton; No. 2 Elder; No. 3 Lakota West; No. 4 Moeller
No. 12 Lakota East at No. 5 Winton Woods
No. 11 Fairfield at No. 6 St. Xavier
No. 10 Little Miami at No. 7 Springboro
No. 9 Middletown at No. 8 Lebanon
Division II, Region 8
Byes: No. 1 Anderson; No. 2/3 Harrison
No. 12 Withrow/Butler at No. 5 Troy
No. 11 Edgewood/Butler/Withrow at No. 6 Columbus West
No. 10 La Salle/Edgewood at No. 7 Talawanda
No. 9 Withrow/La Salle at No. 8 Badin
Withrow is currently the No. 12 seed. With a win over Taft, the Tigers would be the No. 9 seed and would push down La Salle, Edgewood and Butler to their lowest seeds.
Division III, Region 12
Byes: No. 3 McNicholas
No. 12 Monroe at No. 5 Miami Trace
No. 11 Alter at No. 6 Indian Hill/Hughes
No. 10 Goshen at No. 7 Indian Hill/Hughes
No. 9 Northwest at No. 8 Unioto
Division IV, Region 16
Byes: No. 1/2/3 Cincinnati Hills Christian Academy; No. 1/2 Wyoming; No. 4 North College Hill
No. 12 Clinton-Massie/Taft at No. 5 Urbana
No. 11 New Richmond at No. 6 Wilmington
While the exact seeding of the teams with byes is mostly undecided, the teams that received them are not. Taft's impending game is the question. A Senators' win over Withrow would put them at No. 12, taking out Clinton-Massie.
Division V, Region 20
Byes: No. 2 Williamsburg; No. 4 Waynesville
No. 12 Preble Shawnee at No. 5 Summit Country Day
No. 11 Greeneview at No. 6 Fenwick
