Playoffs D3R9 #8 Bishop Watterson vs. #4 Jackson

[Raider6309]

Week 12 Athens hosted Ironton vs Johnsontown in 2012. Athens played 13 weeks that season. You can still host if you are in the tournament. I will say ohsaa does its best to keep both teams happy

You can still host if you're in the tournament, but the OHSAA usually tries to avoid having a school host on the same night that their team is playing a game at another neutral site. Basically, the concession workers, etc. are usually parents of the players, so they want the parents to be able to watch their kid's game.

Welp....not in Logan

[ironman02]

Almost has to be Chillicothe, right?

[Raider6309]

I would guess Chillicothe since you played #7 Desales there

[Raider6309]

But Desales complained they took over the two seed and had to drive 80 minutes and Jackson drove 30. I wouldn't be surprised if this is in Columbus since Watterson is the #1 now. Hamilton a Township

OK, that makes more sense. Logic would suggest a school playing on FRI could perfectly host on SAT (vice versa), but then again OHSAA isn't always logical [*winks*]. Nevertheless, it appears I'm wrong on this one (I only know one guy who was right all the time). Oh well. I'll throw the bone you're way for that one, Pol Pot. From reading the tone of your posts towards me, sounds like you might need it. Still waiting on your PM about that other time I apparently was wrong.

This looks like one of Chillicothe, HT, and Bloom-Carroll (assuming those schools put in to host)? Alex/ZT @ Waverly apparently, Burg/Ridgewood @ Logan.

What about Circleville?? Any nice fields there??

[formerfcfan]

I went to LU/Circleville last season, which was played at Circleville, and I'm 100% sure it was grass. Hamilton Twp, Bloom-Carroll, and I believe Canal Winchester are all turf fields and are as close as you can get to Circleville along with Chillicothe. Pretty sure Logan Elm is grass.

[Raider6309]

Halfway is Circleville

According to the OHSAA, travel time has nothing to do with deciding where a game is played. They have said that if one teams travels 2 hours and another 30 minutes that has no impact on the game. Total crap, but that has been their stance.

[ironman02]

Circleville is a grass field. Doubt it's there. Has to be Chillicothe or Hamilton Township, in my opinion.

Valley should get Chillicothe

High school sports forum, speculating on where football games will be played - no matter how "right" or "wrong" makes the cold weather a tad more bearable. No need to feel stupid, man.

The gentleman who writes sports for the paper in Jackson seems to agree that HT & BC are possible options.

When does Ohsaa release the second round venues???
