Playoffs D3R9 #8 Bishop Watterson vs. #4 Jackson

[billcox]

Where will this game be played? Chillicothe?

[formerfcfan]

Bloom-Carroll would be my guess.

Wheelersburg will probably play Ridgewood @ Chillicothe.

ZT/Alexander will probably be Logan.

[doubleplay643]

Hamilton Township field is another possible location.

If your a Jackson fan, Chillicothe, Logan or Bloom Carroll would be perfect...knowing the state though, don't be surprised if the game is at Hamilton Township.
Burg-Ridgewood maybe at Athens, and if state is smart, which is not always the case, Alex-Zane trace at Logan if Jackson is not there.

Hamilton Township field is another possible location.

I think we'll see Kilbourne/Licking Heights there.

WK/LH would make sense at New Albany, but that might host Danville/Harvest Prep.

I'm not sure what schools applied to do playoffs, but BC would make sense for a field for this game, 1) because Chillicothe is going to be too far for home team Watterson [the now #1 seed by virtue of their upset] 2) I can't see OHSAA putting Zane Trace's game at Chillicothe.

Part of this will depend on what OCC schools win tomorrow night. Can't host if you're still in.

I don't think we'll see Athens host Burg's game. Trimble / Caldwell will play next Friday, significance here is that "the state" took a chance with New Lex for that game last year, awesome facility with terrible seating and even worse parking. I'm thinking Athens gets that game.

Of course, this is all speculation.

A school can't host if they are still in? I didn't realize this.

Zane Trace-Alex game will be at Logan, NY, or Athens is what I heard was possible. I don't see the state sending Ridgewood over to Chillicothe for a playoff game. Seems like they always play either at NY or Athens. Zanesville not being to host throws a wrench in Trimble-Caldwell. It will be interesting to see where that game is played. I think Jackson will be either at Chillicothe or Logan imo.

[formerfcfan]

Help me out here, can schools host a Friday night game AND a Saturday night game in the same week/round?

[indianabuck]

Yes they can, but the state tries to spread out the wealth the best they can. It depends on who is willing to host, and where the location is.

[Neutron Man]

This game should be a great game to see. Would love to see it. Watterson is a VERY difficult #8 seed!
Jackson will have to play it's A game all night long.

Go Ironmen!

[Roadhog]

Wow!!! Ironmen really handled Bexley with no problem!! Was at game that Jackson defense was awesome!! Better have your A game on for Bishop Watterson !!!

[X8XOHIOLEGENDX7X]

Good luck jackson this 1 could be really fun..

[billcox]

Would love to see the Ironmen pull this one out but it looks like Jackson will suffer their annual week 12 loss.

[X8XOHIOLEGENDX7X]

I think jackson can win this. will be hard but they can do it.

[YOU'RE TIGER BAIT]

congratulations to the Jackson ironmen. you guys and andy really have a fine program there. I wish you luck this coming week. and keep on rolling towards a state title for Jackson and southern ohio.

[Dandy Don]

Congrats to the Ironmen, tough sledding next week against the private school all-star teams, but represent SE Ohio best you can no matter what.

[billcox]

Already starting the private school excuses...

[Jolly P(irate)]

It can be done. Jackson has every chance to win this game. Play smart and play tough, you may just see week 13.

[doubleplay643]

Absolutely a great turnout last night at Alumni Stadium, I hope every single person that was in attendance goes this week to the High School and buys a pre-sale ticket for the game against Watterson.

The players notice the attendance and enthusiasm and appreciate the support.

Go prepare for next week Ironmen. Go Red!

[Roadhog]

Private school excuses???? Would be nice if public schools could recruite from all over and bring them in just for sports!!!!
