State Tournament Information for Fans

2012 OHSAA Football Offensive Statistical Leaders
The Ohio High School Athletic Association has compiled its initial listing of individual state statistical leaders in football for the 2012 regular season. Because not all areas of the state responded to the OHSAA’s request for statistical information, the following lists of top scorers, rushers, passers and receivers should be noted as "unofficial leaders."

Weekly Computer Point Ratings
Beginning after Week 4 of the regular season, the OHSAA posts the football computer point ratings every Tuesday afternoon. The ratings are also emailed to the OHSAA's media database and posted in the AP Marketplace.
