OHSAA Releases Football Regional Semifinal Playoff Pairings  
Neutral sites will host third-round games Friday, November 10
 
COLUMBUS, Ohio – The Ohio High School Athletic Association released the football regional semifinal playoff pairings Sunday afternoon, with neutral sites hosting third-round games at 7 p.m. this Friday, November 10.
 
The regional finals are Friday, November 17, followed by the state semifinals on Friday, November 24. The state championship games are November 30, December 1 and 2 at Tom Benson Hall of Fame Stadium in Canton.
 
ABOUT NEUTRAL SITES
Neutral sites receive a hosting fee from the OHSAA and also keep revenue from concessions, parking, 50-50 raffles and program sales. In addition, the OHSAA pays for the officials.
 
Of note, a team’s regional seed, state rank and overall record do not factor into the decisions on where to play games.
 
Without schools being willing to host games, the OHSAA would not be able to use neutral sites. Many factors go into determining locations for each game, and rarely can a site be found that is exactly halftime between the two schools. Once a potential site is determined, the school must be available and willing to host a game on the requested night.
 
 
Tickets: Tickets for all playoff games are available on Mondays at www.ohsaa.org/tickets. Details on state championship game tickets are posted at: https://www.ohsaa.org/news-media/articles/tickets-now-on-sale-for-ohsaa-football-state-championships
