CAMPBELL COUNTY â This is crunch time for prep football in the area.
While there are two weeks left in the regular season, the penultimate week will be the ultimate one in deciding the playoff paths for local teams. That is because Week 9 will be the final one for seeding games, although Week 10 could come into play if there is a three-way tie and strength of schedule comes into play for the tiebreaker.
Two county teams have already won district championships and clinched home games in at least the first two rounds of the playoffs. Highlands has marched to the 4A title. Campbell County completed a stirring comeback to beat Ryle Oct. 14 and win the 6A crown.
Here is what is at stake for local teams:
1A: Beechwood (7-1, 2-0), Bellevue (4-4, 1-1), Ludlow (2-6, 1-1), Dayton (1-7, 0-2).
Assuming Beechwood beats Ludlow, Bellevue would likely get the No. 2 seed and a first-round home game whether it beats Dayton or not. Bellevue would clinch the two seed outright with a win and has a huge edge in the numbers if there is a three-way tie for second at 1-2. Dayton could get second or third by beating Bellevue.
Should Ludlow pull the huge upset, Ludlow would get the top seed unless Bellevue wins as well, creating a three-way tie. Beechwood has a huge edge in the tiebreaker there.
2A, District 6: Newport Central Catholic (8-0, 3-0), Holy Cross (6-2, 3-0), Newport (4-5, 1-2), Lloyd (3-5, 1-2), Brossart (3-5, 0-4).
The seeds will be decided at Newport Stadium this weekend. The Lloyd/Newport winner Friday will be the three seed and the loser the four. Holy Cross and NewCath will play Saturday for the district title, with the loser getting the two seed and a first-round home game. Brossart is eliminated from playoff contention.
4A: Highlands (8-0, 4-0), Covington Catholic (6-2, 2-1), Holmes (4-4, 2-1), Harrison County (1-7, 0-3), Pendleton County (1-7, 0-3).
Highlands is the district champ. Holmes and Cov Cath meet Saturday for the two seed and a first-round home game, with the loser being the three seed. Harrison or Pendleton will at best be a 3-7 playoff team.
6A: Campbell County (3-5, 3-0), Ryle (5-3, 2-1), Dixie Heights (3-5, 2-1), Boone County (5-3, 1-2), Simon Kenton (2-6, 0-4).
Usually it takes an abacus, a slide rule and a book by Pythagoras to figure out this district, but not this year. Although many combinations of two-way ties are possible, the seeds are easy to sort out because of head-to-head results.
No matter who wins the Campbell/Boone game, Campbell is the district champ and Boone the four seed. Ryle and Dixie Heights will play Friday for the two seed and first-round home game, with the loser being the three seed. SK finishes in fifth place and under the KHSAA realignment plan will be slotted as the fourth seed in District 2. SK will travel to national power Louisville Trinity in the first round of the playoffs.
