Does anyone know of any time changes to the 'blanket' 5:00 times put in all the brackets? I know that schools like South Webster and West who are hosting games and do not have lights may keep these times or even move them to 4:30 to make sure they are done before dark, but some schools with lights may move kick times back to 6:00.

Athens will be hosting Waverly with a kickoff time of 6:00 P.M.

Marietta is hosting South Point at 7p...due to their long drive.

That is a horrible drive....I am guessing 3 hours by bus?

I am almost positive the West-Clay game is still being held at 5. I'll make sure to update if I hear otherwise.

Google maps has it at about 2.5hrs...so yea 3 on a bus sounds about right. I would have rather kept the 5p start time and let the kids out of class early to back before 11p, if i were in their shoes. This way the kids are looking at getting back home around midnight or later.

One of the worst possiblilites would be for Northwest. They play at Gallipolis (1.5-2 hrs each way) on Monday and if they win, they would go to Warren (2.5 hrs each way) on Tuesday. 8-9 hours on a bus in 2 days...

In a situation like that, wouldn't it make sense to use a neutral site? I understand that the higher seed earned the right to host the game, but these are still high school students.

Yeah...high school students are always in bed by 9:00pm.

South Point's principal usually lets the kids come in tardy if they will be getting in so late. I think they have to be there by 10.

Looks like the weather is going to hold off tonight for the D2 games, but tomorrow's D3 games could be a little sloppy.

The New Boston @ Wheelersburg game tomorrow is at 6:00
