COLUMBUS — If No. 6 Van Wert defeats No. 1 Glenville for the Division IV Region 14 championship on Saturday, the Cougars will face the winner of Region 16, Cincinnati Wyoming or Cincinnati Taft in the state semifinals at Sidney Memorial Stadium.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The Ohio High School Athletic Association announced the bracket pairings and sites for next week\u2019s football state semifinal games on Thursday. The geography of the four state semifinalists in each division is the primary factor in determining how the regional champions will be paired. A team\u2019s won-lost record, regional seed and state rank do not factor into the pairings.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The regional finals are this weekend, with Division I, II, III and V games on Friday and Division IV, VI and VII games on Saturday. All games kick off at 7 p.m. and all tickets are available at www.ohsaa.org\/tickets.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
