5 seniors 9 juniors 6 sophomores 4 freshmen I think numbers are an issue for many small schools. Will be interesting where things go for some of these schools in the next 5 years in terms of overall program interest and possible moves to 8 man.

Does anyone know how many schools in Ohio are currently playing an 8-man schedule? I would guess that when a school considers it, required travel would be a deterrent if not many teams are playing it. As more teams move to it, I think a "snowball" effect might occur with more teams going that way, as scheduling and travel becomes easier.

I think it will continue to be very rare for schools to choose 8-man, and even more so for schools like BC and Bucyrus. NWCC schools are some of the smallest in the state but they keep fielding teams. And even when a season happens like Crestline this year or Hardin Northern back when they got booted from the BVC, where they can't field a team (although it looks like Crestline pulled it off this year) those schools fight tooth and nail to keep 11-man alive. It would take multiple years of not fielding an 11-man team and getting booted from a conference and taking on an independent schedule before schools will choose 8-man.

Bucyrus was considering cancelling their varsity season due to low numbers. I have not heard anything more, so I would say that they will field a team. If that is true, it would be very sad for a school that has been playing football for 128 years. Also, from the pictures I saw from the meet the team event, it looks like they only have 1 senior, so hopefully the numbers will improve in the future. For the 23 that did come out, I applaud them and wish them all the best. Hopefully, they can stay healthy. Also could be another tough season, so I hope that the 23 do not get frustrated, play hard, and give it their all.

Now that OHSAA has announced the new Divisional and Regional assignments, it's time to start thinking about the upcoming season. Unlike some of the other area leagues, there have not been any Division changes for the N10. However, due to some of the changes in those leagues, Bucyrus, Colonel Crawford, and Wynford have been moved from Region 22 to Region 23, which is the "southeast" region. It will be important for playoff travel purposes, for those 3 teams to finish in the top 8. Don't want to chance having to go to the Ohio River area for a 1st playoff game. Upper D4, R14 Carey D6, R22 SE D6, R22 Bucyrus D6, R23 Col. Crawford D6, R 23 Wynford D6, R 23Buc. Central D7, R 25 Mohawk D7, R 26 www.ohsaa.org/news-media/articles/ohsaa-announces-2024-football-divisions-and-regional-assignments This may seem like a pain for those teams, but region 23 is so much worse then region 22 and I think will give Colonel Crawford a chance to make a deep run in the playoffs and Wynford could pick up multiple post season wins. Hell even Bucyrus has a chance to make the playoffs in that region. Not sure about Wynford and playoffs after tonight. I know it’s only one game but couldn’t ask for a worse start

I know it’s only one game but couldn’t ask for a worse start They must have lost more than I expected because they looked really Bad Tonight. I think they’ll have some chances to win some game because the N10 I think will have a down Year all around besides for Carey and CC. BC and Bucyrus will probably both be terrible. Mohawk didn’t look great Either tonight. Seneca East lost there stud QB and other pieces after an already down year. Uppers also lost there POY QB and other pieces. I think Wynford, Seneca East, Upper, and Mohawk could all still finish 3-6 place and could all beat or lose to each either so Wynford certainly still has chances at big Wins.

Wynford took another loss tonight and it’s another tough opponent next week. I just don’t see playoffs for them It's hard to get a good read on how competitive the N10 will be after only two games. Most people will agree on who the top two, and bottom two, will most likely be. As for the middle four, three of them are 1-1, and Wynford is 0-2, but they played two pretty good teams. Depends on who can improve the most going forward in league play. Anything could happen.

Or do they have some classes coming that may have them competing for the N10 soon?

I think Bucyrus goes winless or maybe 1 win and Wynford goes 2-8. Buckeye Central is in a tough spot also in the N10.

Wynford will be 5-5 or 6-4 . Just played 2 good teams to start the year. Look at Carey with a 0-2 record.

But those other two or three wins are not gonna come easy from Mohawk, SE, or Western Reserve. They won't come from CC or Carey.

Wynford didn’t have a chance against Galion in a complete blowout. Carey also played Hopewell who’s always a damn good team. Wynford has another solid opponent in WR who’s put up 76 points in their two games so far

I know I’ve been hard on Wynford but my goodness is the FC just so bad. WR is most likely their second place team. Honestly the FC has gotten worse over the last 5-10 years.
