Inside the Lines: Regional semifinal showdowns for area teams

In this week’s episode of Inside the Lines, Curt Conrad, Hayden Gray and Zac Hiser break down the third week of Ohio’s new-look postseason -- where the top seeds are holding strong and north central Ohio teams are still making noise. We start with a post-mortem on Lexington and Ashland after tough playoff losses, and look ahead to what’s next for both programs in 2026. Then the focus shifts to Shelby, which faces a high-powered Lima Bath squad led by one of the region’s most explosive offenses, and Galion who is making their deepest playoff run since the 1980s.

We preview a massive Division V showdown between Centerburg and Colonel Crawford, where the winner punches a ticket to the regional final, and check in on Hillsdale and Danville as both powerhouses look to stay on a collision course for a potential rematch. With weather on their side and four of five area teams hosting, we set the stage for another action-packed Friday night of playoff football.
