West Jefferson (D6 Region 23; 25 minutes west of Columbus) is looking for a varsity football game on 9/18 (Ohio week 5).

We would prefer to host this game but are open to neutral site options. We would also consider playing on Saturday (9/19) in the afternoon.

OHSAA has made a change to the football playoff format.  Starting this season 12 teams per region will make the playoffs rather than 16.  Go Riders! @dp_dispatch @DispatchFrank @BlackiePreps @OhioCDFCA @WestJeff_AD
