As we approach the end of the regular season, Strath Haven and other high school football fans will be wondering what the playoff schedule may look like. With one game still to be played, lots can change in terms of how teams are playing at a given moment. Injuries, talent of upcoming opponents, weather, and many other factors could impact this week. That being said, we’re taking our best guess as to where teams could land as the 5A District 1 playoffs begin on 11/3/23.
Please note that this is simply a prediction, and it could change drastically this week. It is not meant to disparage or downplay any of the efforts of any teams in the weeks ahead– it’s simply our quick estimation, based on the PIAA’s Power Ranking System, of where teams may (or may not) be playing that first week in November. Ultimately, this is just for fun. We’re not worried about being “right” or “wrong” in the predictions, as the teams will play it out on the field. “That’s why they play the games…” 🙂
