… Playoff Picture:

As the season marches on, the playoff picture becomes clearer. Nothing certain yet, still a long way to go, but here are the best bets in the SBAAC right now.

• In Div. IV Region 16, Clinton-Massie went from 5th to 3rd after beating Batavia, who dropped from 4th to 6th. Still plenty of points for both teams the rest of the season.

• In Div. III Region 11, New Richmond is No. 10 after defeating Wilmington. But the Lions have points aplenty in the next four weeks if they win out. Will 8-2 be enough if they lose to Massie?

• In Div. V Region 20, Clermont Northeastern hits the charts at No. 7. Alas, the Rockets have teams with a combined record of 4-20 the rest of the way so even 8-2 may leave them on the outside looking in.
