Regional and State Tournament Pairings and Coverage
 
Spectrum is the Official Television Partner of the OHSAA
Spectrum will provide exclusive television play-by-play coverage of the OHSAA football state championships and other selected football playoff games. Games not televised by Spectrum, including tournament contests in other fall sports, are available for other stations to provide tape-delay telecasts/webcasts. Rights fees apply. Please contact Tim Stried for details.
     Broadcast rates for tape-delayed video telecasts and radio stations that are not OHSAA Radio Network affiliates are posted at: https://ohsaa.org/Portals/0/News/Media/TournamentBroadcastRates.pdf
 
OHSAA Radio Network Set for Football Playoffs and State Championships
The OHSAA Radio Network will produce weekly 30-minute preview shows during November (five shows total). The shows will be emailed to stations on Wednesdays for use before their playoff broadcasts. The network will also broadcast all seven football state championship games December 5-7. There is no charge for stations to carry network broadcasts and affiliates have waived broadcast fees throughout the football playoffs by carrying two or more state championship games from the network. Program logs are created for each game so local stations can insert their own inventory if they desire (24 local avails per game). The network broadcasts are available through Skyview Satellite and an online stream. Contact Tim Stried or visit https://www.ohsaa.org/news/radio
 
Football Playoff Credentials and Press Box Seating
In consultation with the OHSAA’s Media Advisory Committee, a priority seating scale has been established for press boxes during the football playoffs. Host sites are asked to adhere to the scale according to the media list submitted by the two schools participating at their site. The memo is posted at: https://ohsaa.org/Portals/0/Sports/Football/FBMediaPressBoxMemo.pdf
