Prep football

Following Friday night's games, the matchups for the Alabama High School Athletic Association (AHSAA) Class 1A-6A football playoff semifinals have been established.

Four teams from the Lagniappe coverage area are still chasing a state championship and two of those teams will square off in next week's semifinals. In Class 6A, Saraland defeated Homewood in a wild, 57-56 overtime game, putting the Spartans in the semifinals against No. 1-ranked and Region 1 foe Theodore. The Bobcats defeated St. Paul's 28-0 Friday. The matchup guarantees a team from the area will play for the 6A state championship on Friday, Dec. 2 at 7 p.m. at Auburn's Jordan-Hare Stadium.
