AHSAA 1A-6A playoff musings and the 7A playoff match ups are set. 

  Mother Nature had plans of her own this weekend and altered many of the 1st round playoff series throughout the state. A lot of series were moved back a day and started on Saturday but a few series will play games 1 and 2 today with an if necessary game 3 scheduled for Tuesday. The 7A playoff picture is clear now as teams in Alabama's largest classification finished area play last week and are gearing up for their first round match ups this weekend. We will have more content out this week as teams prepare for next weekend's 2nd round.
