MAC Builds on Success (By Gary Rasberry, Celina Daily Standard) The Midwest Athletic Con- ference started in 1973, but it wasn’t until 1989 that the conference began its run of football dominance of the smaller divisions. From 1989, when Minster won the conference’s first state title, to 2015 when Fort Recovery won its first-ever state title and Coldwater cap- tured its sixth since 2005, the MAC has been regular visitors to the state championships game. In that span, the MAC has been missing from state championship weekend only three years (1991, 1993 and 2002). In 2003, Versailles, a five-time state champion before joining in the MAC in 2000, won its first MAC state football title, starting a streak where the MAC has brought home at least one title from either Stark County (Massillon or Canton) or Ohio Stadium every season except the 2009 season. In 2005, the MAC had its first double-championship weekend as Coldwater won the Division IV title in Canton and Delphos St. John’s won the Division VI state title a few hours later in Massillon. The MAC has had two football state champions eight times since 2005 (2005, 2006, 2007, 2012, 2013, 2014, 2015 and 2017. In 2014, the MAC made state history in becoming the first con- ference to win three state football championship titles in the same season Coldwater, Minster and Marion Local swept Divisions V, VI and VII. The MAC is 4-1 in Div. VII state championship games. The MAC is 72-4 in first round playoff games against non-MAC schools since the playoffs expanded to eight qualifiers per region in 1999. (The four losses include a Versailles loss to Lima Central Catholic in 2005, a Delphos St. John’s loss to Arlington in 2014 and Anna losses in 2017 and 2018.) The MAC is 51-13 against non-MAC schools in OHSAA regional championship games. The MAC is 36-7 in state semifinal games against non-MAC schools. As of November 11, 2018, the MAC has won 130 various OHSAA state team championships, including 33 in football.

Before the Playoffs… Historians have found that in most years since 1895, the media or a specific organization named an Ohio high school football state champion. The Associated Press began its polls in 1947 and the OHSAA created the playoffs in 1972. The research of mythical state champions dating back to 1895 has been compiled on the football page at OHSAA.org. 2018 OHSAA Football Regional Final Pairings Pairings listed by seed, with record included.
