Western Hills did its part Friday, beating Walnut Hills 35-12 to wrap up a 9-1 season and a second consecutive Queen City Conference championship. Now it waits to learn if it's just the second Cincinnati Public Schools system team ever to make the Ohio football playoffs.

LOCAL PLAYOFF TEAMS

These are projections. Official playoff pairings will be announced Sunday:   DIVISION I   Moeller (9-1)   Colerain (10-0)   St. Xavier (7-3)   Lebanon (10-0)   Elder (6-3)   Fairfield (7-3)   Western Hills (9-1)   Anderson (8-2)   DIVISION II   McNicholas (7-3)   Edgewood (9-1)   Glen Este (7-3)   Loveland (7-3)   Talawanda (7-3)   Kings (6-4) is on the bubble   DIVISION III   New Richmond (10-0)   Purcell Marian (7-3)   DIVISION IV   Wyoming (8-2)   Blanchester (9-1)   Badin (5-5)   Madeira (7-3)   Mariemont (6-4)   DIVISION V   Reading (8-2)   DIVISION VI   Summit CD (8-2)

        The now-defunct Cincinnati Academy of Physical Education is the only such team so far, making the playoffs nine straight seasons from 1985-93. Western Hills was on the bubble for the Division I playoff spots that will be announced Sunday. The loss knocked Walnut Hills out of playoff contention.

        Also Friday:

        • Fairfield beat Winton Woods 24-7 to seemingly guarantee the Indians' second straight trip to the playoffs after a 13-year drought. Winton Woods would've been in if it had won.

        • Roger Bacon may have lost its Division II playoff spot as a result of its 20-19 loss to Northwest. It looks like Kings or Wapakoneta will get the final spot in Division II.

        • Anderson lost a wild shootout with St. Xavier 40-37 but should still qualify for the eighth and final spot playoff in Division I.

        • Glen Este beat Indian Hill 17-7, seemingly ending the Indians' playoff hopes.

        • Mariemont kept its playoff hopes alive with a 36-17 victory over Summit Country Day. The Warriors are on the bubble in Division IV.

        • New Richmond overcame another huge game by Williamsburg's Jason Bainum in a 43-16 victory that wrapped up a 10-0 season for the Lions and knocked Williamsburg out of playoff contention.

        Bainum rushed for 243 yards and a TD on 46 carries, extending his single-season state rushing record to 3,104 yards.

        • Top-ranked Colerain completed a 10-0 season, beating LaSalle 45-21.

        • Wyoming ended Blanchester's unbeaten season 36-34 in overtime.

        Playoff pairings will officially be announced at noon Sunday on The Ohio News Newtwork. ONN is available for Time Warner Digital cable.
