CHARLESTON, W.Va. (WCHS) — High School football playoff injunctions have been overturned by the West Virginia Supreme Court, resulting in a clear path for the postseason.

Hoover (9-2) returns to The Met for a highly anticipated showdown with Opelika (9-2). The Bulldogs' head coach has been suspended for the game for violation of the coaches conduct. In 6A, Parker (10-1) hits the road for a rematch with Mountain Brook (8-3).

Even though there won’t be a single game played this Friday, it’s been a busy week for high school football in north central West Virginia. But how did we get here?
