7 Greater Cincinnati teams have an opportunity at the state Final Four - a podcast by WCPO

The arrival of cold air throughout Greater Cincinnati this week is a sure sign that it's Week 14 of the high school football season.

"People are complaining about the cold and things like that," Lakota West coach Tom Bolden said with a smile before Tuesday's practice. "I said, 'You know you are doing something right if you are getting to practice in cold weather.'"

Kentucky is in the state quarterfinals while Indiana is in the semi-state round with Lawrenceburg (Class 3A) and East Central (Class 4A) trying to make it to Lucas Oil Stadium next week.
