Leader-Telegram - Early Friday evening Keenan Dahl was losing his voice, operating on just three hours of sleep Thursday night and a bunch of teenagers were threatening to shave his head.And he was loving every minute of it.New Auburn, which just two years ago ended a 31-game losing streak, qualified for the WIAA football playoffs with a triple-overtime victory over Lake Holcombe on Thursday night. It's the first time the Trojans have been to the postseason since 2001."It was kind of a crazy day," Dahl said. "We had a lot of stuff going on. A lot of e-mails, a lot of compiling stats, a lot of congratulations going around."There was a buzz in the air all day. The kids were pretty pumped about it and everyone is excited."The Trojans play at Gilman (8-1), which won the Cloverwood Conference title and is a No. 2 seed in Division 7. All first round games are scheduled for 7 p.m. Tuesday night.Dahl had to calm down his players a bit before Friday's practice to get them to focus on the task at hand.Not that you can blame them. New Auburn hasn't won more than two games in a season since making the playoffs and lost its first three games of this season by a combined score of 119-16. That's when defensive coordinator Mike Dombrowski said he would get a Mohawk if the Trojans made the playoffs."We're having a pep rally on Tuesday and the players are going to shave it then," said Dahl, adding that his players are trying to do the same for him but he's not biting.Another team breathing a sigh of relief Friday was Fall Creek. According to analysis done by www.WisFootball.net, the Crickets were the last team to make the playoff field. Not all teams with a .500 conference record are guaranteed spots. Fall Creek, which lost to Altoona on Thursday night to finish 4-4 in the Cloverbelt, squeaked in on one of the tiebreakers the WIAA uses to determine which teams make the field and which ones don't. The Crickets (4-5) play at Whitehall.Elsewhere:- In Division 1, Chippewa Falls (9-0) - as expected - received a No. 1 seed and hosts Bay Port (7-2), which was the odd team out and has to travel 3 hours on a school night. The Big Rivers champion Cardinals will play either Green Bay Preble (7-2) or No. 4 seed Appleton North (7-2) in the second round if they beat Bay Port. - Menomonie's 30-28 victory over River Falls was huge in terms of playoff seedings. The Indians (6-3) received a No. 3 seed and host Merrill (6-3). The Wildcats (6-3) were sent on the road to play No. 4 seed La Crosse Central.- In Division 4, Dunn-St. Croix champion Mondovi (8-1) earned a No. 1 seed in a grouping of local schools that could make deep playoff runs. Durand (5-4) travels 17 miles down Highway 37 to play the Buffaloes. Bloomer (7-2), which won its first seven games of the season, has to go on the road to play No. 4 seed St. Croix Falls (8-1). At the other end of the grouping, Somerset (6-3) earned the No. 2 seed ahead of Baldwin-Woodville (8-1). The teams shared the Middle Border title after Somerset handed Baldwin-Woodville its first loss Thursday. Altoona (5-4) plays at the third-seeded Blackhawks while Somerset hosts St. Croix Central (7-2).- Some area teams in Division 6 received tough draws.Eleva-Strum (7-2), the defending Division 7 champions, moved up one division and gets to play at five-time defending state champion Stratford (8-1) in the first round. On the other side of the bracket, two overtime losses hurt Owen-Withee (7-2). The Blackhawks have to play at top seed Edgar (9-0). Stratford and Edgar have been the two best small schools in The Associated Press poll all season. Edgar beat Stratford, 16-8, in Week 8.Considering the alternatives, Eau Claire Regis (5-4) somewhat received a break with its draw. It plays at No. 2 seed Blair-Taylor (8-1), which won the Dairyland Conference.- Chippewa Falls McDonell was bumped down to Division 7 and plays at No. 3 Frederic (5-3).WIAA PLAYOFFSAll games 7 p.m. TuesdayDivision 1Chippewa Falls BracketBay Port (7-2) at No. 1 Chippewa Falls (9-0)Green Bay Preble (7-2) at No. 4 Appleton North (7-2)Hudson (6-3) at No. 3 Stevens Point (7-2)Superior (6-3) at No. 2 D.C.
