All of the playoffs brackets are set with the exception of Division I. Several teams who have qualified have declined the invitation to participate. We are awaiting a response from another school with whom we offered an invitation. We hope to have that answer Sunday morning and we will reissue the brackets.
Please note that the Eastern Football Conference will meet with all of the playoff teams on Monday, November 9th at 11:00 AM at the Mohegan Sun Casino in Wilkes Barre. At that meeting the dates and times will be set for the contests.
It is extremely important for all playoff schools to have someone in attendance to pick up your contest packets and other pertinent information regarding the tournament.
Here are your match-ups:
Division IV will feature North #1 Pleasant Valley hosting South #2 Reading and South #1 Emmaus hosting North #2 Williamsport.
Division III will feature #1 Jim Thorpe hosting #4 Southern Lehigh (wild card) and #2 Valley View hosting #3 Allentown Central Catholic.

UPDATED Eastern Conference Rankings – October 28, 2015
Some errors were found in the rankings sent out last night.
I mistakenly had Cowanesque Valley listed as a AA school. Thank you Mr. Zack for clarifying that. As a result, point totals for Wellsboro, Muncy, Sayre, South Williamsport, and Athens were altered.
Additionally, I incorrectly entered Central Columbia as an opponent for Shikellamy instead of Central Mountain which as a result increased their point total.
Pleasant Valley is actually ranked ahead of Scranton therefore Pleasant Valley should be highlighted as leading for an EFC berth and Scranton should not have been highlighted.
Some more notes……..according to Mr. Ognosky, the District II Football Chairman, Scranton and West Scranton are slated to make up their game that was postponed during their school district strike. The teams are slated to play on Tuesday, November 3.
