Divisions 5 through 8 also show Top 32 teams and current scores, along with 8-player brackets, reflecting a rapidly changing playoff picture.

Division 3 and Division 4 are tied for the final playoff spot, with Garden City vs. Gaylord and Charlotte vs. Marysville currently deadlocked; head-to-head results serve as the first tiebreaker, followed by opponent winning percentage or strength of schedule if needed.

The article provides external links to the MHSAA adjusted strength-of-schedule table and Week 5 highlights and coverage.

All four tied teams still have opportunities to influence the outcome on the field in their remaining games.

In Division 3, the Top 32 features teams like Port Huron, Chelsea, Mount Pleasant, Coopersville, Mason, Detroit Martin Luther King, Harper Woods, Middleville Thornapple Kellogg, Zeeland West, and others, with recent scores noted.

Division 2’s Top 32 includes South Lyon East, Temperance Bedford, Gibraltar Carlson, Byron Center, Orchard Lake St. Mary’s, Caledonia, North Farmington, Allen Park, and others, with scores.

Division 1’s Top 32 lists teams such as Clarkston, Romeo, East Kentwood, Detroit Catholic Central, Northville, Howell, Grand Ledge, and Saline, with records and playoff-point scores.

The MHSAA uses playoff-point averages to determine postseason berths, with the top 32 teams in Divisions 1-8 (and the top 16 in 8-player Divisions 1 and 2) earning berths.

Marysville would secure the final D4 spot over Charlotte based on opponent win percentage, with Charlotte at .480 and Marysville at .680 due to strength of schedule.

Garden City would claim the final D3 spot over Gaylord based on opponent winning percentage (.360 vs .320).
