JACKSON, Ohio —The postseason road is now set for six Ohio volleyball teams in the Ohio Valley Publishing area, and half of those local squads earned home games following the 2011 sectional tournament drawings for divisions II, III and IV held Sunday at Jackson High School.

Unbeaten Eastern came away with a No. 1 seed in Division IV and will start the postseason at home, as will both Meigs and South Gallia. Gallia Academy, River Valley and Southern all begin their tournament quests on the road.

The TVC Hocking-leading Lady Eagles (19-0) were the only local team to earn a No. 1 seed, and the Green and White will begin their D-4 tournament in a sectional final matchup on Thursday, Oct. 20, against the winner of the Symmes Valley-Miller contest at 6 p.m.

The Lady Rebels (15-4) earned a No. 4 seed and will also have a D-4 sectional final home match against No. 5 Southern (8-9) on Thursday, Oct. 20, at 6 p.m.

In Division III, Meigs (7-10) earned a six-seed and will face No. 11 Oak Hill (7-13) in a sectional semifinal at 6 p.m. on Tuesday, Oct. 18, in Rocksprings. The winner of that match will travel to the winner of the Wheelersburg-Fairland contest on Saturday, Oct. 22, for a sectional final at 4 p.m.

River Valley (12-9) earned a 10-seed and will travel to No. 7 Chesapeake on Tuesday, Oct. 18, for a sectional semifinal contest at 6 p.m. The winner of that contest will travel to the winner of the Zane Trace-Rock Hill contest on Saturday, Oct. 22, for a sectional final at 4 p.m.
