The Iowa high school football playoff picture has narrowed to the final eight teams in each class as teams get set for the state quarterfinals . After the Round-of-16, just three Iowa City-area teams remain alive and will now battle for a spot in next week's state semifinal.

Solon took down Fairfield at home as Maddox Kelley proved again he's hard to slow down. And Regina, which plays its best at home, took care of Sigourney Keota, 49-13.
