Skyview caps regular season with 7-4 record

Week 10 Capsules: Local Teams Jockey for Playoff Position, Out-of-Area Action Awaits

The final week of the 2026 prep football regular season is here, and the stakes couldn’t be higher. For local teams, it’s a frantic scramble to secure playoff seeding or even earn a bid at all. For fans looking to see what’s happening beyond their immediate area, the postseason is a chance to discover new contenders, though it often requires a subscription to watch. As The Columbian reported, one local program, Skyview, capped its regular season with a 7-4 record, a solid mark that pushed the team’s all-time record to an impressive 98-30 (.766).

Across the region, Week 10 is less about final standings and more about the fight to get into the tournament and, once there, to secure a favorable matchup. A win for either team this week would dramatically boost their postseason chances. Meanwhile, the Marin Catholic and American Canyon matchup is a clash of first-year league opponents who have already secured their playoff tickets, but are now focused on avoiding a tough draw against a powerhouse like De La Salle.

The Battle for the Final Spots

The most critical game in Marin County this week might be the Justin-Serra at Terra Linda contest on Saturday afternoon. A victory for Terra Linda, the Trojans, would improve their record and let them decide their own playoff fate. This game's result will decide which small schools in the section make the playoffs.

Teams Vie for Playoff Seeding

For teams already locked into the playoffs, the focus has shifted to seeding. Marin Catholic (5-4, No. 6) and American Canyon (5-4, No. 31) face off on Friday at 7:15 p.m. in their second and final league matchup as Adobe Division foes. Both teams are assured of a playoff berth, but MC’s recent 47-10 win over San Marin helped them climb the rankings. As Marinij.com explained, maintaining or improving their No. 6 seed this week is crucial because it would allow them to avoid a brutal first-round matchup against the perennial powerhouse De La Salle or a tough game against Pittsburg. Currently, MC is lined up for a trip to No. 3 San Ramon Valley.

What It Means for the Community

The final week of the season brings battles for playoff positioning. A win would boost the Trojans’ chances considerably. For fans who want to watch out-of-area playoff action, a subscription to the NFHS Network is the most reliable option. As noted in the initial report, a limited-time offer allows new subscribers to get unlimited access for four weeks for just $1. While some games may be available through local outlets or school districts, the NFHS subscription provides the most comprehensive coverage of high school sports from across the country.
