Main Story

St. Tammany’s regular-season finale is packed with rivalry games and district-title stakes. Mandeville can finish unbeaten, while Northshore, Salmen and Pope John Paul II have opportunities to make program history. Several teams also face pivotal tests that could shape their playoff seeding.

By the Numbers
  • Mandeville is 9-0 and seeks its first undefeated regular season since 2000.
  • Northshore is 8-1; a win would give the Panthers their first nine-win season.
  • PJP II coach Philip Pigott is tied for the school record with 38 career wins.
  • St. Paul’s and Covington have played their rivalry game since 1935.
Yes, But

Several teams control their playoff outlook, but the stakes vary: Mandeville and Northshore could earn first-round byes, while Slidell, Salmen and Lakeshore are chasing stronger postseason positions. Salmen’s district-title outcome could also depend on the Lakeshore–Pearl River result.

What's Next

Friday’s games will determine district champions and could significantly affect playoff seeding. The biggest matchups include Northshore at Slidell, Hannan at Salmen and Jewel Sumner at PJP II.

Bottom Line

Week 10 is more than a regular-season finale: it’s a chance for local programs to secure titles, byes and momentum before the playoffs begin.
