All three Shreveport-Bossier private schools in the LHSAA football playoffs advanced to state quarterfinal matchups after second-round wins over lower-seeded opponents Friday night.
Loyola gets to stay home for as long as the Flyers keep going in the Select Division II postseason. The Flyers must overcome defending state champion Archbishop Shaw to host a semifinal game.
Parkway is also home this Friday night. The combination of the Panthers’ overtime victory over Hahnville and Ouachita upsetting higher-seeded Destrehan on the road in the Non-Select Division I bracket handed the Panthers a third straight playoff game at Preston Crownover Stadium.
Evangel and Calvary were convincing second-round winners, but so were higher-seeded opponents who will host the locals in quarterfinal games on Black Friday.

Non-Select Division I
No. 14 Ouachita (8-4) at No. 6 Parkway (11-1)
