The Cienega Bobcats closed out their regular season with a 16-6 victory over Buena Thursday night at home and the team will have to wait until Tuesday to see where they fit in the playoff picture. Ranked No. 10 coming into the game with Buena, Cienega is currently in line to host a play-in game next Wednesday for a shot at the state playoffs. Ranked No. 25, Buena still has one more chance to break into the top 24 to secure one of those play-in spots.

Buena (7-10 in ranking games) will travel to play No. 12 Ironwood Ridge (11-6) on Friday for what amounts to a playoff game for the Colts. Even with a victory, there might not be enough power points to get a berth, however….
