It could be some areas had to be tweaked because teams didn't play football, yet played other sports. It also could be a school dropped basketball or football before the season, leaving not enough teams to play in the area, so they juggled the areas to make them have at least two teams in the areas. There were several instances back during area play, where there were only two teams in certain areas. There was also one instance where a school was scheduled to play the season in football, yet had to drop football prior to the year starting, after their schedule had already came out. And around the same time, another school which had previously decided not to field a team that year, Akron, I believe, decided to field a team, so they just gave the other teams schedule, area games and all, to the school that decided to field the team.
After I wrote this, I went and looked, and it was Akron that had the weird schedule for two years. I think I remember they decided not to field a football team, but then when the schedules were already made, decided to, yet didn't have any region to be placed in, nor a schedule. At the same time, St. Bernard dropped football, who was in the same area with Calhoun County area teams the previous cycle. That opened up an entire schedule for Akron. They were placed in an area with those teams from the Calhoun County area, way on the other side of the state.
