All schools that felt comfortable participating in the open tournament were placed into brackets divided by division and region. Each division was broken down into regions based on location in the state, and opening games were determined by proximity of schools. Records and standings from regular-season games were not taken into account when placing teams in brackets. Numbers assigned to teams are not seeds, but alignment that was generated at random, according to the NHIAA. Teams with the lower number will host games through the first three rounds, with the location for the semifinals and final determined by a blind draw of remaining teams. Teams will be permitted to opt out of the tournament at any time, with the next scheduled opponent moving on automatically to the next round. Following are playoff pairings for all three divisions. ## Division I ### Region 1 - Nashua South, Nashua North, Bishop Guertin, Keene, Merrimack. **Round 1: Monday, Oct. 19** - No. 5 Merrimack 3, No. 4 Nashua South 0 **Prelims: Wednesday, Oct. 21** - No. 2 Keene 6, No. 3 Nashua North 0 - No. 1 Bishop Guertin 4, No. 5 Merrimack 1 **Quarterfinals:** **Saturday, Oct. 24** - No. 2 Keene at No. 1 Bishop Guertin, 2 p.m. ### Region 2 - Manchester Memorial, Manchester Central-West, Bedford, Concord **Prelims: Wednesday, Oct. 21** - No. 4 Manchester Central-West 5, No. 1 Manchester Memorial 0 - No. 3 Concord 1, No. 2 Bedford 0 **Quarterfinals: Saturday, Oct. 24** - No. 3 Concord 3, No. 4 Manchester Central-West 0 ### Region 3 - Winnacunnet, Timberlane, Dover, Exeter **Prelims: Wednesday, Oct. 21** - No. 4 Timberlane 1, No. 1 Winnacunnet 0 - No. 2 Dover 3, No. 3 Exeter 1 **Quarterfinals: Saturday, Oct. 24** - No. 2 Dover 2, No. 4 Timberlane 0 ### Region 4 - Pinkerton, Windham, Londonderry, Salem **Prelims: Wednesday, Oct. 21** - No. 4 Windham at No. 1 Pinkerton, 3 p.m. - No. 2 Londonderry 2, No. 3 Salem 1 **Quarterfinals: Saturday, Oct. 24** - No. 4 Windham 1, No. 2 Londonderry 0 (OT) **Semifinals: Tuesday, Oct. 27** - Windham 3, Bishop Guertin 0 - Dover 3, Concord 2 **Championship: Friday, Oct. 30** - Windham 4, Dover 3 ## Division II ### Region 1 - Oyster River, Portsmouth, Pelham, Sanborn **Prelims: Thursday, Oct. 22** - No. 1 Oyster River 4, No. 4 Portsmouth 2 - No. 2 Pelham 2, No. 3 Sanborn 1 **Quarterfinals: Monday, Oct. 26** - No. 1 Oyster River 2, No. 2 Pelham 1 ### Region 2 - Pembroke, Merrimack Valley, Bow, John Stark **Prelims: Thursday, Oct. 22** - No. 4 Merrimack Valley 6, No. 1 Pembroke 0 - No. 3 John Stark 3, No. 2 Bow 1 **Quarterfinals: Monday, Oct. 26** - No. 4 Merrimack Valley 2, No. 3 John Stark 1 ### Region 3 - Plymouth, Kennett, Kingswood, Lebanon, Hanover **Round 1: Monday, Oct. 19** - No. 5 Kennett 3, No. 4 Plymouth 2 (OT) **Prelims: Thursday, Oct. 22** - No. 5 Kennett 2, No. 1 Kingswood 0 - No. 3 Hanover 2, No. 2 Lebanon 1 (OT) **Quarterfinals: Monday, Oct. 26** - No. 5 Kennett 4, No. 3 Hanover 0 ### Region 4 - Milford, Derryfield, Goffstown, Hollis Brookline, Souhegan **Round 1: Monday, Oct. 19** - No. 5 Derryfield 3, No. 4 Milford 0 **Prelims: Thursday, Oct. 22** - No. 1 Goffstown 4, No. 5 Derryfield 0 - No. 3 Souhegan 4, No. 2 Hollis Brookline 1 **Quarterfinals: Monday, Oct. 26** - No. 3 Souhegan 1, No. 1 Goffstown 0 **Semifinals: Thursday, Oct. 29** - Souhegan 6, Oyster River 0 - Kennett 2, Merrimack Valley 0 **Championship: Sunday, Nov. 1** - Kennett 2, Souhegan 0 ## Division III ### Region 1 - Gilford, St. Thomas, Franklin, Laconia, Winnisquam **Round 1: Monday, Oct. 19** - No. 4 Gilford 3, No. 5 St. Thomas 0 **Prelims: Friday, Oct. 23** - No. 4 Gilford 7, No. 1 Franklin 0 - No. 3 Winnisquam 2, No. 2 Laconia 1 **Quarterfinals: Sunday, Oct. 25** - No. 4 Gilford 2, No. 3 Winnisquam 1 ### Region 2 - Mascoma Valley, Kearsarge, Stevens, Newport **Prelims: Friday, Oct. 23** - No. 1 Mascoma Valley 2, No. 4 Kearsarge 1 (penalty strokes) - No. 2 Stevens 3, No. 3 Newport 1 **Quarterfinals: Sunday, Oct. 25** - No. 1 Mascoma Valley 1, No. 2 Stevens 0 ### Region 3 - Hopkinton, Mascenic, Conant, Monadnock, Bishop Brady **Round 1: Monday, Oct. 19** - No. 4 Hopkinton 5, No. 5 Mascenic 0 **Prelims: Friday, Oct. 23** - No. 4 Hopkinton 6, No. 1 Conant 0 - No. 3 Bishop Brady 8, No. 2 Monadnock 0 **Quarterfinals: Monday, Oct. 26** - No. 3 Bishop Brady 3, No. 4 Hopkinton 2 ### Region 4 - Littleton, Newfound, Berlin, White Mountains **Prelims: Friday, Oct. 23** - No. 4 Newfound 1, No. 1 Littleton 0 - No. 2 Berlin 3, No. 3 White Mountains 0 **Quarterfinals: Sunday, Oct. 25** - No. 2 Berlin 2, No. 4 Newfound 1 **Semifinals: Wednesday, Oct. 28** - Berlin 1, Gilford 0 - Bishop Brady 2, Mascoma Valley 1 (OT) **Championship: Sunday, Nov. 1** - Bishop Brady vs. Berlin
