The high school basketball season wrapped up in New Hampshire last weekend, but there was still one prize left to claim.
Division I
DURHAM – After winning the Division I championship two years ago, the Pinkerton Academy boys basketball team took its lumps during a rebuild last winter and didn’t even qualify for the tournament. The Astros grew together through that experience and they came into this season with some optimism, whi
Division II
DURHAM – There was no doubt for the Hollis Brookline High School boys basketball about the amount of physicality it would have to endure – and match – if the Cavaliers wanted to finish off their season undefeated in Sunday’s Division II championship game against Pelham. HB brought the fight against
Division I
ROCHESTER - Through one half of basketball, Ray Farmer felt like his Trinity High School boys basketball team was playing like it had already lost Wednesday's Division I semifinal. Instead, the Pioneers trailed Bedford by just four points after the first 16 minutes, and Farmer told them, they hadn'

Here are the boys basketball all-state teams for all four divisions, as selected by the New Hampshire Basketball Coaches Organization.
Division II
ROCHESTER – When Ryan Kelley took over as coach of the Hollis Brookline High School boys basketball team three years ago, he envisioned that this would be the season the Cavaliers would take a major step in the evolution of the program. Kelley’s vision board was right, and HB is one win away from a
Division II
ROCHESTER — Brady Hegan only knew seasons that ended with championships during his first two years on the Pelham High School basketball team, so there was a void when his team didn’t win any hardware last winter.

Division II
MANCHESTER - There was one thing the Manchester West High School boys basketball team hadn't done all year and that was lose a game on its home court. The Blue Knights weren't going to let it happen in their final game there this season. No. 3 West broke open a close game early in the fourth quarter
Division I
MANCHESTER - When the game is on the line, there’s nobody else Trinity High School boys basketball coach Ray Farmer would rather have the ball than Jamar Gregory-Alleyne. The senior guard missed a shot that would’ve given his team the win late in the fourth quarter, but he delivered in overtime. Gr
Division I
DERRY – While the dynamic trio of Wilson Youssef, Joshua Phanor and Brady Sullivan all had stellar seasons going, Pinkerton Academy boys basketball coach Mike Dunham felt like they hadn't all played great in one game together until the Astros ended Portsmouth's undefeated season two weeks ago. It ap
Division II
HOLLIS - James Arthur isn’t your prototypical point guard, but he commands the floor. And when he took command of the offense in the second half, nothing could stop the Hollis Brookline High School boys basketball team. HB led by seven at halftime, but broke the game open in the second half as the N
Division I
NASHUA – For at least Wednesday night, Shane Lemire's name was changed to Shane Le-fire. That's because the Nashua High School South junior was hot as could be in the opening quarter of the No. 7 Panthers' 59-36 Division I boys basketball preliminary round win over No. 10 Windham at the Belanger Gy
