![No surprise to see Bedford is the top rated team in the state.](https://storage.ghost.io/c/bc/58/bc5866d0-9fd9-4113-b959-670d6f16471d/content/images/www-nh-highschoolsports-com/wp-content/uploads/2014/02/jmbhsbball012914-b44-3.jpg)

No surprise to see Bedford is the top rated team in the state.

On Monday, we took a look at the top boys basketball teams in the state. Now it's time to do the same with the girls.

Below are rankings of all girls basketball teams in each division, along with the top 20 teams in the state, regardless of division. How were the teams ranked? By using the Heal Point System, the process used in Maine to rank teams, and you might remember, that was used in New Hampshire for all Class I team during the 2009-2010 school year. For more on how the rankings were compiled, [go here.](http://www.mpa.cc/interscholastic-division/heal-point-system.html?ref=nh-highschoolsports.com)

As with any ranking system, there are flaws. For example, the HPS doesn’t take into consideration margin of victory or quality of a loss. It does, however, rank based on number of wins and the quality of those wins.

Here are the rankings

### New Hampshire Top 20

**Team (record), division, rating**

1. Bedford (12-0), Division I, 200.2
2. Londonderry (12-1), Division I, 177.5
3. Bishop Guertin (11-3), Division I, 141.8
4. Campbell (15-1), Division III, 133.7
5. Hinsdale (15-0), Division IV, 132.6
6. Souhegan (11-2), Division II, 130.5
7. Pinkerton (10-2), Division I, 129.3
8. Hanover (11-2), Division II, 125.8\*
9. Milford (12-1), Division II, 124.8
10. Newfound (15-1), Division III, 123.7
11. Fall Mountain (14-1), Division III, 119.7\*
12. Lebanon (11-4), Division II, 110.1
13. Sunapee (14-1), Division IV, 109
14. Merrimack Valley (10-3), Division II, 107.2
15. Pembroke (9-5), Division II, 105.9
16. Bishop Brady (13-2), Division III, 103.7
17. Groveton (15-1), Division IV, 101.1
18. Portsmouth (10-3), Division II, 97.8
19. Woodsville (14-2), Division IV, 94.9
20. Winnacunnet (8-4), Division I, 91.4

Not surprising that Bedford and Londonderry would have ratings that would make them the top two teams. Bishop Guertin is a bit of a surprise, as is seeing a Division III and IV team come in before a Division II team.

Souhegan came in as the top Division II team thanks to its win over Milford, which actually has the best record in the division. Hanover also ranks high thanks to its two wins over Lebanon. And with seven teams in the top 20, Division II appears to be the deepest - and most wide-open - in the state.

Division IV is interesting as well. There are a lot of teams with good records, but a lot of those wins have come against the bottom of the division. That should make for an unpredictable postseason.
