Our favorite time of the season!  State Championship Season kicks off this week with 3 different championship meets in NH; two JV State Championship meets and the Middle School Championship meets (Saturday).  It all begins with the D2/D3 JV State Meet on Wednesday hosted by Coe-Brown and continues on Friday for the D1 JV State Meet hosted by Alvirne High School.

While JV State Meets are difficult to predict, historically we have seen some trends.  Beginning with Division 2 for example.  The girls race usually comes down to Souhegan, Oyster River, or Hanover.  The schools with great tradition and depth are usually found at the top of the team results.  For the D2 boys, expect to see Oyster River, Coe-Brown, and Hanover battling it out.

Division 1 may be just as difficult to predict as Bishop Guertin has become a deep team for both genders.  Traditionally Pinkerton is strong with the ‘Trailblazers’ and the ‘Long Red Line’.  Also look for Concord, Londonderry, Winnacunnet, Keene, and Dover.  And don’t count out Windham!

Bottom line, the hay is basically in the barn!  Time to show what great summers and a fall full of racing will produce!  NHCC will be at ALL of them!  This Hub will host everything that has to do with the JV State Championships! Good luck to all!
