Congratulations to the Pinkerton Astros and the Milford Spartans for winning NH boys basketball state Championships yesterday at the University of New Hampshire’s Lundholm Gym!
2nd seed Pinkerton(18-4) topped #1 Winnacunnet(18-4) 61-59 in a double overtime thriller for the Class L title, while #1 seed Milford(21-1) edged 2nd seed Pembroke(19-3) 52-46 in Class I.
Pinkerton’s Zach Mathieu broke the Class L Final game individual scoring record(BG’s Skip Barry had 34 in the 1984 title game) with a monster 37 point game, including 17 in the 2 overtime periods.
Milford’s Mike O’Loughlin scored a team high 23 points and had the decisive offensive rebound and putback that sealed the win in the final 10 seconds.
Both games were broadcast LIVE on Sports Radio WGAM “The Game” and will be available to be downloaded soon on this website.
