If you’re looking for offense, then look no further than the Nashua High School South boys basketball team.

The Panthers have scored 155 points in two games as they are now 2-0 on the season as a host of games were played on Monday night as many Division I schools want to wrap up the start of the regular season before the start of vacation on Friday. Here’s a look at a busy Nonday that included first wins for some, and also the start of the boys ice hockey season:
