Two local boys basketball teams were on the road on Wednesday night in postseason play, and, well, one out of two isn’t bad.

Souhegan picked up a big win at Kingswood in the Division II prelims, while Merrimack wasn’t as fortunate at Bedford in the Division I first round.

Here’s a look:

DIVISION II PRELIMS

NO. 11 SOUHEGAN, 64, NO. 6 KINGSWOOD 42

The Sabers improved to 11-8, avenging a recent one-point loss, and advanced to Friday’s quarterfinals thanks to 18 points apiece by Wes Hickman and Joe Mayo. Mayo’s points came on six 3-pointers, five in the first half after which the Sabers led 34-20.

Evan Bernasconi added 11 for the Sabers, who will be at Manchester West on Saturday in the Division II quarterfinals.

DIVISON I PRELIMS

NO. 2 BEDFORD 74, NO. 14 MERRIMACK 42

The Tomahawks were a tough team all season, but offensively they just couldn’t match what the Bulldogs were able to do on Wednesday night.

Merrimack’s season ends at 7-12 while 16-2 Bedford hopes to avenge an earlier loss to Nashua South on Saturday in the quarterfinals in Bedford.
