The winter high school season comes to a close today at the University of New Hampshire’s Lundholm Gym, and the Hollis Brookline boys basketball team is hoping to make it a day to remember.

The No. 1, 20-0 Cavaliers will take on No. 2, 16-4 Pelham today at noon in the Division II championship game. The Cavs bested Pelham almost exactly three months ago, 69-60 on Dec. 16. Both teams have come a long way since, and this Cavs team – HB last won it all in 2018 – got a taste of the bright lights in the semis.

“In a way, we’ve been in this environment before,” HB coach Ryan Kelley said. “But win, lose or draw, helluva season and these kids have done an awesome job.”

HB was led by James Arthur, who averaged 17.0 points a game, plus 6-6 center Alton Williams at 16.3. Pelham has been paced by Luke Estell (16.3) and Brady Hegan (14.9).

In the second game at 4 p.m., it will be No. 3 Trinity (18-3), coached by Nashua North and Daniel Webster College alum Ray Farmer, vs. No. 4 Pinkerton (18-3). Trinity won the regular season meeting between the two, 86-70, back on Feb. 5 in Derry.
