I have a love-hate relationship with predictions.
Before last season, our first covering NEPSAC basketball following our July 2024 launch, I picked Brooks to win Class B. Towards the end of the season, I changed my mind to Rivers – then Brooks went on a legendary run to win the championship. It was a lesson in trusting your gut.
I posted an old-fashioned donut hole in my NEPSAC Championship Sunday predictions last March. Now, I’m a year wiser – or at least that’s what I’m trying to convince myself. As the NEPSAC season gets into full swing this weekend, I’m back for redemption.
Coaches, get your bulletin boards ready. Here are my championship predictions of the top four classes for the 2025-26 NEPSAC boys basketball season.
