MIAA D3 boys basketball tournament 2026: Full schedule, bracket and results

Division 3 in MIAA boys basketball has seen a different champion every year since 2014. Will the theme continue in 2026?

Hanover, which last won the championship in 2017, is this year's No. 1 seed after going 19-1 this season. Salem — which ended the regular season at No. 5 in our MIAA boys Top 10 — is the No. 2 seed. Tewksbury and Swampscott round out the top four. Last year's two finalists — runner-up Old Rochester and defending champion Norwell — are No. 7 and No. 13, respectively.

The better seed will host games through the quarterfinals. A state champion will be crowned the weekend of March 13-15 at the Tsongas Center in Lowell.
