CHAPEL HILL, N.C. – The Independence Patriots returned to the 4A State Championship Game for the first time since 1997, when they knocked off Richmond County. The second trip to a State Final was a pretty similar picture as the Patriots played solid team basketball on their way to a 71-60 victory over Heritage.
RALEIGH, N.C. – In a highly anticipated matchup of a pair of defending state champions, it was the defending 3A State Champions, Cox Mill, that held on to down last year’s 2A State Champions, Northside-Jacksonville, by a narrow 65-63 margin.
The two teams played a very tight first half, with Cox Mill taking a slim 36-31 lead into the halftime break, but the Chargers came out firing in the third quarter, raising their lead to as many as 13 around the midway point of the third frame.
RALEIGH, N.C. – Northern Guilford led the whole way and pushed out to as much as a 19-point lead in the first half, as the Nighthawks powered their way past Jacksonville to the 3A Women’s Basketball State Championship. The Nighthawks earned their second straight State Championship with the victory.
CHAPEL HILL, N.C. – Southeast Raleigh built a 12-point lead early in the first quarter, but the defending 4A State Champions from Northwest Guilford slowly battled and scrapped their way back into the game for a 44-36 victory and their second straight State Championship.
CHAPEL HILL, N.C. – The Forest Hills Yellow Jackets saw their State Championship dreams die in the Regional Finals each of the last two years. This year’s team got over that hump, earning the school their first state championship berth since 1964, and with a 63-59 win over Greene Central in the 2A State Championship, won their first State Championship in Men’s Basketball.
Winston-Salem Prep dominated defensively in the second half, holding Pamlico County to just 16 points in the final 16 minutes, on the way to a 70-46 victory and the Phoenix’s fifth State Championship in school history.
CHAPEL HILL, N.C. – North Pitt never trailed North Wilkes as the Panthers powered their way to a 63-42 victory over the Vikings in the 2A Women’s Basketball Championship. The Panthers claimed the school’s third State Championship in Women’s Basketball.
Nyjanique Langley was the star two years ago for North Pitt in their 2016 2A Championship victory, and she had another big game in this year’s game. Langley exploded for 33 points, snatching 16 rebounds on her way to her second Kay Yow 2A Women’s Basketball Championship Most Valuable Player award.
RALEIGH, N.C. – Mount Airy and Pamlico County faced off in the 1A Women’s Basketball State Championship Game for the second year in a row, and once again the Granite Bears came out firing on all cylinders on their way to a 69-32 victory and a second straight state championship.
