Berlin-Gorham and John Stark-Hopkinton-Hillsboro Deering are still on a collision course for a game that could very well decide the top seed in the division when they meet at Notre Dame Arena in the regular season finale for both teams.         

#1 Berlin-Gorham (17-0-0)…the Mountaineers played two more games and picked up two more wins on their way to a potential undefeated regular season.  There’s just one game this week on the road at Monadnock-Fall Mountain-Conant on Valentine’s Day.                  

#2 John Stark-Hopkinton-Hillsboro Deering (15-1-0)…the high scoring General Hawks only had one game last week and they routed Pembroke-Campbell 11-2.  They’ll play Laconia in Henniker Wednesday and then at Belmont-Gilford on Saturday.   

#3 Kingswood (10-5-0)…the Knights hung tough against Berlin-Gorham last week, losing their only game of the week 3-1 up north in Berlin.  Kingswood and Kennett renew their Carroll Country rivalry this week in Conway and they also have a home game against Kearsarge-Plymouth.       

#4 Belmont-Gilford (8-6-1)…the Bulldogs jumped Kennett for the number 4 spot in the rankings thanks to a 4-3 win over the Eagles.  Belmont-Gilford then beat Kearsarge-Plymouth 5-1 to move two games over .500 on the season.

#5 Kennett (6-8-2)…the Eagles split two games losing at home against Belmont-Gilford and then bouncing back to beat Pembroke-Campbell 6-3 on the road.  After Kennett plays Kingswood they play Laconia-Winnisquam-Inter Lakes later this week.      

#6 Monadnock-Fall Mountain-Conant (7-7-0)…the Mountaineers haven’t played a game since January 31st so they’ll be busy with six games over the final three weeks of the regular season including games at Kearsarge-Plymouth and home against Berlin-Gorham this week
