Houlton Girls, Easton Boys in State Basketball Finals

Two Aroostook county high school basketball teams are vying for titles in the state finals this weekend.

In a Class B girls match-up, the northern Maine champion Houlton Shiretowners will take on southern Maine’s Gray-New Gloucester Friday night at 7:00 at the Cross Insurance Center in Bangor.

The Houlton girls were the Class C state champs last year and moved to Class B with the restructuring of the teams into north and south divisions this season.

On Saturday afternoon, the action shifts to the Augusta Civic Center, where the #1 Easton Bears will face Valley High School in the Class D Boys State Championship. Game time is 2:45 p.m.

Easton is making its first appearance in a state final game in 36 years.

Good luck to the Houlton Lady Shiretowners and the Easton Bears!
