Basketball - Boys Varsity
The first chapter in the over a century-long history of Berkshire Basketball began with the 1913 Greens winning 80-percent of their games. For more than 100 years, Berkshire has begun each season with the same goal: A Standard of Excellence. The Standard is the Standard. Berkshire competes in the Class A Division of the storied New England Preparatory School Athletic Council (NEPSAC) league. The season culminates with an 8-team Playoff where a champion is crowned. Individual development is nurtured in a 'team first' environment. The basketball program that has enjoyed multiple 20-win seasons, and has twice achieved the ultimate team prize of winning the NEPSAC Championship. We want members of our program to approach each day with the mindset of maximizing every opportunity life under the Mountain has to offer. Berkshire Basketball annually sends student-athletes to all three levels of NCAA Basketball.
