The 2023\2024 high school basketball season officially opens on Dec. 8.  That is the date that high schools are eligible to play their first countable games.

For the most part, girls' teams kick things off with their season openers on Dec. 8. The Jonesport-Beals Royalettes travel to Machias for a matchup with the Lady Bulldogs.  Calais journeys up to Lincoln to face Mattanawcook Academy, and Woodland plays the Narraguagus Lady Knights in Harrington.
