Plymouth won the Division III championship and dropped down a division. Hollis-Brookline, a program that never qualified for the playoffs in Division IV, moved up to Division III. Epping joined forces with Newmarket to form a co-op program. Bedford, Sanborn, Inter-Lakes and Mascoma joined the varsity ranks, and the NHIAA added a sixth division. A lot has happened since five state champions were crowned last November. Here's how the NHIAA's six-division alignment will look this fall:

DIVISION I: Concord, Londonderry, Manchester Central, Manchester Memorial, Manchester West, Nashua North, Nashua South, Pinkerton Academy and Salem.

DIVISION II: Alvirne, Bishop Guertin, Dover, Exeter, Keene, Merrimack, Spaulding, Timberlane and Winnacunnet.

DIVISION III: Bedford, Con-Val, Goffstown, Hollis-Brookline, John Stark, Milford, Pembroke, Portsmouth and Souhegan.

DIVISION IV: Hanover, Kennett, Kingswood, Laconia, Lebanon, Merrimack Valley, Monadnock, Plymouth and Sanborn.

DIVISION V: Bishop Brady, Bow, Epping, Kearsarge, Pelham, Somersworth, St. Thomas, Stevens and Trinity.

DIVISION VI: Campbell, Fall Mountain, Farmington, Franklin, Gilford, Inter-Lakes, Mascoma, Newfound, Newport and Winnisquam.
