The Maryland High State Basket Title was the dream that so many teams pursued this season. From February 24th through March 3rd, the field was winnowed down until just 4 boys and 4 girls teams remained in each classification from 1A to 4A.

Prince George’s County has three teams in this semi-final round. Each of these teams is hoping to take home a trophy. In order to get to the Semi finals, Dr Henry Wise’s Girl’s basketball team, beat a very good team from C. H. Flowers team (4A). Largo’ s Boy’s (2A) team prevented Frederick Douglas (2A) from have a Cinderella team in both football and basketball. In a classic nail biter, Eleanor Roosevelt (4A) edged Suitland (4A).

2011-2012 Boy’s Playoff Outlook

2011-2012 Girl’s Playoff Outlook

MPSSA 1A Girl’s Bracket

Maryland 2A Girls
This bracket is so tough that the Gwynn Park Girls who won the 1A/2A/3A League Title could only earn a number 3 seed. Largo Douglas and Central also made the playoffs. Largo as the number 5 eying an upset of number 1 Glenelg. Gwynn Park (3) vs Calvert (2) maybe one of the best match ups outside of the State Finals.

MPSSA 1A Girl’s Bracket

Maryland 3A Girls
Friendly is clearly the team to beat in the 3A South Regional. Largo and Crossland are in this region too but they face competition that is just too steep. Friendly will certainly face stiff SMAC competition most likely from outside of Charles County. Huntingtown (Calvert) and Chopticon (St Mary’s) will all seek to knock off the Patriots.

MPSSA 3A Girl’s Bracket

Maryland 4A Girls
All of the Teams in the 4A South Region are Prince George’s County Teams. Wise is clearly the team to beat this year but Flowers has excellent team too. Bowie and Suitland have very solid teams this year. If there is a surprise team look for it to be Eleanor Roosevelt. Still it looks to be the Pumas Year and they may get a chance to avenge last year’s Maryland State Finals loss against Gaithersburg

MPSSA 1A Boy’s Bracket

Maryland 2A Boys
Gwynn Park Yellow Jackets and Largo Lions tied for the Prince George’s 1A/2a/3A League Title and now they have received 1 and 2 seeds in the Maryland 2A South Region. Frederick Douglas is going to host a playoff game and then most likely face Gwynn Park. Central starts off at Calvert who is a very formidable opponent. The likely rubber match between the Jackets and Lions will be a classic.

MPSSA 2A Boy’s Bracket

Maryland 3A Boys
Potomac received a much deserved 2 seed in this region. They split with Gwynn Park and Largo two teams that have been ranked in the Washington Post top 20 so the Wolverines should be ready for the playoffs. Crossland will host a host a home game before possibly facing number 1 seed Thomas Stone Cougars. Friendly earned a 1st round bye but will have to travel to Chopticon (SMAC, St Mary’s) for it’s second round game. Ultimately, the 2A South should come down to a match up between the Wolverines and the Cougars

MPSSA 3A Boy’s Bracket

Maryland 4A Boys
This is an all Prince George’s County region and it stands to be the toughest boy’s basketball region. Flowers (Jaguars) is a very good number 1 seed and Eleanor Roosevelt (Raiders) is a solid number 2 seed but you cannot rule out lower seed Suitland. Duval (3) has proved that they belong this season and they would relish a 4A South Title. Wise is a team to be reckoned with too. In this region do not be surprised if the Raiders take the title.

On Saturday, February 11, 2012 @ 2:00 p.m. the Fairland Sports and Aquatics Complex (13950 Old Gunpowder Road Laurel, MD 20707) will be hosting the Prince George’s County Public High School Swimming Championships. Swimmers from 1A schools through 4A will be competing for county titles in Breast Stroke, Back Stroke, Butterfly Stroke and Free Style. In order to compete in the County Championship Meet, swimmers must exceed qualifying times at least twice in an event during the 2011-2012 swim season. Two of the teams to watch in this meet are Eleanor Roosevelt (4A) and Frederick Douglas (2A)

One of the Stars of the 2011 County Championship, Danielle Jackson (Fairmont Heights), went on to win the State 1A/2A/3A 100 Meter Breast Stroke Title. Danielle swam for the Theresa Banks Swim Club, Inc. outside of school. She was awarded a Swimming Scholarship from North Carolina A&T State University. Many of the swimmers in the 2012 Championship meet have been swimming competitively since they were 5-6 years old. One of the real exceptions is Gwynn Park High School Junior Andre Washington. He started swimming last year and has qualified in the 50 meter and 100 meter Free Style. In swimming, you want to beat the swimmers in the pool with you but the true challenge lies in reaching the wall faster than you have ever done before. Come cheer on these swimmers as they accept this challenge.

Support our Prince George’s County teams and see you at the pool!
