Basketball - Varsity Girls
2020 - 2021Head Coach: Courtney CheethamThe Derryfield School Varsity Girls' Basketball Program has been under the direction of Coach Natalie Wilson for the past two seasons. Last year the girls made a deep playoff run eventually losing in the semi-finals to the State champion, Littleton. Previously, Coach Ed Lemire guided the Cougars starting in November of 1984. In 29 seasons, the team saw much success, qualifying for the NHIAA Division IV (formerly Class S) state tournament 21 times. Thirteen of those 21 tournament appearances resulted in the team reaching the Division IV Final Four. Eight of those 13 Final Four appearances resulted in berths in the state championship game. The Derryfield School won the NHIAA Class S Championship in 1998. Many individuals have earned New Hampshire Basketball Organization (NHBCO) all-state team awards and several players have even attained NHBCO Class S Player-of-the-Year status. Derryfield proudly places players on the NHBCO All-Academic team each year. The team has also been honored by the NHIAA for Sportsmanship in multiple seasons. Derryfield Girls' Varsity Basketball

Thrilling OT Victory
The Cougars overcame a 5 point deficit with 90 seconds to go in the game to force overtime. The cougars went down by two, but a layup in traffic by Emmy Plage tied it up. Then, sophomore Ava Plage had a huge defensive stop to give the Cougars a chance to go ahead. An Emmy Plage layup rimmed out, but Julia Martin grabbed the offensive rebound and scored the putback to put Derryfield up 2 with less than 5 seconds left. The cougars picked up two wins in as many nights, and are now 7-2.Read More -
