Beals Island Boys Made Basketball History
Beals Island high school on a tiny coastal lot carved out a legendary small school dynasty from 1950s to early 1960s, winning four state crowns and nearly capturing a New England title. Limited enrollment, tight gym, and ferry trips shaped a fast breaking, high scoring style. Coach Guy Carver recalls their shooting prowess and fanatical devotion before the program ended as enrollment dropped and the school closed.
