Nevada's NIAA boys basketball state championships wrapped up Saturday with four more champions crowned in the Class 1A through 4A ranks.

Two of the games were one-possession games, including the Class 4A title game where the Clark [Las Vegas, NV] Chargers defeated the Bishop Manogue [Reno, NV] Miners, 56-54. The other nail-biter came in the Class 2A championship game where the Battle Mountain [NV] Longhorns defeated the Needles [CA] Mustangs, 70-67.

Needles is actually located in California near the intersection of the state's boundaries with both Arizona and Nevada, but it is one of five California schools that chooses to play in the latter's state association due to its geographic proximity to opponents in southern Nevada.

The other champions from Nevada's prep ranks include The Meadows School [Las Vegas, NV] – a 59-52 winner over the Fernley [NV] Vaqueros for the Class 3A championship – and the Class 1A champion Smith [NV] Valley Bulldogs who beat the Mineral County [Hawthorne, NV] Serpents, 72-59.

Prior to Saturday's busy schedule, the Coronado Cougars defeated the Liberty Patriots, 60-55, for the Class 5A title on Friday evening in a battle between two rivals based in Henderson, Nevada.

The final brackets and results from all of the NIAA's postseason action are included below.
