The 2026 West Virginia boys high school basketball head-to-head regional records for each team through games of Feb. 24. Capital, a member of Class AAA’s Region 3, finished sixth in regional balloting despite a 17-4 record and victories over 4A foes Cabell Midland (1-0), Huntington (1-0), Hurricane (1-0), Riverside (1-0), and Woodrow Wilson (2-0). Two of Capital’s four losses prior to the ballot deadline came on the road to Class AAAA’s Parkersburg South and George Washington.
If you want to consider the true impact of Capital being No. 6 in the region — the Cougars, who are 10-0 at home this season — will likely need two road wins to reach the state tournament. The only way they host a postseason game is if Nicholas County, the No. 7 seed in the eight-team region,. upsets No. 2 Shady Spring. Capital opens at Fairlea against No. 3 Greenbrier East on Tuesday.
