FCIAC tournament quarterfinals, Tuesday, at site of higher seed: Is this a wide open FCIAC Tournament? Indeed it is. Top seed Greenwich has had a great season, its lone loss to St. Joseph. The Cardinals are looking for their first league championship since 2012 (shared title with St. Joseph). New Canaan is the defending champion and is the No. 2 seed here with a potential semifinal-round matchup with St. Joseph.

SWC tournament quarterfinals, Tuesday, at site of higher seed: Notre Dame Prep is the top seed and Brookfield, the defending champion, could get the Lancers in the semifinals, but would have to win at Masuk in the opener. Newtown and Pomperaug are on the other side of the bracket and would meet in the semis at Newtown if seeding holds to form. 

SCC tournament quarterfinals, Thursday, at site of higher seed: Mercy has won the last two titles. Can Amity, last year’s other finalist, dethrone the Tigers? The Spartans snapped Mercy’s 51-game regular season unbeaten streak earlier this month.

CCC tournament quarterfinals, Thursday, at site of higher seed: Farmington is the defending champion, but Simsbury (the 2023 winner), Lewis Mills and East Catholic are all contenders.
