It appears all games scheduled for Tuesday night are on after Monday night's inclement weather.

But there aren't many games due to it being midterm week for most schools. Just two games on the SCC interdivision schedule: Cheshire tries to extend its winning streak to eight against Hamden (6:45 start at Cheshire), while Notre Dame-West Haven tries to win its first game of the season at Sheehan.

Top-ranked St. Joseph visits one-loss Danbury in the FCIAC. In Shoeline Conference play, Cromwell tries to rebound from its first loss against Old Saybrook (5 p.m. start) and Valley Regional hosts Hyde. In the NVL, Ansonia tries to snap a six-game losing streak at home against Torrington.

Hillhouse come a thrilling 48-47 win over Career Wednesday night to face Notre Dame-West Haven tis evening. Then the Academics hop on a bus on Saturday to travel to Hartford to face top-ranked New London in the Doc Hurley Classic at Weaver High at 2:45.
Wilbur Cross comes off its win over Hand to play at Cheshire at 6:45 p.m. The Govs, too, play in the Hurley Classic Saturday, facing Bulkeley following the Hillhouse-New London game.
Career tries to bounce back at Lyman Hall this evening. Fairfield Prep is at Foran in other SCC interdivision action. An intriguing non-conference game pits Hyde at Stratford, two of the four 2010-11 state champions. This is the first time the two teams are facing one another. It is the season opener for both teams.

Division play is over in the Southern Connecticut Conference, but there are some interesting interdivision matchups.
Notre Dame plays Career at Wilbur Cross. Notre Dame won the last matchup in overtime at home, but now must try to do so again without power forward Quenten Howard, who is out for the season with a foot injury.
Speaking of Cross, the Govs head up to Middletown to face Xavier. Hamden tries get some revenge on Branford at home after the Hornets beat the Green Dragons the first time around. Also, North Haven plays at Fairfield Prep.

One notable game in the Shoreline Conference has Hyde travelling to Deep River to face Valley Regional, which has won 10 straight games. This is the toughest remaining regular-season test for undefeated Hyde, the No. 4 team in the Register Top 10 poll.
