Boys' Volleyball: Top Games for Mon 5/16 and Tues 5/17

Monday 5/16

Xaveir @ Amity @ 530pm
-I feature this match between a 7-6 and an 8-6 team respectively because of its implications on the SCC tournament next week.  If Xaveir wins, they virtually lock up the 2 seed.  If Amity wins, because of their loss to Hand last week, they would force a three-way that really only Xavier can break if they beat Cheshire on Wednesday or Shelton can break by upsetting Amity, Hand or Xavier (but they are winless in conference and -12 overall so that is unlikely)!

Greenwich @ Ridgefield @ 530
-A big FCIAC showdown, much like the SCC one above it, pits two good teams in the state battling it out for conference tournament seeding.  The difference here is that Greenwich has the four seed and does not play enough conference games to move up whereas Ridgefield is the two seed and has too many losses to move up this late in the season, unless Staples or Darien lose the rest of their games, but that is highly unlikely!

Newington @ Southington @ 630
-Newington did take this match-up 3-1 last time but Southington is the only team besides Cheshire, who beat Newington 3-2, Bulkely and Lewis Mills to win a set against the Indians so this should pan out to be an extremely good match!

Farmington @ Wethersfield @ 630
-Two top teams in Class M clash as the Wethersfield Eagles are trying to rebound from their loss to Bloomfield last week and Farmington is coming off a 3-2 win over Wolcott Tech!

Tuesday 5/17

Glastonbury @ Enfield @ 5pm
-The Tomahakws are 7-4 so a win at Enfield would earn them a spot in the Class L state tournament and a quality win whereas Enfield has already made the Class M state tournament at 8-5 but is looking to rebound from a rough 1-3 loss to Norwich Free Academy.  This should be a pretty good match that could go either way.
