A few traditional rivalries will be renewed this week on the hardwood, including Saint Mark’s and Salesianum on the boys’ side. For the girls, a full day of hoops at the 76ers Fieldhouse includes two Catholic high schools. And after some dual-meet action early in the week, all four of the Catholic school wrestling teams are headed to tournaments over the weekend.
