A lone boys basketball game on Monday evening leads into a full Tuesday on the hardwood for both boys and girls. Meanwhile, the wrestling and swmiing action is spread all week.
With January coming to a close, these teams are beginning to look at point indices and seedings as the postseason is creeping ever closer.

Salesianum (3-6) at Middletown (7-4), 6:30 p.m. Middletown brings one of the taller lineups in Delaware, but the Sals are no stranger to bigs, having played a number of out-of-state powers in the early season.

Wednesday
Saint Mark’s at Delmarva Christian (7-2), 6 p.m. The Spartans and Royals are no strangers to each other, having split two games last season.
