GAMES TO WATCH

-

NCCC final, Granby vs. Somers (at Suffield), Wednesday, 7 p.m.: Somers and Granby have had some good tilts in recent years, most recently Granby's 16-15 overtime win April 30, Somers' only blemish this season.

WCLC final, Thursday at St. Paul, 6:30 p.m.:

St. Paul has swept through the league the past couple of years, though Lewis Mills at least put up some goals against the Falcons in the regular season (not enough, but still). Lewis Mills and Watertown were in the other semifinal from St. Paul, set to meet Wolcott on Wednesday.

FCIAC final, Thursday at McMahon, 7 p.m.:

If No. 1 Darien gets past Wilton on Tuesday, it'll bid for an unpreceden­ted sixth consecutiv­e FCIAC title against either rival New Canaan or 2018 state-final nemesis Ridgefield.

SCC final, Thursday at West Haven, 7:30 p.m.: This hasn't quite been the Fairfield Prep Invitation­al, but the Jesuits have won three titles in a row and 10 out of 12, and they were favored again going into Tuesday's semifinal against Hand.

SWC final, Thursday, site TBA, 7 p.m.: There was no sign during the regular season that anyone was going to head off New Fairfield, which outscored SWC opponents 198-26 in 10 games, including 34-9 against Newtown and Weston, who met in the other semifinal.

CCC Central final, Simsbury at Glastonbur­y, Thursday: As has often been the case, they meet again right after seeing each other in the regular season: Glastonbur­y won 8-4 a week ago.

CCC North final, TBA... Maybe?: Farmington is in if they play one, but with Wednesday's East Catholic-RHAM game (the last regularsea­son game in the state) determinin­g the other competitor, and with East Catholic needing to play Saturday in the Class S tournament, whether they'd play a championsh­ip game was to be determined at last report.

CCC South final, Tolland at Berlin (Sage Park), Wednesday, 4 p.m.: Both teams are 12-4. Berlin won 12-3 at Tolland in the regular season.

Shoreline final, Thursday at Indian River Complex, Clinton, 7 p.m.: Defending champion Old Lyme was set to go on the road in Tuesday's semifinals to visit North Branford. Morgan and Haddam-Killingwor­th were to meet in the other semifinal.

ECC final, Thursday at East Lyme, 7:30 p.m.: East Lyme has won it eight years in a row, but Waterford (with which it split in the regular season) and Bacon Academy (its semifinal opponent Tuesday night) have been very competitiv­e.

CIAC qualifying round games, Saturday: Looks like there will be at least 15 of them spread across the three classes; each bracket had at least 19 teams qualify, and any above 16 force qualifying-round games. The "first" round, then, is next Wednesday, May 29.
