The Providence College Friars welcome the 22nd-ranked West Virginia Mountaineers and former Hendricken star Joe Mazzulla to the Dunkin' Donuts Center tonight. The game starts at 7:30 and can be seen on Cox Sports Television. West Virginia is one of the surprise teams in the Big East; despite losing some of their mainstays from last year to graduation, they have compiled an 8-5 conference record and a mark of 20-6 overall. The Friars come in at 6-6 and 16-9. We'll have a gallery of photos online tomorrow, as well as Kevin McNamara's game story.
On the high school scene, the Barrington Eagles (16-0) put the only undefeated record in girls Division II on the line tonight against Portsmouth (15-1). The game, at Barrington, begins at 7. Check projo.com's High School Game Day page tomorrow for a game story by Robert Lee and a gallery of game photos.
The Boston Bruins, fresh off their fourth win in five games, are right back at it tonight. They'll take on the Maple Leafs in Toronto; the game begins at 7 on NESN. If the Bruins are going to make the playoffs, the Leafs are one of the teams they have to pass in the standings, so this one is pretty big.
And finally, the NBA All-Star break is now over. The Boston Celtics take their 13-38 record and their 1-game winning streak on the road for a brutal Western road trip. It all begins tonight at 10 p.m. against the Sacramento Kings. I'm not staying up myself, but if you want to, you can see the game on Fox Sports New England.
