All rankings reflect The Waterbury Times Power Rankings.
GNIBC: (5) Torrington at (6) Crosby
Tip-off: 7 p.m.
A classic NVL clash takes center stage as Torrington travels to face Crosby in a tight 5 vs. 6 matchup that could reshape the middle of the rankings and The Waterbury Times will be in the building delivering our Player of the Game Ball sponsored by Stallworth Counseling.
Torrington enters the night battle-tested, relying on physical defense and disciplined half-court execution. Crosby, meanwhile, looks to protect home court with tempo and speed.
This is a statement game for both programs—one trying to climb, the other trying to prove it belongs higher.
