ONE BIG DAY

In the basketball-crazed state of Connecticut, hopefully fans will take note of some of the other great action taking place tomorrow aside from UConn hosting Providence.
The Huskies kick things off with a virtual must-win to keep NCAA tournament hopes alive. But that’s not the only game with March implications.
First place in the NEC is one the line when Sacred Heart visits Central Connecticut. The conference also celebrates a big moment when Quinnipiac opens its new TD Banknorth Sports Center with a visit from LIU.
Hartford plays in the nightcap, trying to snap a four-game losing streak against Maine in a TV game on NESN. Yale, which improved to 2-1 in the Ivy with a win tonight at Harvard, is the only state team on the road today against Dartmouth before a key homestand next weekend against Princeton and Penn.
Fairfield, suddenly winners of four straight, is off until Sunday when it hosts Niagara.
If you like hoops, the Nutmeg State is as good as any tomorrow.
