Why this matters

This midweek showdown gives both programs a chance to sharpen their depth and rotations in league play. Rice Memorial arrives looking to build on its season while Essex defends home court at Essex High School. There is no archived meeting listed in the public game data, so this one will help set the tone between these two programs for the stretch run.
