Any meeting between Norwich Free Academy and New London is always much anticipated and tonight will be no exception.
The Wildcats may be the ones who head into the final regular season game for both undefeated but the Whalers are more than capable of stopping that streak.
New London is back to full strength now that Allan Chaney is back with the team and DeJohn Joseph-Exum continues to pick up his game. The Wildcats, though, are looking pretty formidable especially in their past several games.
There is something on the line tonight as a New London win and a Windham victory over Fitch would knock the Wildcats from the top spot in the ECC tournament which begins Thursday. NFA may have beaten Windham this season but it was in a non-league scheduled game and, thus, does not count towards tournament records.
There will be other games tonight that will have plenty to say about the ECC tournament. Woodstock takes on St. Bernard with the Saints having a precarious hold on the fourth spot right now. Waterford, which plays Griswold, and Stonington, which hosts Lyman, could win and move up.

NFA 20-0...despite the lack of support/respect of the hometown newspaper the Bulletin. The Bulletin has covered Griswold more than NFA this year!!!Why? oh I forgot Gary Kinel has been coaching for 300 years and finally got his whatever number win. But what I do know is the Cats are 20-0 and a real special bunch of young men who have really shined this year despite the lack of coverage.The coaching staff and team all deserve KUDOS no matter what the rest of the season brings. Sorry they let you down bulletin sports writers who were yearning for a loss. In least the team knows who's in their corner. It would be nice to see an article on this fantastic team and what make them tick. But as the season draws closer to the end we the fans/parents know the ups and downs our boys went through and that is what really counts
