The boys’ basketball Thursday top 10 schedule includes several important conference games spread across almost every classification.
In Class 2A, an important weekend in the Mile High begins with a key game between #8 Denver Christian and Clear Creek.  The Thunder open the night tied with Gilpin County and Highland atop the standings with Clear Creek just one game back.  Tomorrow night, Highland and Heritage Christian also square off.
In Class 3A, #2 Manual and #7 Lutheran scored major wins in the Metro on Tuesday and now the Thunderbolts and Lions look to remain tied in first place with wins tonight.  Kent Denver and Lutheran came up short on Tuesday and need wins this evening to stay within range of the two leaders.
Up in Class 5A, Regis looks for a second straight win over a Top 10 opponent.  The Raiders stunned ThunderRidge on Tuesday and now share the Continental lead with Chaparral and Legend.  Mountain Vista looks to bounce back from their first loss of the season to Chaparral as they host Castle View.  Castle View needs a win to avoid an 0-2 conference start.
