In other tournament action today, the girls' lacrosse game between 10th-seeded Manchester Essex and No. 2 Ipswich, scheduled for Ipswich, is on but has been moved to Manchester Essex because the school's Hyland Field allows the contest to be played on artificial turf. That game is set for 4 p.m..
The top-seeded Manchester Essex girls tennis team will play Bedford as scheduled today at 3:30 at the Manchester Athletic Club, while the Manchester Essex boys' match at Pentucket Regional has been rescheduled for tomorrow at 3:30.
