It’s a holiday week, but Strib Varsity still has plenty of high school hockey and basketball games for you to watch. Here’s the scoop on what’s coming up (and you can always find our streaming schedule right here):

Monday at 5:30 p.m., girls basketball: Chaska vs. Delano. The host Tigers jumped into Strib Varsity’s Minnesota Top 25 at No. 21 after going 5-1 in their last six games. Chaska is 2-6 but has kept up with the likes of No. 5 Maple Grove and No. 23 St. Michael-Albertville.

Monday at 7 p.m., girls hockey: Maple Grove vs. Westonka/Southwest Christian. The Crimson, ranked No. 9 in Strib Varsity’s Minnesota Top 25, visit the No. 21 White Hawks.

Monday at 7:30 p.m., boys basketball: Mankato East vs. Rochester Mayo. The Spartans, ranked No. 14 in Strib Varsity’s Minnesota Top 25, host the No. 20 Cougars.

Tuesday at 7 p.m., girls basketball: Caledonia vs. Minnehaha Academy. The Redhawks are looking to stay above .500 and climb back into the rankings, but they face a test in the visiting Warriors, who have not lost since their season opener at Rochester Lourdes.

Tuesday at 7 p.m., boys basketball: East Ridge vs. Osseo. The No. 7 Raptors, coming off their first loss of the season against Maple Grove, pay a visit to an Osseo team that has won its last five games and has yet to lose at home this season.

Tuesday at 7 p.m., boys hockey: Hermantown vs. Cloquet/Esko/Carlton. The Lumberjacks, after ending a two-game skid with a win over Mahtomedi, host section rival Hermantown, No. 9 in Strib Varsity’s Minnesota Top 25.

Friday at 3 p.m., boys hockey: Delano vs. Hermantown. The No. 9 Hawks host the No. 24 Tigers, who entered the week riding a three-game winning streak.

Saturday at 7 p.m., boys hockey: White Bear Lake vs. Hermantown. We’re back in Hermantown as the Hawks host a White Bear Lake team that opened the season with a tie against No. 2 Minnetonka and a win over No. 14 Rogers but has lost three in a row.
