Ocean City High School's Playoff Basketball Games Postponed to Tuesday

Ocean City girls will host Westampton Tech on Tuesday, while the boys visit Toms River South. Both games were originally scheduled for Monday.

The winter storm that forced Ocean City schools and municipal offices to close on Monday also delayed the beginning of the high school basketball playoffs by one day, nj.com reports.

All first round games that were scheduled for Monday will now take place on Tuesday, including games involving the Ocean City boys and girls basketball teams.

The girls team, seeded No. 6 in NJSIAA South Jersey Group 3, will host No. 11 Westampton Tech Tuesday night at 6 p.m., according to the report.
