The Darien Blue Wave and New Canaan Rams lead a strong field of eight teams into the FCIAC girls lacrosse tournament, which will get underway with a pair of games on Thursday.
Below are the match-ups for the quarterfinals. New Canaan and Darien have their proms on Friday night, so the games at those two schools were moved up one day to Thursday. The quarterfinal games at Wilton and Greenwich will be played on Friday.

The eight playoff teams are determined using a power point system. Teams are awarded 100 points for each official league victory, and 10 bonus points for every league win that opponent has.
While the power point system was used to determine qualifiers, it was not used to determine final seedings.
