They don’t get any busier locally than Tuesday night when just about every local high school basketball team was in action.

The Nashua South Panther boys are glad they made the trip for a late start at Londonderry; the Souhegan-Milford rivalry was renewed and keep an eye on the Hollis Brookline boys, who won their fourth straight.

Also, the area’s only two girls hockey teams met at Skate 3. Here’s the rundown:
