Former Shenendehowa star Kevin Huerter was named to the NBA's All-Rookie Second Team. Well, while he was meriting headlines on the late news here, he wasn't as big a fish nationally, especially since Atlanta ended up a lottery team. Congratulations, just the same.
==========================================
Troy High's softball team will find out who they'll play in the sectionals later today, but Sean Geisel's club has some momentum heading into the tournament.
On Monday, Troy clobbered Schenectady, 17-1, with Olivia DeCitise picking up the win in the circle. Yesterday, they finally finished the regular season at Guilderland, and Troy knocked off the Lady Dutch, 3-2.
Funny thing. Last week, the Albany Times-Union's weekly softball rankings, which has Troy as a team to watch in Class A, had the Flying Horses at 7-8, heading into the final six games of the season. Seems to me there were some issues with the math, because in yesterday's editions, counting Monday's win, the girls were at 8-10, meaning they would be 9-10 after beating Guilderland. To recap the final week:
May 15: Beat Ballston Spa.
May 16: Lost to Columbia.
May 17: Lost to Shaker.
May 18: Lost to Averill Park.
May 20: Beat Schenectady.
May 21: Beat Guilderland.
If Troy really did play 21 regular season games (which I think is over the limit?), their record would be 10-11, wouldn't it? We'll know for sure after the final pairings are announced later today. It isn't helping that the T-U isn't posting standings for softball or baseball for the 2nd straight season.
=====================================
As of now, Troy baseball's senior day game vs. Schenectady was never reported. As bad as the Patriots have been, we will wait for the sectional pairings to come out. If Troy beat Schenectady, they will have qualified.
======================================
LaSalle has advanced to the finals of the Class C lacrosse tournament after beating Scotia-Glenville, 16-8, last night at Sutton Field. The Cadets will travel to Glens Falls for the title game on Friday.
