Without much fanfare, the Freihofer's Run For Women marked 40 years on Saturday with the 41st annual edition. It's just too bad none of the local television stations can be bothered to carry the race live.
Elaina Robb of Watertown, Massachusetts won the main race. Section II had a healthy presence, and the highest finisher was Kelsey Chmiel of Saratoga, who finished fifth behind Robb. Chmiel is heading for North Carolina State in the fall after she graduates later this month.
=========================================
To borrow from "The Blues Brothers", the Albany Empire are on a mission from God.
The Empire are 6-0 after beating Washington, 58-48, on Saturday afternoon at the Times-Union Center. That the games are also on local television isn't hurting attendance at all. The Empire also have a radio deal, so the team is retaining a tradition that dates back to the Firebirds nearly 30 years ago.
=========================================
Hard to believe, but there is still one women's lacrosse team from Section II still playing.
Bethlehem reached the state semi-finals on Wednesday, but as of press time, the result of any semi-final game has not yet been reported. We should have an update before the end of the day.
