Last year, an editing error on the Albany Times-Union website led folks to think Lansingburgh had won a game over Colonial Council newcomer Mohonasen, a Class A school, but the result was posted backward. Mohon won that game, and 'Burgh ended the season 0-8.
Not this time.
Lansingburgh ended the season on a winning note Friday, blowing out another Colonial Council foe, Ichabod Crane, 48-6, to go 1-7 on the season. Maybe there is hope on the north side still.
===================================
Following are the updated Class AA standings after play last night:
Conference: Class AA
Conference | Overall | ||||||||
Team | W | L | T | PCT | W | L | T | PCT | |
Shaker | 7 | 0 | 0 | 1.000 | 8 | 0 | 0 | 1.000 | |
Shenendehowa | 6 | 1 | 0 | 0.857 | 7 | 1 | 0 | 0.875 | |
Guilderland | 5 | 3 | 0 | 0.625 | 5 | 3 | 0 | 0.625 | |
Bethlehem | 4 | 3 | 0 | 0.571 | 5 | 3 | 0 | 0.625 | |
CBA | 4 | 3 | 0 | 0.571 | 5 | 3 | 0 | 0.625 | |
Schenectady | 4 | 3 | 0 | 0.571 | 5 | 3 | 0 | 0.625 | |
Colonie | 1 | 6 | 0 | 0.143 | 1 | 7 | 0 | 0.125 | |
Saratoga Springs | 1 | 6 | 0 | 0.143 | 1 | 7 | 0 | 0.125 | |
Niskayuna | 0 | 7 | 0 | 0.000 | 0 | 7 | 0 | 0.000 |
Niskayuna closes their season today at Albany, so one of those teams will salvage their season.
The story, though, is the knot among Guilderland, Bethlehem, CBA, & Schenectady. All four teams have the same identical overall records. The difference that enables Guilderland to claim the #3 seed and a rematch with Shenendehowa is that they, unlike their brethren in the conference, didn't play a non-league game. As it is, they own the tie-breaker over Bethlehem. Likewise, Bethlehem gets the nod over CBA, and will get a rematch with Shaker next Friday.
This four way knot for 3rd overall results from Guilderland losing their finale to CBA, and Schenectady beating Bethlehem, 36-29.
Figuring who goes to the Class AA Super Bowl in 2 weeks isn't that hard. Everyone assumes Shaker & Shen, who met earlier this season, will have their rematch, and if the rumors are true, it'll be on a field where neither has had any success lately, that being Picken Field at Troy High.
=======================================
Speaking of Troy, former stars Dev Holmes & Joe Casale were in the house for Troy's 48-13 pasting of Scotia last night. UAlbany has the week off, but no one is sure of what Holmes' next move is after leaving the Great Danes earlier this season.
