News & notes

The Albany Twilight League is awaiting word on whether they'll be able to take the field for their 90th season. The oldest amateur league in the area has seen other leagues cancel their 2020 seasons due to the coronavirus pandemic, and are torn about whether or not to do the same. The league plays virtually all of its games at ancient Bleecker Stadium in Albany, which might explain why it doesn't get the same kind of coverage it used to. Troy has a team in the league, but you'd think the league would expand its borders, and let some games be played across the river.......
========================================
The Tri-City Valleycats are waiting on a decision from the NY-Penn League, expected June 1, regarding the 2020 season.

Ye scribe's best guess is that they will play, but without fans and possibly without the popular nightly promotions. Stay tuned.
=========================================
Cambridge women's basketball star Lilly Phillips has committed to playing her college ball close to home.

Phillips will stay in the 518, and move on to UAlbany after graduation. I'm willing to guess that sister Sophie will do the same, even though there will be a little break without the sister act playing on the same court. Good luck, Lilly.
