===========================
The Independent Collegiate Baseball League ends its season tonight, as the league champion Albany Athletics will take on Amsterdam at Shuttleworth Park. The Athletics were to play Glens Falls in the Independents' home finale on Monday, but they were rained out, and then cancelled last night due to another storm headed into the 518. Glens Falls finishes at 2-21 for the season.

Instead of two 7 inning games as originally planned, the Mohawks & Athletics will close the season with a 9 inning game beginning at 6:30 pm. Amsterdam has yet to beat the Athletics this season, so they do have something to play for in the finale.
