News & notes

UAlbany got some good football news as the Colonial Athletic Alliance (CAA) announced its schedule for the spring 2021 season, to start in March. The Great Danes will have a 6 game league schedule, while the league itself will be split into two divisions. Traditional winter football weather might still be in effect when the season starts, as winter segues into spring, and temperatures would be anywhere between 25 & 40 degrees on a given day. Old school traditionalists are going to love it.
=================================
A correction on Troy High's soccer schedule. The women's home opener on Saturday vs. Niskayuna, per the THS website, is set for 2 pm. After that, the Lady Horses will embark on a three game road trip, starting Tuesday night, at Burnt Hills-Ballston Lake. The women will only have five home games this season, due to Ballston Spa & Bethlehem opting out.
=================================
Shenendehowa grad Ian Anderson will take the mound today for Atlanta as they'll try to close out a best-of-3 1st round series vs. Cincinnati. First pitch is set for 12:08 pm at Truist Park, with the game airing on ESPN.

Just out of curiosity, I wonder if they'll have television monitors tuned to the game at Shen......! If Atlanta wins, they'll get the winner of the Miami-Chicago Cubs series, and Miami has already shown they have Anderson's number. Stay tuned.
