Per Schedule Galaxy, and barring any further coronavirus-related complications, Section II basketball should start the 2nd week in January. Troy High would open on January 12 vs. Ballston Spa, with the boys at home, and the girls on the road. Stay tuned.

The waiting game for the Tri-City Valleycats continues, per the Albany Times-Union.
GM Matt Callahan had been promised a final decision from Major League Baseball on Thanksgiving, but what is holding up said decision is litigation from teams on both sides of the coast.
The Staten Island Yankees are suing the NY Yankees and Major League Baseball, alleging that the Bronx Bombers had reneged on a deal that had promised SI that they would never be abandoned. The big league franchise have taken over the former Hudson Valley Renegades, previously affiliated with AL champion Tampa Bay, and will play, along with the Brooklyn Cyclones (Mets) in the new Mid-Atlantic League next year. The 'Cats would like to 1) have major league affiliation and 2) play in the MAL, but everything is up in the air at the moment.
The other litigation involves the Fresno Grizzlies, who, like the 'Cats, were aligned with the Houston Astros, but the parent club was switched in 2019 to the Washington Nationals. The Grizzlies are in a similar fix to the 'Cats, but are pursuing litigation, likely for the same reason as the Baby Bombers.
Oh, what a tangled web........!
