Despite the lifting of mask mandates in much of the country, COVID-19 remains a problem, such that the Albany Empire will not be facing Ontario (California) on Saturday. The Ontario franchise has opted out of the 2021 season
Instead, Albany will host the Columbus Lions. Game time remains 7 pm. Tickets start at $15.
However, there are concerns about whether or not the Empire will be able to continue beyond this season. Stay tuned.

Kevin Huerter came off the bench and scored 8 points, while Trae Young, the Atlanta Hawks' new superstar, led all scorers with 32 points, as the Hawks clipped the Knicks, 107-105, on Sunday in the first game of their NBA Eastern Conference playoff series.
Game 2 will be Wednesday night.
=======================================
Those of us who are long time sports fans know that it's never a good idea to take a weaker team lightly.
Troy High's softball team found that out the hard way on Monday, as their three game winning streak came to an end in a 2-0 loss to Burnt Hills-Ballston Lake. Troy (7-4 overall, 6-4 Suburban Council) has to regroup quickly, since they'll play Bethlehem, one of the leaders in the Suburban Council Blue division, on Wednesday. The linescores for both the softball & baseball games were not submitted to the press. We obtained the result from the Spartans' Twitter page.
Burnt Hills also beat Troy in tennis (9-0), keeping the Flying Horses winless on the court, and extended Troy's baseball losing streak to three in a row and four of the last five with a 5-4 win, walking off the visitors in the bottom of the 7th. Troy baseball's record is now 6-4, while the tennis team is at 0-9.
The two schools meet in lacrosse tonight.
