News & notes

 The Atlanta Hawks moved on to the NBA's Eastern Conference Semi-finals with a 103-89 win over the Knicks Wednesday night. Kevin Huerter (Shenendehowa) contributed 8 points off the bench 

Huerter, in all, scored 47 points, or, 9.4 points per game in the five game series. While he was promoted as the top star at Shen, Huerter's actually been part of an ensemble right along, just as his father, Tom, Sr., was at Siena back in the day.

The Hawks will play Philadelphia, the East's top seed, next.
==========================================
Troy High's men's tennis team closed its season on a winning note on Wednesday.


Troy defeated CBA, 6-3, to avoid a winless season, finishing 1-12. Surprisingly, CBA is in the basement of the Suburban Council's Blue division at 0-12, as they'll have one more meet on the calendar.

The two schools will try again to play baseball this afternoon. The tennis meet was given a half hour headstart, and it turned out to be a wise decision, as rain forced postponement of the baseball game. Ignore what it says in the Albany Times-Union. Troy will play CBA today, weather permitting, and then close the season at Saratoga tomorrow night. The softball team is at Averill Park, attempting for the 3rd time to play the Lady Warriors. The T-U has the game listed as being played at Troy, but that is also incorrect. Troy's non-league games vs. Cohoes have been postponed until 2022 at the earliest.

Update, 2:00 pm: The Troy-CBA baseball game has been postponed again due to wet grounds. No makeup date has been announced, and the only date available is Saturday.

Troy's winless lacrosse team (0-11) is at Saratoga tonight, then closes at Shen on Friday.
===================================
The Perfect Game Collegiate Baseball League is scheduled to begin the 2021 season tonight, weather permitting, of course. The Albany Dutchmen are scheduled to open the season at Glens Falls before christening their new home in Guilderland this weekend.
