News & notes

 After losing to previously winless Hartford on Monday, snapping a 7 game winning streak, UAlbany's women's team started what they hope is a new streak Wednesday, routing University of Maryland-Baltimore County, 69-40, in a businessman's lunch special at SEFCU Arena. The Lady Danes (4-1 America East, 12-5 overall) were without freshman Lilly Phillips (Cambridge), who sat out with an ankle injury. Kayla Cooper & Helene Haegerstrand led Albany with 14 points apiece. The game was also a homecoming for UMBC freshman Antonia May (Amsterdam), who didn't score during the game.

Grace Heeps (Columbia) had 3 points for the Lady Danes.


Later in the day, the men completed the sweep, dispatching the Retrievers, 66-54. Matt Cerutti led Albany with 20 points.
========================================
Olivia DeCitise made history a couple of years ago at Troy High as the first female player on the school's bowling team. The Flying Horses are hoping she isn't the last.

DeCitise led all scorers with a 715 triple as Troy ran their winning streak to 5 in a row, beating Shenendehowa, 22 1/2-9 1/2, at Uncle Sam Lanes on Wednesday afternoon. Troy hosts CBA this afternoon on Senior Day, as they'll close the regular season with a 2 match road trip to Bethlehem & Columbia next week.
==========================================
Siena College will have one less opponent---maybe---come next season.

Monmouth, out of New Jersey, is leaving the MAAC after this season, and will move to the Colonial Athletic Association, where UAlbany is a football-only member. Must be about the money. MAAC Commissioner Rich Ensor is hoping to lure in 2 teams to fill the void and expand the league to 12 teams for 2022-3.
===========================================
The rest of Wednesday's high school scoreboard:
