News & notes

 Apparently, whomever sends in the box scores for Troy High's home basketball games was among the missing Saturday, as there is no box score for the Flying Horses' 63-33 demolition of Mount Anthony Union. Dereliction of duty much?
=========================================
The Albany FireWolves had a chance to even the score with Rochester on the road Saturday night, but it didn't happen. Joe Resartitis' 4 goals weren't enough, as Albany fell, 15-13. With the game airing locally on WNYA, the real question was whether or not anyone would watch opposite the Olympics and college basketball on other channels.
=========================================
College lacrosse season started Saturday, and for Siena, the results were a mixed bag. 

The women routed New Hampshire, 18-8, while the men fell to Long Island University, 14-7. The women travel to Plattsburgh on Friday.
=========================================
It was a men's & women's separate admission doubleheader at SEFCU Arena on Saturday, as UAlbany hosted Vermont.

The Catamounts have been a nemesis for the Albany men for years, and Saturday was no different, as Vermont downed Albany, 76-63, sending the Great Danes to their 4th loss in their last 5 games. Isaiah Powell (Colonie) had 8 points for the Catamounts.


Earlier in the day, the women defeated Vermont, 54-52, to remain undefeated at home. Grace Heeps (Columbia) contributed 8 points for the Lady Danes (17-7, 10-3 America East).
==========================================
LaSalle hockey coach Tim Flanigan might have to seriously consider declining a play-in game next weekend to spare his Cadets further mental torture.

LaSalle's regular season ended in a 7-1 loss to Bethlehem on Saturday on the road. The Eagles are using their YouTube stream on campus only, as their hockey games are off-site. No box score was supplied to the press. LaSalle is 1-13 in league play, 1-18 overall, and the goal disparity is, well, for a lack of a better term, embarrassing, outscored by 70 goals this season. The play-in games start next Sunday.
===========================================
RPI had its Big Red Freakout on Saturday night, but there wasn't much to cheer for, as Colgate defeated the Engineers, 3-2. There's likely a boycott on a certain brand of toothpaste and mouthwash for the day.

Colgate also defeated RPI in women's play, 3-0.

Meanwhile, Cornell defeated Union, 5-2, after getting upset by RPI on Friday. The Big Red also won the women's game, 5-3.
=============================================
Three weeks ago, Troy High's women's team lost to Kingston for the first time.

On Saturday, Bethlehem, coming off a blowout of Troy on the road, returned home, and drubbed the Lady Tigers, 68-47. Maren Louridas led all scorers with 26 points, while Ellie Cerf added 18, and Kaitlyn Robbins chipped in 8. The Lady Eagles will close with Schalmont (Colonial Council) on Monday.
==============================================
Section2basketball.com was down for most of Saturday, and as of press time, no results had been posted.
==============================================
LaSalle's basketball team, playing its 4th game this week, defeated Catholic Central, 72-67. 8th grader Darien Moore had 35 points to lead all scorers for Catholic Central, but Adam Myers led 3 Cadets in double figures with 26.
