As the state regionals head into championship weekend this weekend, the Perfect Game Collegiate League quietly began its 2022 campaign a week or two ago. Unfortunately, due to space considerations, the local papers can't publish the league standings at the present time.
On Monday, the Albany Dutchmen continued their hot start, defeating Saugerties, 7-6, in 10 innings Troy High grad Danny Rogers, now at Rutgers, won it for the Dutchmen with a walk-off 2 run homer in the bottom of the 10th.
The Dutchmen (4-0), who play their home games in Guilderland at Keenholts Park, return on Wednesday to host Oneonta.
=======================================
After a 19-14 loss to Trois-Rivieres on Sunday, the Tri-City Valleycats return to Washington, Pennsylvania for a rematch with the Wild Things tonight. Washington won 2 of 3 in the last series between the two clubs, so Tri-City is looking for revenge.
On Monday, the 'Cats traded reserve infielder Dennicher Carrasco to Lancaster of the Atlantic League, likely for cash.
========================================
Albany Academy's golfing wunderkind, Kennedy Swedick, captured the state title in women's golf on Monday at McGregor Links in Wilton. Swedick finished at even par for the 72 holes. Academy finished 2nd in the team competition, behind the Ursuline School.
========================================
We would be remiss if we didn't get this next item in.
Troy High senior lefty Mike Kennedy was named Gatorade's NY Player of the Year last week. Kennedy is committed to LSU for next season, but that could all change, as he's gotten the attention of pro scouts ahead of next month's MLB Entry Draft. The only other Section II player on the watch list is Ballston Spa grad Luke Gold, currently at Boston College. Luke's sister, Ana, has been tearing it up for Duke in ACC softball. I can only imagine what would happen if the two schools met for a baseball-softball doubleheader.
