News & notes

 Siena's men's basketball team was back on national television on Wednesday, this time on FS2 (Spectrum channel 401), and dropped a 75-68 decision to Georgetown, leaving Siena 1-1 vs. the Big East this season. The Hoyas, coached by former star Patrick Ewing, used a 12-0 run in the 2nd half to take control of the game.
===================================
Condolences to the family of local baseball umpire David Simon, 51, who passed away earlier this week. Simon worked a number of local college games, including Siena, and also other college leagues around the country.
===================================
Due to space limitations, Thursday's swimming & diving results didn't appear in the papers this morning. The only result we have is Queensbury beating Johnstown-Fonda-Fultonville, 102-80. Those space limitations,  by the way, were caused by the publication of Wednesday's basketball scores, which should've made the paper in time for Thursday, but, well......!
====================================
Earlier this morning, Troy High issued a notice on Twitter warning users about a fake message from the NYS Public High School Athletic Association in relation to tonight's women's home opener vs. Burnt Hills, warning of a possible malicious link to the game being streamed on Roku. If Troy is using its own YouTube channel tonight, it won't be an issue. I'd imagine Burnt Hills is also issuing the same warning.
