The Capital District High School Hockey League (CDHSHL) playoffs begin with a play-in round one week from today. Both sets of Cadets---LaSalle & Albany Academy---will likely go through the play-in round to reach the final field of 8. And they're trending in opposite directions.
LaSalle dropped its 2nd straight, 4-0, to Bethlehem in their season finale, leaving Tim Flanigan's club at 6-8 in league play (9-10-1 overall). Conversely, Albany Academy dispatched CBA, 5-1, winning their 2nd straight, and will close at home vs. Bethlehem on Wednesday.
Other hockey scores:
CD Jets 10, Mohawks 2.
Guilderville 2, Burnt Hills 1.
==================================================
UAlbany went to overtime in both their men's & women's basketball games vs. Binghamton on Saturday, with predictable results.
The men dropped their 9th straight, 80-66. I'm hearing that there are alumni posting on social media calling for the school to cut not only coach Dwayne Killings, but also athletic director Mark Benson. The shoes, in this writer's opinion, will drop after the America East tournament next month.
Meanwhile, the women downed the Bearcats at Hudson Valley Community College, 63-53. Kayla Cooper led 4 Lady Danes in double figures with 17 points. Grace Heeps, after being shut out in her last game, had 11. Abby Ray played just 3 minutes without scoring.
====================================================
It was a good day for local hockey, too.
RPI had their annual Big Red Freakout at Houston Field House, and notched a 4-2 win over Yale to salvage the weekend. Meanwhile, Union completed a weekend sweep at Messa Rink, defeating Brown, 3-1, in a rare Saturday matinee.
==================================================
Another week, another loss for the Albany Firewolves.
The 'Wolves dropped a 14-12 decision to the NY Riptide Saturday, dropping their record to 2-5 on the season. No one thought the 'Wolves would be this bad, but it is what it is.
Good thing the Empire and arena football are two months away.
