News & notes

 Today's rains have forced the postponement of two events scheduled for this afternoon.

In the Colonial Council, a golf match between LaSalle & Mohonasen was rained out, and has been rescheduled for October 3.

In the Suburban Council, a tennis meet between Troy & Columbia likewise was rained out. No make-up date has been set.

A non-league swimming & diving meet between Ravena (Colonial Council) & Albany (Suburban Council) was postponed for different, unannounced reasons. No make-up date has been set.


Come next fall, the Foothills & Colonial Councils will be saying good-bye to member schools who are jumping to the Western Athletic Conference.

Johnstown (Foothills) and Cobleskill-Richmondville (Colonial) are making the jump, although in the case of Cobleskill, it's at a risk, since the WAC does not offer lacrosse and field hockey. The school is looking to move to independent status in those sports.
==============================================
Hudson Valley Community College couldn't be bothered with a head count at Saturday's football home opener vs. Nassau. Checking the box score the next day, they claimed the attendance was at zero.

Nassau defeated HVCC, 13-6, to pick up its 1st win of the season.
==============================================
It's taken four days, but now we know Troy's men's soccer team, like the women, picked up their first win Thursday, beating Schenectady, 2-1. They'll be back under the lights at Picken Field tomorrow vs. Columbia, with a 7 pm start.
