UAlbany snapped a 2 game losing streak Tuesday in besting Army, 62-59, at Cool Insuring Arena. In what was supposed to be a sort of homecoming for Hudson Falls product Jonathan Beagle, the sophomore was held to just 6 points in 32 minutes. Sebastian Thomas led Albany (2-3) with 17 points, while Aaron Reddish & Amare Marshall added 16 each. Marcus Jackson (Albany Academy) had just 5 points.
On the upside, Albany has momentum going into Sunday's game at Siena, which is more than can be said for the struggling Saints.
Siena finished dead last in the Sunshine Slam as the losing streak was extended to four with a 61-59 loss to Milwaukee, on a last second basket. Mason Courtney (Shenendehowa) got his 2nd straight start, and had just 5 points.
Sunday's game has a 5 pm tipoff at MVP Arena.
