Troy High sports review, through 9/21

 Yep, this is a regular feature for the season.

Volleyball:

Current record, not including tournaments, 2-4 (2-2 Colonial Council). Troy picked up its first wins of the season, defeating Ravena & LaSalle, then defeated Canajoharie-Fort Plain in the Averill Park tournament before falling to Columbia.

This week: Talia Valenti's squad hosts Cohoes on Tuesday, and visits Lansingburgh on Thursday.

Women's swimming & diving:

Current record: 1-1. Troy/Averill Park/Tamarac fell to Saratoga, and will take on Bethlehem this Wednesday, then travel to Niskayuna on Friday.

Women's soccer:

Current record: 4-2-1 overall (2-2-1 Colonial Council). Troy fell to Ravena on Tuesday, but came back to tie LaSalle, then take down Schenectady in a non-league clash on Saturday.

This week: Jarret Farrell's club hosts Cohoes on Tuesday night, then visits Lansingburgh Thursday afternoon.

Men's soccer:

Current record: 1-3-2 overall (0-2-1 Colonial Council). Russ Hines' crew is having the same problems as last year, specifically scoring goals. All three losses (Amsterdam, Schalmont, Averill Park) were via shutout, and the Horses have only tallied 3 goals this season.

This week: Troy is at Coboes on Tuesday night, then hosts Lansingburgh under the lights on Thursday, and a non-league game vs. Ballston Spa on Saturday afternoon.

Golf:

Current record: 4-4. Jack O'Keefe's team saw their 4 match win streak disappear in a loss to LaSalle one week ago, then dropped a match to Ichabod Crane.

This week: Troy visits Sycamore Country Club today for a match vs. Ravena. Even though there are still some league matches remaining, the Colonial Council championships take place Friday at Eagle Creek Country Club.

Football:

Current record: 2-1 after losing to Bethlehem on Friday. Undefeated Columbia will look to spoil Homecoming on Friday night. If everything breaks in Troy's favor, however, they could make the playoffs, as their last road game will be for the Collar City Cup against a suddenly struggling LaSalle (1-2).

Tennis: Devin Robinson's group still is searching for their first win of the season.

This week: The ladies are at Schalmont on Tuesday for their lone match of the week.
