Our weekly recap is back after a month off. It'll be here every Sunday until the season ends.
Men's swimming & diving (united with CBA & Columbia):
Current record: 1-0.
The Flying Devil Brothers defeated Albany to open the season, and will host Bethlehem on Tuesday.
Bowling:
Current record: 2-1.
Don Poutre's club started off fast, blowing out LaSalle right before Thanksgiving, then destroying Schalmont before reality set in with a loss to Lansingburgh on Thursday. The Knights & Flying Horses meet again, with 'Burgh as the home team, on January 9.
Next: The homestand ends with a match vs. Mohonasen on Tuesday. After that, it's off to Cohoes Bowling Arena, a sister house to Uncle Sam Lanes, for a 1st ever match vs. the Tigers. We should note that the match vs. Mohonasen is the first since 2017-18, when Mohon & Troy were both in the Suburban Council.
Men's basketball:
Current record: 1-1.
One of the first things Jamil Hood did upon signing on as coach was bringing back leading scorer Stetson Merritt, who quit right before sectionals last season after a falling out with Josh Pelletier, Hood's predecessor. The move has paid off. Merritt had a game high 35 points Saturday, as Troy dispatched Curt Sankey & Columbia, 69-65.
Next: The Horses are idle until Thursday, when they open Colonial Council play against Schalmont.
Women's basketball:
Current record: 2-1.
Broadalbin-Perth shut down leading scorer Amaya Harris on Friday, but against a weaker Scotia club, Harris exploded for 20 points, as Troy dispatched the Tartans, 61-49, to take 3rd place in the Burnt Hills tournament.
Next: League play starts Tuesday at the Academy of Holy Names, and the home opener is Thursday vs. Schalmont. They're not playing on Friday the 13th for some reason, and I don't think it has to do with superstitions. Hanukkah, maybe?
