News & notes

After spending the summer with the Brockton Rox of the Frontier League, Derek Bender (Albany Academy/Coastal Carolina) is now free to sign with a major league team.

Bender, a catcher, was banished by MLB while in the Minnesota chain for blatantly tipping pitches. What are the chances he catches on (pun intended) with the Yankees, Boston, Toronto, or the Mets?

Stay tuned.
=====================================================
WNYA has confirmed that their high school basketball game of the week returns on December 12. Shaker & Shenendehowa will meet in the season opener, with a tip-off just after 7 pm. Rodger Wyland will be at the mic to call the game.
