News & notes

 All along, I'd been under the impression that Watervliet and Troy had never played each other.

A quick Google search on New Year's Eve proved me wrong.

Turns out the two teams met in November 2019 in what was really a pre-season scrimmage. Tomorrow night, it's for reals, as the kids say today. The Cannoneers make their first regular season visit to Zotto Gym, now united with Heatly. Back in 2019, 'Vliet was in the Colonial Council, where Troy is now, while the Flying Horses were in the Suburban Council. Today, Watervliet-Heatly plays in the Patroon Conference, which absorbed the Central Hudson Valley League a few years back to welcome Heatly, Germantown, Cairo-Durham, et al.

Tip time is approximately 6:30 pm. Dress warm.


Now, let's take a look at Wednesday's scoreboard:

Women's basketball:

Hartford 76, Berlin-New Lebanon 31.

Fort Plain-Canajoharie 55, Brookfield 52.

Warrensburg 52, Cambridge 29.

Men's basketball:

Edmeston 56, Fort Plain 48.
