If UAlbany and Rhode Island win two games, Lilly Phillips would play against her twin sister.  Also, former Saratoga point guards, Dolly Cairns and Abby Ray would play against each other.

Well, knowing this has turned that frown on my face whenever I start thinking about UAlbany sports into a just plain old fashion smirk.  Thank you for sharing this.

Ladies found a lid on the basket tonight.  Shot 16 of 69 for 23%, 4 of 23 from three for 17%.  Hahne 1 for 10, Haney 1 for 9, Haegerstrom 3 for 14, Cooper 6 of 20.  Nice season though, certainly night and day compared to MBB.

Besides the same shooting woes as at Vermont, UMass had way too much height all across the front line
