UAlbany Women Picked to Win America East
The UAlbany women's basketball team has been to four consecutive NCAA tournaments, and they are the favorite to win the America East again in 2015-16.
The America East preseason poll came out on Wednesday and the Danes are sitting atop, four points ahead of Maine.
Check out the rest of the poll here:
It should be a great battle in the America East as Maine did defeat the Danes a season ago - and they return all five starters.
The Great Danes return a good cast as well, including Shereesha Richards, who was named to the preseason all-conference team. She is the two-time A-East reigning Player of the Year.
Guard Imani Tate was also named to the preseason all-conference team.
The men's preseason poll comes out today and that figures to be a tight race between UAlbany, Stony Brook, and Vermont. Hartford also has aspirations of ending the Danes three-year run at the top.
