The UAlbany and Siena men's basketball coaches, Dwayne Killings and Carm Maciariello, may not face each other on the court this year but they are continuing the tradition to team up for the 16th annual Coaches vs. Cancer Basket "Ball", Monday, October 4th at the Albany Capital Center. This is a tremendous evening of true community camaraderie centered around our two Division I college basketball programs. It is definitely one of the best events of its kind.

It's not too late to donate to a great cause

If you or someone you know has had any dealings with cancer in any way, you owe it to yourself to give this a listen.  This was an interview with Julie Hart, the NYS Government Relations Director For the  ACS CAN Network.  All of the audio can be found below

Cancer strikes thousands of lives across the country each year.  In many cases, it can affect us personally.

As someone who has witnessed first-hand the dreaded ills of cancer and what it can do to loved ones, I have always held the American Cancer Society as a charity near and dear to my heart. So anytime the local sporting community bans together and helps raise money for this very worthwhile cause, I am all for it and love to help spreading the word.

The Albany Devils, SEFCU and the American Cancer Society have joined forces for the on-going battle against cancer. The Devils will host “American Cancer Society Night presented by SEFCU” Saturday, March 3. The game features the Devils and Time Warner Cable Cup rival, the Adirondack Phantoms, at 5 p.m.
