Peter Hooley

If it ain't broke, don't fix it. That could be a mantra for the University at Albany men's basketball team when it comes to bringing kids from Australia to Albany, N.Y. to play for head coach Will Brown and the Great Danes. Not only has the Danes' coaching staff been able to secure commitments from players from Down Under, but nearly every Aussie that has made the 10,000 mile trip over the years h

UAlbany senior guard Peter Hooley may have had one of the most storied college careers. Starting as a string bean freshman from Australia five years ago, to becoming a hero hitting a buzzer beater shot to win the America East Tournament only days after losing his mother from cancer...

Peter Hooley has been to three NCAA tournaments in the three years he's been a member of the UAlbany men's basketball team. He'll look to make it 4-4 as the Danes are about to head down the path of trying to win the America East tournament yet again...

A "Standing O" for @UAlbany_MBB on SportsCenter today! #AEHoops https://t.co/XmP5imtH1x — America East (@AmericaEast) February 18, 2016 Last night the U Albany Great Danes took on the conference leading Stony Brook Sea Wolves. The SEFCU Aren...

Here at 104.5 The Team, we are looking through the archives to find our top stories and top YouTube videos of the year. While it was only fifth on our most viewed YouTube video list, perhaps no video had no more meaning than this one. Peter Hooley of UAlbany had a trying first half of 2015, having lost his mother and leaving the Danes program for a month during the whole thing...

The Michigan State vs. Michigan ending on Saturday was among the most crazy endings that I've ever seen in sports. Leading 23-21 with 10 seconds to play, Michigan was punting to the Spartans on fourth down. All Michigan needed to was get the punt off, tackle the return man as time expired -- or defend one Hail Mary with hardly any time left...

Last night, the UAlbany basketball standout Peter Hooley accepted the Inspiration Award at the Coaches vs. Cancer Basket Ball in Troy. Hooley was accepting the award of behalf of his mother Sue, who passed away in January after a battle with colon cancer...

UAlbany Head Coach Will Brown joined Armen and Levack in-studio on Friday afternoon for an hour.

It's "Throwback Thursday." So, why not take an opportunity to post a memory from exactly two months ago today? (H/T to UAlbany men's basketball assistant coach Josh Pelletier for the reminder!) On March 14, UAlbany punched its ticket to its third straight NCAA tournament by defeating Stony Brook in the America East championship...

After a year that saw UAlbany win its third consecutive America East title and hang tough with Oklahoma in the NCAA tournament, the Great Danes continue to get exposure on the national stage.

The 2014-15 UAlbany men's basketball season may have ended on Friday night in Columbus, Ohio with the Danes 69-60 loss to No. 3 Oklahoma in the NCAA tournament, but there is no reason to doubt that the '15-'16 Danes can't earn a fourth straight trip to the "Big Dance" for UA...

No. 14 UAlbany gave it their all on Friday night but in the end, No. 3 Oklahoma was too much for the 2015 America East Champions as Will Brown's group lost 69-60 in the first round of the NCAA Tournament.
