But the pause didn't seem to hinder the Flying Horses one bit. In fact, it actually aided them. "The snow delays actually kind […] | | | | | TROY, N.Y. — At some point in the fourth quarter of the Section 2 Class D championship game Saturday night at Hudson Valley Community College, Saratoga Catholic Central girls' varsity basketball head coach Athena DiLorenzo-Ryan took her dark purple sweatshirt off.

Game 1: Union 14, […] | | | | | I woke up as if by premonition. Four A.M. The room was dark and soundless except for the steady blinking clockface of an unset video player and the buzz-saw of my husband's snoring. Because I was awake, I checked my phone for changes since the last time I let myself distractedly doom scroll … sometime before turning in for the night and actually falling asleep. Of course, there was news and emails I could ignore, but there was also a text message from my daughter who was traveling for spring break. At first, I was a little nervous.
