Lady Cougars: Heading to BSAL Playoffs

On Tuesday October 24, 2006, the host Albany Cougars played a crucial league match versus the St. Patrick-St. Vincent Bruins. With pre-game tensions running high after the Bruins won the previous match (3-1), the Cougars were looking for revenge, and with first place on the line, they sure got it.

As many of the Cougar faithful expected, this game was one for the ages, and junior Cougar supporter Robb Silverstein exclaimed, “I wanted to win the game for some revenge for our earlier loss to them and for first place in the standings. I was hyped and ready to go”.

Tensions were running high on the court as well. Junior outside hitter Jana Poole acknowledged that, “Stepping on the court and realizing how big of a game that St. Pats was made me pumped up and ready to go all out. I knew we had a shot to get first place in league. We wanted revenge so bad!”

Revenge is exactly what the Cougars got. By winning the opening game 25-22, all of the momentum suddenly shifted to the red and white side. After a heartbreaking 27-25 defeat in the second game, the Lady Cougars kept their poise and finished of the so called “Mighty” Bruins, winning the final two games by scores of 25-16 and 25-20, clinching first place with their thrilling (3-1) victory.
