ALBANY, N.Y. -- The UAlbany men's lacrosse team will conclude its Fall Ball season with a pair of home
scrimmages held over Alumni Weekend on Friday, October 12th and
Saturday, October 13th. The Great Danes will welcome back all
Great Dane Alumni to John Fallon Field for several events.
On Friday,
Oct. 12th, the UAlbany squad will hold a scrimmage against The Hill
Academy at 7 p.m. The Hill Academy is a Post-Graduate school in Vaughn,
Ontario. The team is coached by former UAlbany standout Merrick Thomson
'07. Thomson graduated as the programs all-time
scoring leader with 244 points (188 goals, 56 assists).
On Saturday
at noon, the Great Danes will play an Alumni Game, pitting the current
student-athletes against a squad made up of former UAlbany players. All events
will take place on John Fallon Field.
To
commemorate the end of the fall season, UAlbany midfielder Brendan Murphy put
together a video with clips and highlights from practice sessions. Murphy
filmed with a helmet cam, so fans can get a player's-eye-view of what it's like
to be a Great Dane.
