2016-17 Preseason Schedule Announced
Posted by on June 15, 2016
I have to go back and look for comparison sake when the preseason schedule was announced in prior years but Coal Street announced theirs today. They are as follows:
Thursday, October 6 vs. Albany
Saturday, October 8 vs. Hershey
Sunday, October 9 at Hershey
Times for the home games start at 7:05. The Sunday game in Hershey starts at 5.
Regular season schedule won’t be announced until mid to late August, so we have a ways to go before the whole 2016-17 playing schedule is announced by the League.
Hmm, another preseason of only 3 games rather than 4. I wonder if Albany will be joining our division to replace “Portfield”. Would think Bingo would be more likely.
I wouldn’t read too much into any of that. Albany will probably have their preseason camp in NJ. It’s probably a quicker trip to come here than to go back home and play in Albany.
makes sense
