Albany: Albany Rewards Brown



Albany Rewards Brown: After coach Will Brown led No. 16 Albany to its best season at the Division I level and a near upset of No. 1 Connecticut in the NCAA Tournament, school officials rewarded him with a five-year contract extension. The Great Danes finished 21-11 this season and won the America East Conference championship. Against the Huskies, Albany led by 12 midway through the second half, forcing a furious rally by the Huskies to dodge the most shocking upset of all time. Brown has helped lift the program from the D-I cellar. Before this season, the Great Danes never finished above .500 in nine seasons. [3/29/06]
