PC 73 Albany 43: Friars awake, roll in second half

PROVIDENCE – That’s it for the warm-up acts.

The Providence College Friars are done with the flotsam and jetsam on their schedule after dispatching the University of Albany Tuesday at the Dunkin’ Donuts Center, 73-43

Only the college basketball iron awaits now.

The Friar fans who sat through the first half of this matchup with the Great Danes wouldn’t feel their team was destined for much success. Those who stuck around left the building encouraged.

PC shot an awful 24 percent in the first 20 minutes and led 23-20. The second half was, thankfully, another story.
