Title: Exciting Additions for Season 38 in Arena of Valor: New Hero Kongsang Joins the Fray!And he wanted one of them to start showing his all-conference form again. The Great Danes took advantage of an opportunity to check both of those boxes with a 93-50 win over the University of Puerto Rico-Mayaguez at the in the Puerto Rico Clasico tournament in San Juan. Killings played 14 players, only one of whom was out there for more than 20 minutes, and that was redshirt junior Amar’e Marshall, who scored 17 points on 6-for-9 from the field and 3 for 5 from 3-point range in 21 minutes. Marshall missed most of the preseason prep work with a thumb injury on his shooting hand, but Friday’s game showed he’s on the road back to where he was before the injury. “One of the priorities was to get Amar’e going,” Killings said via Zoom. “I don’t think he’s been as impactful as we want him to be and he wants to be. “But he’s probably practiced five times in six weeks. I think his instincts are coming back, his confidence is coming back, and we want to ride that wave through the next two games. If we’re going to win games, we need Amar’e Marshall to play really well.” UAlbany will play two more games in Puerto Rico, against Kansas City on Saturday and American on Sunday. Marshall showed some flashes of his old self in a 70-60 win over Siena in the Albany Cup at Broadview Center last Saturday, but Friday’s performance was more complete. Besides his scoring, he had five assists, three rebounds and two steals. “I was just trying to get into the groove of things, get that feeling of running up and down the court and tightening up my game,” Marshall said. “I feel like last time I hit the court, I was just playing sloppy.” “I think he’s an all-league player, and if he pushes himself, he’s Player of the Year in the league, so if we’re going to set the bar that high, I’ve got to be a little harder on what he’s doing out there,” Killings said. “This is a good step in the right direction.” The Great Danes (4-1) put the game away early, taking a 39-16 lead with over five minutes left in the first half. Marshall scored 10 points during that stretch. Byron Joshua had had 13 points and five assists for UAlbany, Aaron Reddish scored 12 and DeMarr Langford, Jr., scored 11. “Justin [Neely] had two great games. To see him come back and play that good, it shows how much firepower we’ve got,” Marshall said. “Everybody can have their night. It could be a different guy every day. I really enjoy playing for this team and feel like there’s multiple guys that can do it for us.” Wilkin Paulino, a 6-foot-3 combo guard out of Worcester, Massachusetts, has committed to join the Great Danes in 2025-26. "The New England native brings a level of toughness, competitiveness, and hunger that will help him find success early and have a positive impact as a freshman,” Killings said in a release this week. “We are excited about his recent growth as a player and believe his best basketball days are ahead of him.” Paulino plays AAU for The House We Built of the Hoop Group Elite AAU Circuit and currently attends Proctor Academy in Andover, New Hampshire, for which he was named team captain for the 2023-2024 and 2024-2025 seasons. He is ranked the 11th-best player in New Hampshire according to the New England Recruiting Report. Heading into the season, Paulino is averaging 14.8 points, 6.7 rebounds and 2.1 assists per game. “The reason why I chose UAlbany is because of the coaching staff, and how they took really good care of me and my mother when we visited," Paulino said in the release. "I saw how everyone in the coaching staff took time out of their day to start a bond with me, it felt like home. They also have a plan for me and I 100% trust them. I'm super excited to get to work on and off the court.”

One of the key factors that analysts point to when assessing the potential success of a Trump 2.0 administration is the composition of the cabinet. With nominees such as Nikki Haley for Secretary of State, Larry Kudlow for Treasury Secretary, and Tom Cotton for Defense Secretary, many see a lineup that is more aligned with traditional Republican establishment figures compared to the original Trump administration. This could indicate a move towards a more conventional approach to governance, which may help facilitate smoother policy implementation.CIBC Asset Management Inc bought a new position in ATI Inc.
