The Great Danes dropped a tough game Wednesday night.

They had a couple of chances to win the game, including freshman Ralph Watts, missing two free throws in the waning second of regulation.

Watts was 2-for-7 from the free throw line and the team shot an awful 7-for-20 (35 percent), but of course, that's not the only reason UAlbany dropped the game.

It was not a shooting clinic, as both UAlbany (22-67) and New Hampshire (22-69) shot less than 33 percent from the field for the evening.

One positive was the play of freshman Luke Devlin, who 10 points, grabbed 14 rebounds, made two blocks and grabbed two steals.

Devlin is making a great case for an all-rookie selection.

This game hurts UAlbany in the standings and it's the first conference game they've lose to a team with a worse record than them.
