UAlbany's Coach Abe wins AE COY

The University at Albany women's basketball team has turned things around under coach Katie Abrahamson-Henderson. 

In just two seasons, Coach Abe has led the Great Danes to the No. 2 seed in the America East Conference and a 20-win season, the program's first at the Division I level.

On Thursday, Coach Abrahamson-Henderson was named America East Coach of the Year.

Junior guard/forward Ebone Henry was named to the all-conference first team, in addition to repeating as the league's defensive player of the year.

Julie Forster was named to the second team. Forster also joined Henry on the all-defense team. Forster, who carries 3.97 GPA, was also named to the all-academic team.

Here is a link to the conference's release.

UAlbany will take on No. 7 Vermont, in Friday's third quarterfinal, at 6 p.m., at the University of Hartford.

The men's awards will be given out on Friday evening.
