The University at Albany athletics program continued its success in the 2005-06 athletic year. Withmomentum from the 2004-05 Stuart P. Haskell, Jr. Commissioner's Cup, which recognizes the stron-gest athletic program in the America East Conference, the Great Danes captured five conferencechampionships, two regular-season championships, and saw numerous student-athletes garner indi-vidual accolades, including five All-America honorees.

UAlbany won America East championships in men's basketball, men's indoor and outdoor track &field, women's outdoor track & field, and softball. In addition, the Great Danes were runners-up inwomen's indoor track & field and men's lacrosse. Volleyball and men's basketball also won confer-ence regular-season titles, led by America East Conference Player of the Years and All-AmericansBlair Buchanan and Jamar Wilson, respectively.

In addition, men's basketball captured its first-ever NCAA Tournament berth, becoming the firstSUNY Division I team to accomplish that feat. Building on the mantra "Why not us?" the Great Danesnearly became the first 16-seed to topple a one-seed when they faced the University of Connecticut.Softball became the first women's program to make back-to-back trips to NCAA post-season play,while Gered Burns, Joe Greene and Marc Pallozzi became the first Division I track & field All-Ameri-cans for the Great Danes.

UAlbany sponsors 19 NCAA Division I intercollegiate athletic programs, with 18 teams competingin the America East Conference. Football, a Division I-AA program, has been an associate member ofthe Northeast Conference since 1999.
