SARATOGA SPRINGS — The Saratoga Racers, an American Basketball Association (ABA) team, had its first public exhibition game last Saturday in the Gavin Park gym, falling short of the Bennington Martens, 63 to 78.
The Racers only trailed by three at the end of the first quarter, then were down eight at halftime. The Martens pulled further ahead in the third quarter, forcing Saratoga to play catch-up.
As of press time, the team was scheduled to play its next scrimmage game on Thursday, August 15 at Hackett Park in Albany.
The team also unveiled its jersey designs earlier this month. Both the white home jersey and black away jersey feature the racehorse logo above a mountain design.
The Racers will kick off their inaugural season in late October, playing home games in the Saratoga Central Catholic gym.
