Koch's big night helps Great Danes win Tom Perkovich's UAlbany football coaching debut

UAlbany's newly appointed head coach Tom Perkovich witnessed his rebuilt football team secure a 28-14 victory over New Hampshire, marking his debut as head coach in the Coastal Athletic Association. The University at Albany, after a sluggish start, gained control of the game and demonstrated healthy performances, both for coach Perkovich and quarterback Joey Koch, who returned from a devastating knee injury.

Although the Great Danes (1-0) currently sit halfway to last year's win total, they acknowledge the need for improvements, particularly in their passing game, as they prepare for an upcoming matchup against a Football Bowl Subdivision opponent.
