CLIFTON PARK She had too many options.
That was the (good) problem facing Kendra Harbinger this summer, as the standout athlete tried to figure out what was next for herself.
Should the former Shenendehowa High School star stay at UAlbany, and play soccer and lacrosse?
Maybe just one of the sports during her extra year of NCAA eligibility, which was granted because of the novel coronavirus pandemic’s impact on college athletics?
Or should she head elsewhere?
“My head was spinning,” Harbinger said.
No longer.
With a decision made and the uncertainty behind her, Harbinger said Sunday she’s thrilled to know she’ll continue her college career at UMass, where the Clifton Park native will join a women’s lacrosse squad coming off a 15-3 season that included an Atlantic 10 Conference championship and a berth in the NCAA tournament.

The Bears upset second-seeded Coastal Carolina on Thursday and then upset Furman, the top seed, in Saturday afternoon’s conference championship game 14-13.
