The Oswego State volleyball team split a doubleheader at Max Ziel Gymnasium this afternoon as they defeated Oneonta 3-1 and then fell to Fredonia by the same score. After today’s games, Oswego is now 9-11 on the season and 3-3 in conference play. Conference foe, Oneonta, falls to 8-14 overall and 2-3 in the SUNYAC with Fredonia moving to 13-7 and 5-1 in the conference.

Against Oneonta, Allison Sullivan and Lauren Fie each had seven kills by the end of the second set to give the Lakers a 2-0 lead. While they struggled in the third set, largely due to a 10-2 run by the Red Dragons, Oswego regained their rhythm to win the contest. Leading the Lakers on the court were Alison Berger with 15 assists and Sarah Braddon with 15 digs on defense.

With momentum from their last match on their side, Oswego jumped out to a 1-0 lead against Fredonia. That would be the only set that they would come out on top in though, as crucial runs by the Blue Devils led to wins by scores of 25-12, 25-23, and 25-17. On the offensive side, Allison Sullivan and Laura Finn led the Lakers with eight kills apiece while Julia Flohr contributed eighteen assists as well as six digs on defense.

Oswego’s will be back in action in Canton next Saturday for a doubleheader where they will take on the ‘Roos and Maine Fort-Kent.

The Oswego State women’s hockey team lost to the Buffalo State Bengals by a score of 2-1 on Sunday. With the loss, the Lakers drop to 3-2 on the season and 1-1 in the NEWHL while the Bengals move to 2-4 with a 2-2 conference record.

Throughout the game, the Lakers held their own as they outshot the Bengals 26 to 21 and won 14 more faceoffs. They were also the first to get on the board after Kate Randazzo found Andrea Noss for the goal. The assist was Randazzo’s team leading fifth assist of the season. The momentum shifted starting in the second period though with Buffalo State’s Erin Gehen finding the back of the net. While the Lakers seemed to regain the momentum in the beginning of the third, a bouncing puck off the stick of a Bengal landing past Oswego’s goalie Mariah Madrigal ended it.

In between the pipes, Madrigal played nearly the entire game for the Lakers and finished with 19 saves.

Oswego will see their next action on Saturday when they travel to Plattsburgh to take on the Cardinals at 3 pm.
