Oswego State Women’s Basketball falls short this weekend
OSWEGO, N.Y. — It was a rough weekend for the Lakers as they suffered two unfortunate losses Friday and Saturday. The Lakers played the Buffalo State Bengals Friday. Despite a valiant effort, the Lakers fell short with a fourteen point loss. Oswego State was off to a great start with help by star sophomore Chastin Giles. Giles had yet another dominant performance scoring twenty-one points. Not an uncommon sight seeing her put up big numbers like this. Giles was splashin all night, scoring five three pointers. Senior Danielle Caivana also had a notable performance with fourteen points. Unfortunately the Lakers were outscored in the first three quarters making a fourth quarter comeback highly unlikely. Despite Outscoring the Bengals in the fourth, it wasn’t enough to get the job done. The Lakers then had to shift their attention to the Golden Eagles of Brockport who have been on a tear this year.
The Lakers took on SUNY Brockport Saturday in a very close game from start to finish. The Lakers put up a fight but sadly came up short in a twelve point loss. Both teams put up big numbers in the first quarter with the Golden Eagles putting up nineteen and the Lakers with sixteen. From there it was a battle. The Lakers were hungry for a victory and fought tooth and nail to come out on top. Senior Danielle Caivana had yet another great performance dropping sixteen points, twelve of those points coming from threes. Caivana is the backbone of this offense and will surely be missed next season. Freshman Shania Iglesias also put up sixteen yesterday. These two combined for half of the teams points this game. Brockport was able to break free in the third and fourth quarter, outscoring the Lakers by fifteen to solidify their victory. The Lakers have a week to recuperate and try to get back in the win column as they go on the road to take on Fredonia on December 11th at 12:00 p.m.Image Provided by Oswego State Athletics
