Men’s Soccer Wins SUNYAC Opener
The Oswego State men’s soccer team opened up SUNYAC play with a 1-0 win over New Paltz. Oswego’s victory marked the first time since this day in 2006 that the program won its conference opener.
The first and only score of the game came in the 59th minute as Lakers’ forward, Hassan Musa, netted his team-leading seventh goal of the season.
On the defensive side of the ball, Oswego held the Hawks to just three shots on goal. Goalkeeper, Brian Terra, improved his record to 4-1-0 after notching his second consecutive shutout.
Oswego, now 6-1-1 on the season will look to extend their winning streak to three games as they take on Oneonta tomorrow at 1:00 pm at Laker Turf Stadium.

Students rally across campus in a peaceful protest against the shooting of Jacob Blake
OSWEGO, NY- Students marched across campus Thursday in peaceful protest of the Jacob Blake shooting.
The Rally was led by Brandon Gonzalez, who read off a list of demands for the Oswego administration. One of the demands includes banning the use of chokeholds by University Police.
Oswego Sophomore Jacques Allrichnaugaus II was among the peaceful protestors who shared his story.
“As a black American, I can say it’s hard to live in a white society,” said Allrichnaugaus II. “If you don’t know the struggle and don’t know somebody that went through the struggle, I urge you to learn about it. Learn about our history.”
This comes as national Black Live Matter protests have resumed in a response to the shooting, and just a day after athletes across the country boycotted games in solidarity of the national movement.
