OSWEGO, N.Y. — The Oswego State Men’s Lacrosse game lost their sixth game of the season, falling to the Geneseo Knights 20-4 on Saturday. This is the Lakers second consecutive loss to the Knights as they were previously defeated 19-8 on April 22nd. Oswego now drops to 0-6 in 2021 with only one game remaining in their schedule.
Geneseo was dominant early on, scoring the first 5 goals of the game and holding Oswego scoreless in the first quarter. Junior attackman, Weston Gray, scored the Lakers first goal early in the second quarter, but Oswego was unable to keep pace with Geneseo’s high-powered offense. The Knights went on a 4-1 scoring run to end the first half and outscored the Lakers 11-2 the rest of the game. Geneseo was shooting the ball at a fast and substantial rate throughout the game. The Knights totaled 72 shots and held the Lakers to only 26, including 9 in the first half. Dan Doolan, Ryan Eccles, and Garrett Petrelli all had goals in Saturday’s matchup. Geneseo junior attackman, Kevin Cook, was once again a huge problem for Oswego’s defense. He totaled 5 goals and 1 assist in their previous game and he followed it up with another 5-goal performance.
Oswego was eliminated from postseason play earlier this week while Geneseo will be looking ahead to their upcoming playoff game in the SUNYAC Championship. The Lakers haven’t won a game this season but will have the opportunity to improve to 1-6 on April 30th vs the Cortland Red Dragons. Oswego is 0-37 versus Cortland all-time and will need to capture their first victory to avoid a winless season. Faceoff is set for 4:00 p.m. on Friday, April 30th at Cortland.
