OSWEGO, N.Y. — The Oswego State Softball team has been preparing for a non-conference doubleheader against the Cortland Red Dragons. This matchup taking place Tuesday, May 4th at Laker Softball Field will be a test to see if the Lakers can extend their one game win streak. Oswego is coming off a split this past weekend with the Brockport Golden Eagles. The Lakers squad was able to bounce back in game two with a 7-6 victory this past Saturday after falling 8-1 to the Golden Eagles. Unfortunately, Oswego has been eliminated from playoff contention after posting a 5-9 conference record heading into the final week of the regular season.
Cortland makes the trip up Interstate 81 with a five game win streak and the number one seed in the SUNYAC East division in tow. The Red Dragons are 16-6 overall this season and have not seen the Lakers in exactly two years. The two teams faced off in Cortland on May 4th, 2019 with the Red Dragons shutting out the Lakers with a 7-0 victory. Oswego has only nine victories against the Cortland program with their last win coming at home back in the 2018 season. Oswego will look to break it’s four game losing streak against Cortland today at home. Game one is set to kick off at 3:00 p.m. and game two will tentatively start at 5:00 p.m. on the Laker Softball Field. WTOP 10 will be at the field to catch all the action.
