Mighty Taco Makes A Long Awaited Comeback
Mighty Taco will be making an appearance again in Central New York.
Last Friday, Mighty Taco announced on Facebook that they will be opening a new location in Cicero, NY. The food chain will be taking the place of an old Tim Horton’s.
Mighty Taco is a Mexican style restaurant that started in the city of Buffalo in 1973 and it has been a fan favorite ever since it started and has spread out to, with the addition of this new location, 24 locations.
Mighty Taco is primarily based around the Buffalo area and western New York, and the new location will now be the farthest east of any of the other Mighty Taco locations. It is also the second time the franchise tried starting up in the Syracuse area.
The last time Mighty Taco was in the Syracuse area was when it had a location in Carousel Center, now known as Destiny USA.
Given the continuous growth, Mighty Taco believes they are now ready to take on the challenge of starting up in Syracuse.

Lakers Lose in Stunner Against Potsdam
The Oswego State men’s ice hockey team lost against the Potsdam Bears by a score of 1-0. After the loss, the Lakers drop to 18-4-2 overall and 13-1-1 in SUNYAC play while the Bears move to 10-9-5 on the season.
Aside from a power play goal from Potsdam in the first period, the game consisted of only chances. The Lakers outshot the Bears 42-20 but were unable to find the back of the net mainly due to the play of Potsdam’s goalie, Brendan McMeninmen. Max Novick led Oswego with a career high 10 shots.
The SUNYAC’s leader in goals against average and save percentage, David Richer, stopped 19 shots for the Lakers.
Oswego will have its regular season finale tomorrow against Plattsburgh in their annual Whiteout Game at 7:00 pm. The team will also honor its three seniors including captain Mitch Herlihey as part of Senior Day.
