This weekend, the women’s hockey team travelled to Willamstown, MA to take on Williams.

On Saturday, the Lakers would defeat the Ephs 7-2. At the end of the second period, the Lakers were up 2-0. In the third period, Alexa Aramburu would contribute to the five goal period by scoring three out of the five goals. This would be Aramburu’s second-career hat trick. Olivia Ellis also had a great game scoring one goal and assisting on all three of Aramburu’s goals.

On Sunday, the Lakers would again defeat the Ephs, but this time only by a score of 1-0. The lone goal came from Alexa Aramburu in the second period. Jacquelin White and Olivia Ellis assisted Aramburu’s goal. Mariah Madrigal recorded her second shutout of the season and seventh victory. Madrigal stopped all 32 of the Ephs’ on-goal attempts. She has now made 25 or more saves in each of her last three outings, all culminating in wins.

The Lakers will return home this weekend and play Canton in a Friday night game and a Saturday afternoon game.

OSWEGO, N.Y.– For the cross country team this past weekend was one of the most important of the entire season. The team’s championship meet was held in Houghton NY.
Oswego Women’s Cross country team member Morgan Bronner said that she has enjoyed her last season with her teammates.

“The goal is to be the best I can be at the end of the season. Overall I think this has been a good season with a bunch of girls I really loved, It was enjoyable,” Bronner said.

Oswego Men’s Cross country team member Colin Greenseich finished 15th overall and earned a qualification spot to nationals. Greenseich no stranger to winning.

“I’d say my team favorite part was when we came in 3rd at SUNYAC. The was really big, huge for us. We didn’t do as well at regionals but coming in 3rd at SUNYACs was a really big deal. I was very happy about that. And at regionals, coming in 15th
and making it to nationals this week is really exciting,” Greenseich said.

OSWEGO, N.Y. – October is Domestic Violence Awareness Month, and SUNY Oswego is taking action on campus through a variety of events. The One Love Foundation and SUNY Oswego teamed up to share the story of Yeardley Love.  Yeardley was killed in 2010 due to a domestic violence altercation with her ex-boyfriend.

Yeardley’s mother, Sharon Love, aims to spread awareness through college campuses.

As a mother, Mrs. Love says, “my biggest concern was that she may be injured on the lacrosse field or, even worse, be hurt in a car accident. Relationship violence was never on my radar screen.”

SUNY Oswego “It’s On Oz” campaign held events this month.  Lisa Evaneski, the Title IX coordinator at SUNY Oswego set up workshops this past week addressing sexual and domestic violence, specifically in college relationships, and how to make Oswego’s campus a safer one.  Evaneski says these workshops are not just for students who have experienced domestic violence, but for everyone else on campus as well, so that they can recognize it.

This Thursday, October 20, SUNY Oswego students will be encouraged to “turn the campus purple” in honor of victims of relationship abuse and also to “shine a light” on the cause.  

Other events will be taking place on campus throughout October as well, such as the “SUNY’s Got Your Back” event, where volunteers will put together comfort kits for victims and survivors of interpersonal violence.
