Lakers Hold Off RIT
The Oswego State women’s lacrosse team defeated the RIT Tigers by a score of 15-13 on Monday. With the win, the Lakers move to 2-0 overall while the Tigers drop to 0-1.
Oswego found themselves down early in the game as they trailed 3-1. They would respond though with a 9-0 run led by Toni Laneve and Brigid Regin. While it seemed at times the Lakers would seal the game, the Tigers kept clawing their way back in it. RIT outscored Oswego by four goals in the second half but fell just short.
Regin led all scorers with a game-high five goals while Laneve added a hat trick. Oswego’s Teresa Shattuck played a part in seven of the team’s scores with three goals and four assists.
The Lakers will head on the road for the first time this season to take on Clarkson University on Wednesday. Face-off is scheduled for 4 pm.

Fake ID’s Seized Following joint effort to Combat Underage Drinking
This past weekend, members of the Police Department along with investigators from the New York State Department of Motor Vehicles, SUNY Oswego police officers and local business owners; worked together to try and combat underage drinking and the use of fake ID’s.
Over 24 people were issued citations for attempting to use fake identification on Friday night. All fake ID’s were confiscated by DMV investigators.
The operation was conducted at three bars on West Bridge Street; Alley Cat’s on 23 W. Bridge Street, The Raven on 39 W. Bridge Street and The Sting on 49 W. Bridge Street.
This initiative is part of Governor Cuomo’s “No Excuses” Campaign which has conducted sweeps called “Operation Prevent” across the state to prevent underage drinking in New York State and keep New York Roadway’s safe.
Mayor Billy Barlow has been outspoken about the efforts made to prevent underage drinking, saying “The collaborative effort between local law enforcement, DMV investigators, local bar owners, SUNY Oswego and the city of Oswego, emphasizes the importance of these types of sweeps in our community.”
