Port City Co-Op is an antique store that is hidden on West Second Street in downtown Oswego. The store celebrated its two year anniversary on Tuesday, November 1. Linda Demassi had the idea to open up Port City Co-Op and help bring more local businesses to Oswego.

Originally the store opened with ten vendors but now there are 37. With more vendors selling their items, the store needed to be expanded and that is when the owners of Port-City bought out the soap store that is located nextdoor.

Antiques and unique items are not the only reason why people shop here. Mary Waite is a regular at Port City and says she loves all the different items because it brings back nostalgic memories. It reminds her of her childhood.

Linda Demassi encourages people to shop local because, “it’s huge to shop local, for the economy, the city. Shopping local is huge to keep the small businesses”

Port City Co-Op is opened on Tuesdays and Wednesdays from 11am to 5pm, Thursday to Friday from 11am to 6pm, Saturday from 11am to 5pm and Sunday from 11am to 3pm.

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.

Wednesday morning, SUNY Oswego students took to the campus grounds to protest issues regarding Tuesday night’s presidential results. The protest began in the quad on campus around 10 a.m. Students held signs and chanted, walked across campus entering dining halls, residence halls, the Marano Campus Center, and ending back in the quad mid day. University Police was not involved and there has been no official email regarding the incident.

Following the protest, students met in a Marano Campus Center classroom to continue their talk on the election results. The meeting was led by SUNY Oswego’s Black Student Union and African Student Organization. During this open forum, many students were outraged with Tuesday night’s results and expressed their concerns for their future. An anonymous protestor commented on Donald Trump’s upcoming presidency stating, “Allowing him into office is policing us not only as people, but as a nation.”

This has been a trend across the United States in the past 24 hours. According to CNN.com, protests have broken out in major cities across the U.S. since the final polls were released Tuesday night. From New York City to Los Angeles, thousands of people have taken to the streets in protest of Donald Trump and in promotion of social movements.
