Oswego State Softball gets set for RIT
The Oswego State Softball team takes the field Monday, March 22nd, for the first time since May 4th, 2019. The Lakers go on the road to take on RIT in a Monday afternoon doubleheader slated to take place at 3:00 p.m. and 5:00 p.m. The Lakers nearly 700 day off season is shown in roster changes. Four of the 14 girls who appeared in the most recent game, against Cortland in the SUNYAC playoffs are on the roster this year. The 2021 Oswego softball roster features ten newcomers along with seven upperclassmen who return from the 2019 team. The upperclassmen on the team will have a big leadership role this year because the two classes have not seen game action in their college careers.
The Tigers of RIT also have not yet played a game this season, but they were able to play ten in 2020 when they went 7-3 overall. The Tigers feature a very experienced team with nine upperclassmen plus two graduate students. Oswego starts their season with four games in Rochester, with two games against RIT at 3:00 and 5:00 Monday, March 22, as well as 1:00 and 3:00 Sunday March 28 at St. John Fisher. All of these games are non-conference as SUNYAC play does not start until April 1st.

Oswego State Softball Heads to Brockport for Doubleheader
BROCKPORT, N.Y. — Oswego State Softball heads to the road this weekend, eager to steal 4 crucial SUNYAC West division points against a familiar foe in the Brockport Golden Eagles. Oswego has gotten the best of Brockport and most of their recent matchups, winning 8 of 10 matchups since the 2016 season. However for this doubleheader, it will be crucial Oswego are able to complete a sweep to jump over Brockport in the standings to make a last minute push for a playoff spot. The Lakers are currently last in the SUNYAC West Standings.
In their last meeting almost a month ago, the Lakers were able to split the doubleheader with Brockport with lots of offense in their win and very little in the loss. Oswego would lose their first game of the series 5-2 but were able to bounce back with a convincing win 9-3 and Zoe Mennig and Madelana Wrubel contributed with two runs a piece. It will be a battle for the Lakers nonetheless as they have not swept the Golden Eagles on their home field since April of 2017.
As for Brockport they have been fairly 50/50 with going 3-3 in their last 6 as well as going 5-5 currently on the entire season including the SUNYAC. Brockport will look to rely on names such as Olivia Hayden to carry the offense as she leads the team in hits as well as runs. It sure should be a good one at the Clark V. Whited Complex in Brockport as two teams try and push for that two seed in the West Division through the fading stretch of the season, first pitch scheduled for 12 p.m. for the first game and 2 p.m. for game two.
