SUNY Chancellor confident in Oswego’s testing strategies despite a rise in COVID-19 cases
OSWEGO, NY- After SUNY Oswego’s spike in COVID-19 cases sparked uncertainty, SUNY Chancellor Jim Malatras says he is confident in SUNY Oswego’s testing and mitigation strategies.
“It’s under control here,” says Malatras. “[Oswego] has the testing and isolation in place. If it does get to the point where they have to use more mitigation efforts, they stand ready to do that.”
SUNY Oswego saw it’s biggest spike in COVID-19 cases this semester over the weekend. Cases continue to rise. As of Wednesday, there are 64 total cases according to the COVID-19 dashboard.
The campus opened Funnelle hall as new quarantine housing, in addition to Lonis and Moreland halls. The building can house 208 students.
In a statement Monday morning, SUNY Oswego President Deborah Stanley says the college will re-start testing across campus, identifying exposures in classrooms and testing students and faculty in exposed classes. The college will also work with the City of Oswego to test wastewater in the residence halls.

Lakers Roll Past Keuka
The Oswego State men’s lacrosse team defeated the Keuka College Wolves 17-6 on Saturday. With the victory, the Lakers move to 5-1 overall while the Wolves drop to 3-2.

Tim Schof led the Lakers with four goals while Kyle Bacon scored three of his own. Keuka scored three straight goals in the third in what possibly looked like a run but Caleb Alford’s goal ended any momentum the Wolves had.
Oswego’s Kevin O’Donnell stopped six shots in the first half before giving way to Brody Carter and Harrison Levy. Carter and Levy made a combined seven saves.
The Lakers’ next game is scheduled for this Wednesday at 4:00 when they take on Utica College at home. This will also be the team’s St. Baldrick’s Foundation community service event.
