OSWEGO, N.Y. — The Oswego State Women’s Lacrosse team won their first SUNYAC game of the 2021 season, defeating SUNY Fredonia 16-10. It wasn’t just the Women’s Lacrosse team’s home opener, but the first Oswego home game in over 395 days. The Lakers defended home field exceptionally well as they lead for a majority of the game and never let the Blue Devils run their offensive systems smoothly.

Fredonia’s Madeline Haney started off strong, scoring the games first goal five minutes into regulation. However, that was the only lead Fredonia would have all game as the Lakers went on to score the next 5 goals, including back-to-back goals from freshman midfielder Shae McConnell. Oswego played tremendous defense all game, especially in the first half, giving up only 3 goals. The Blue Devils were more efficient in the second half, however they weren’t able to generate enough offense to keep up with the Lakers. Sophomore midfielder, Sela Wiley, played phenomenal once again, totaling 5 goals and 2 assists in the Oswego victory. Kamryn Sherman and Shae McConnell each had 4 goals apiece, while Isabella Lembo (2) and Logan Castiglione (1) also scored. Junior goalkeeper, Delaney Kendrick, held the Blue Devil offense in check as she totaled 5 saves and cleared the ball effectively all game. The Oswego Women’s Lacrosse team will have the opportunity to continue their 2021 season undefeated when they take on SUNY Geneseo on Wednesday, April 10th, at 4 PM.
