OSWEGO, N.Y. – It was a week of ups and downs for Laker women’s hockey this weekend as they had some success and some troubles. The Lakers took on the Buff State Bengals Friday in a game that was an absolute massacre from start to finish. The Bengals have been really struggling this season with only three wins to their name. The Lakers were happy to add another loss to their record with a whopping 9-2 victory. It was the Mack Hull, Simone Bednarik, and Ashlyn Mcgrath show as they all got a piece of the pie with multiple goals on the day. Mack Hull had three goals on the day, two in the first period and one early on in the second to set her team up for success. Bednarik would score the first goal of the game and from there the Lakers completely dominated the rest of the contest. The Bengals were able to score two goals throughout the game but it was nowhere close enough to get the job done. The Lakers would look to keep the momentum rolling as they headed into a big home game against the Plattsburgh Cardinals the following day.
The Lakers did not have the same success they had the day before as they fell to the Cardinals in a hard fought battle until the very end. Plattsburgh got on the board fourteen minutes into the first to put them in the driving seat. The Lakers were far from out of the game however as Ashlyn Mcgrath would score her 10th goal of the season to tie up the came in the second period. Mcgrath has been on an absolute tear this season as she has been dominating for the Lakers in every game. Plattsburgh would break the tie in the third and despite the valiant effort, would suffer a 2-3 loss in a close fought battle. The Lakers are now 8-4 and will play at home against Amherst College January 3rd at 5:00pm.
