Oswego High School Girls Bucaneers Hockey: Julia Roman commits to WNE
OSWEGO, NY — Wednesday Morning, June 3rd, the Western New England Women’s Hockey team announced the commitment of Oswego Buccaneer Julia Roman. The Oswego native attended Oswego High School and played on the Oswego High School Girls Hockey team along with the school’s soccer team. The Senior was named Captain this season for the Bucs and led the group to a 9-8 overall record and finished fourth in the season standings. The team would fall to the Section III Champions, the Clinton Warriors, in the semifinals of Sectionals. Roman, a right handed shot, would tally 7 points (2 goals & 5 assists) over the course of her senior season and led defenseman in points along side freshman Mia Fierro. The defenseman recorded 17 points over the past three seasons in a Buccaneers uniform.
Western New England University is located just outside Springfield, Massachusetts, and is a part of the Commonwealth Coast Conference, who will now recognize Women’s Hockey with a conference championship. The Golden Bear announced last June that the college would start a Women’s Hockey team at the start of the 2020-21 season. The Division III program would join the new conference along with Suffolk University. A majority of this conference is made up of members of the CHC, the Colonial Hockey Conference. The CHC will has recently disbanded after the creation of the newer conference. This conference winner will get an automatic bid to the Division III Women’s Hockey Championship. The Oswego State Lakers have yet to play a CHC opponent in program history, so the return of Julia Roman to Oswego to play against the green and gold is unlikely. WTOP 10 will continue to deliver updates on both the Oswego High School Buccaneers and the Oswego High School Girls Buccaneers Hockey teams next season as both teams currently prepare for the 2020-21 season.
