Tonight we will feature our second episode of We Go Live!, our new sketch comedy show originated this year by WTOP-10’s Original Productions Department.
Our members come together to brainstorm, write, create and produce these hysterical sketches to make an even better product than last semester. From a strange leprechaun taunting a child to a teenager telling his parents he is adopted, the sketches are creative and humorous.
Tune-in tonight (3/26) at 11p.m. for a show you will NOT want to miss!

Halloween Activities in Oswego
by Erin Meyer, WTOP10-TV
For college students who do not drink, finding a fun way to spend Halloween can be a bit of a challenge. But SUNY Oswego junior Ray Ossino says there’s plenty of options for sober scholars.
“I like to celebrate Halloween by going with a few of my friends to Lake Effect Cafe,” said Ossino. “They have a costume contest every Halloween, and then they have Halloween trivia.” She says campus events like this can be a great way to branch out.
“You get to meet new people, and through the people that I met there I found out that at the ice rink, they have open skate for Halloween too, and the also have a halloween costume contest there too.”
For students who want their Halloween weekend to be a bit scarier, Campus Recreation administrative assistant Jaydee Maldonado has a solution. She’s organized an upgrade for one of the campus’s most popular halloween events: the Scalesbury haunted house. Along with campus recreation, Maldonado has extended the haunted house to Lee Hall.
“This haunted house is actually going to be not only a haunted house,” said Maldonado. “It’s going to be a movie session at Scales Hall and then there is food, drinks and activities of all sorts relating to Halloween in Waterbury, and then Lee hall has the main event.” She says the addition of Lee Hall will elevate the haunted house from a quick event into all-night entertainment.
“I want us to continue to create events where students don’t always feel like they need to go out on weekends and do things off campus”, said Maldonado. She hopes the that these halloween events will inspire similar events in the college’s future.
Regardless of how you plan to spend your Halloween, WTOP wish you a happy one.

Brennan Butler would add the third goal in just under 4 minutes. Rachel Leonard would add the last goal for the lakers from Andrea Noss.
Junior goalie and ‘Fulton Phenom’ Tori Trovato got the win for the Lakers with a 17 save shutout. Cortland (1-2-1, 0-1-0 ECAC West) comes back looking for revenge against the Lakers tomorrow. Coverage starts on WTOP-10 and oswegolakers.com/watch at 2:30 PM.

2017 St. Baldrick’s Day
by Michael Allchin
Oswego, NY- The 11th annual St. Baldrick’s Day in Oswego County took place on Mar. 26 at the Lake Ontario Event and Conference Center. Participants of the event shaved their heads and donated their hair to cancer patients.
With the help of various volunteers and supervisors, the event raised a large portion of money for cancer research all over the world. Donations are spread out to various hospitals worldwide and are provided to the world’s top cancer researchers so they can find ways to cure kids with cancer. The event in Oswego raised more than $37,000.
Event Coordinator John Sheffield says he is proud to see the county come together to donate.
“This event restores my faith in humanity,” he said. “I have found that the people who often have the least to give are the ones with the most generous hearts.”
The Oswego State men’s lacrosse team and Oswego Firefighters are some of the organizations who donated money and volunteered their time.
To donate, go to St. Baldrick’s website or call (888) 899-2253.
