Reynolds Scores Lone Goal on Lakers’ Senior Day
The Oswego State field hockey team suffered their fifth straight loss after falling to Oneonta, 5-1 on Senior Day. After the defeat, the Lakers drop to 5-8 overall and 2-4 in the SUNYAC while the Red Dragons move to 13-3 overall and 5-1 in conference play.
In just the eighth minute of the contest, Oneonta’s Carissa Warren opened the scoring to put her team up 1-0. By the end of the period, the Red Dragons were carrying a 2-0 lead into halftime. Oswego’s lone score came in the 41st minute off an empty net goal by Katie Reynolds. However, it would not be enough as Oneonta would add three more in the second half. In her last start as a Laker at Laker Turf Stadium, goalie Sarita Charap had 16 saves.
The Lakers will look to end their regular season on a high note when they travel to St. John Fisher on Tuesday for a 5 pm contest.

Democratic Debate Gives First Look at Candidates
Last night marked the first of many Democratic Presidential Debates in which Hillary Clinton surprised many with her professional and poised approach. Along with candidates Bernie Sanders, Martin O’Malley, Jim Webb, and Lincoln Chafee.
Clinton has been listed as the frontrunner for the Democratic side of the Presidential Race for some time now, but candidate Bernie Sanders’ recent uprising in the polls has given her campaign some fits.
Many were excited and curious to see how Sanders would be in the debate, and he stayed true to himself, being the ultra-progressive, almost revolutionary candidate that many Democratic voters have fallen in love with.
The major piece to take from this debate is the overall sense of unity of the candidates that was not seen in the Republican Debate. For the most part, all five candidates agreed on the same set of principles including higher taxes on the wealthy and stricter gun regulations. Where they did differ is on their plans on how to achieve their goals.
Overall, Clinton seemed to show off her confidence as being the frontrunner, whereas Bernie Sanders stuck with his radical approach that may have won him a couple voters. While we do not know for sure who will emerge from the Democratic Party for President, what we can be sure of is that it will be an election for the ages.
