OSWEGO, NY — Women’s Hockey battled the Morrisville Mustangs Tuesday afternoon in the Marano Campus Center in the first round of the NEWHL playoffs. The Lakers defeated the Mustangs 1-0 and will advance to play Plattsburgh in the finals. Senior Eryn Stewart scored the lone goal for the Lakers as the forward tipped a shot from Philomena Teggart on the power play in the second period. Oswego held on for the remainder of the contest as goaltender Rachel Farmer recorded the shutout as the netminder saved 22 shots.
Oswego now looks ahead to Plattsburgh as the group will go on the road on Saturday to North Country. Plattsburgh, the number one team in the nation, defeated Cortland 3-0 this past weekend. The Lakers are definitely looking for an upset as the two teams will face off at 3 p.m. in the Ronald B. Stafford Ice Arena.
