The Oswego State women’s hockey team lost to the Buffalo State Bengals by a score of 2-1 on Sunday. With the loss, the Lakers drop to 3-2 on the season and 1-1 in the NEWHL while the Bengals move to 2-4 with a 2-2 conference record.

Throughout the game, the Lakers held their own as they outshot the Bengals 26 to 21 and won 14 more faceoffs. They were also the first to get on the board after Kate Randazzo found Andrea Noss for the goal. The assist was Randazzo’s team leading fifth assist of the season. The momentum shifted starting in the second period though with Buffalo State’s Erin Gehen finding the back of the net. While the Lakers seemed to regain the momentum in the beginning of the third, a bouncing puck off the stick of a Bengal landing past Oswego’s goalie Mariah Madrigal ended it.

In between the pipes, Madrigal played nearly the entire game for the Lakers and finished with 19 saves.

Oswego will see their next action on Saturday when they travel to Plattsburgh to take on the Cardinals at 3 pm.

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.
