nonconference tilt 3-0 to Elmira on Saturday afternoon at Laker Turf
Stadium. With the loss, the Lakers fall to 2-7 on the year while the

Oswego's defense finished with four saves on the day, three coming from field players. Sophomore's Monica Harvey and Emily Brockwell teamed up for the total, with Harvey stopping one and Brockwell nixing two on the same play. Senior Grace Lombardi, the Lakers' starting goalie, made the other save for Oswego.

Soaring Eagles' tally was its first of the day, coming directly off a
penalty corner pass just over 10 minutes into the contest.
