Oswego, N.Y. – Tori Trovato of the women’s ice hockey team has been named the Oswego State Female Athlete of the Week for the week ending February 23, 2014.
Oswego State hosted No. 1 Plattsburgh for the last two games of the regular season this past weekend. The Cardinals defeated the Lakers Friday, 1-0, and then on Saturday, 2-0, in the Campus Center.
Saturday, the sophomore had a career high 40 saves, only allowing Plattsburgh two goals at 12:12 and 18:51 in the first period. Her goal tending was on point as she held the No. 1 Cardinals scoreless for the remaining 40 minutes of the game. She was tested as Plattsburgh had three power plays throughout the contest that Trovato and the Lakers managed to kill.
The Lakers wrapped up the regular season with 16-8-1 overall mark and 10-5-1 record in ECAC West play. This marks the best record in the program’s history. Seated third, the Lakers will start their playoff run against No. 6 Buffalo State with a home ice advantage at 3p.m. on Saturday.
