OSWEGO, N.Y. – The Oswego State women's basketball team lost a 72-59 contest to host Geneseo on Tuesday night. With the conference loss, the Lakers overall record is 8-16 with a 6-11 mark in the SUNYAC while the Knights remain atop the league standings at 19-4, 15-1. The defeat eliminates Oswego from playoff contention.

Oswego controlled the game early, leading Geneseo for the majority of the opening 12 minutes. The Lakers held a margin of as many as seven in that starting span, but a 3-pointer at 6:52 by the Knights stole back the lead, one they would never relinquish.
