The win came in a previously unscheduled non-conference game against the NEWHL opponent due to changes in schedules caused by COVID issues at other schools.
For the second straight game, it was the visiting Lakers who opened the scoring. Freshman Ashlyn McGrath carried the puck around the back of the net on a delayed penalty call before taking a shot from the faceoff circle to beat Plattsburgh goaltender Ashley Davis.
The goal proved to be the only one of the night for the away team, and Plattsburgh had drawn the score level before the end of the opening period. Senior forward Taylor Whitney tied the game for the Cardinals at 8:46 of the period with a one-timer off a feed from Nicole Unsworth from behind the goal line.
Plattsburgh took the lead midway through the second period off a powerplay goal from senior forward Sara Krauseneck, assisted by graduate students Erin McArdle and Annie Katonka. McArdle took a shot from the point before Krauseneck got on the rebound and put the puck home.
Plattsburgh junior forward Ivy Boric got the insurance goal with a shot through the five-hole off an assist from McArdle before the end of the period. The final score of the game came early in the third period as sophomore forward Mae Olshansky scored off the assist from Unsworth.
Oswego generated some consistent offensive pressure in the final minutes of the game, pulling goaltender Joanna Hiebert for the 6-on-4 powerplay advantage, but 4 blocked shots, two wide shots, two saves by Davis, and a shot hitting the post kept the score at 4-1 for the final buzzer.
Davis recorded 25 saves in the victory, while Hiebert stopped 30 of the 34 shots she faced in the loss.
