To the 2nd period we go and it was a much tighter checking period, as Oswego outshot Brockport 9-4, and once again the Lakers got a late goal to take a two goal lead. Chris Carr scored his 5th of the year at the 17:47 mark to give the Lakers the important two goal lead heading into the 3rd period. Once the 3rd got started, it didn't take Oswego as long to find the back of the net as it had in the first two periods. At the 4:59 mark of the 3rd, Chris Ayotte scored his 13th of the year to increase the lead to three. Brockport finally got on the board when Kody Vaisanen scored his first of the season, a shorthanded goal, at the 13:16 mark to cut the Lakers lead down to two. Oswego would put the game away in the final five minutes of the hockey game. Brockport closed out the game shorthanded when Shane Cavalieri was given a five minute major for contact to the head and a ten minute misconduct penalty. Oswego scored twice on that powerplay, when Luke Moodie scored his 14th of the year and Chris Muise score his 5th of the year, a little over a minute apart to seal the deal on the 5-1 win.

Andrew Hare picked up the win for Oswego, improving his record to 12-3-0, as he made 20 saves in the win. Zach josepher (two assists) and Chris Muise (goal two assists) were the only Lakers to record multi-point games. For Chris Carr, it was his first game winning goal of the year.
So after taking down Brockport, the Geneseo Ice Knights came into town for the 2nd and final meeting of the year between the two clubs. In the first meeting of the yea between the two back on November 3rd in Geneseo, the Lakers offense exploded in a big way as they walked away with a 10-1 victory. This night would be a much tighter hockey game. Geneseo was embarrassed on their home ice last time around, and they jump all over Oswego in the first period of this game. the Ice Knights got on the board first 1:01 into the hockey game when Corbin Rosmarin scored his 9th of the year. Oswego got things even at the 11:23 mark when Paul Rodrigues scored his 14th of the year, a powerplay goal, to tie the game. Genseso would not go away so easily, as at the 19:02 mark of the period Carson Schell scored his 2nd of the season to give the Ice Knights the 2-1 lead.
Geneseo held the lead into the 2nd period, but that lead would not last very long. Oswego would even the score at the 6:21 mark when Zach Josepher scored his 7th of the season. For Josepher that was his first goal in eleven games. the last time he scored was back on November 30th, a 6-0 home win over Potsdam. So Josepher games Oswego the tying goal. Oswego would take the lead at the 9:00 mark when Jon Whitelaw scored his 6th of the season. Oswego carried the one goal lead into the 3rd period.
The Lakers held the lead well into the 3rd period but at the 12:32 mark Corbin Rosmarin scored his 2nd of the game and 10th of the year to pull the Ice Knights even. Then a hero would emerge for the Lakers as at the 15:16 mark David Titanic scored his 6th of the year, which would prove to be the game winner. It happened of a broken play near the left wing circle, and Titanic just threw it on net and caught Adrian Rubeniuk sleeping and beat him glove side for the winner.
