STUDENT ATHLETES FOCUS OF SEPT. 19 PEP RALLY
OSWEGO -- Student athletes from SUNY Oswego's eight
fall intercollegiate teams will be introduced to the campus community
at the Fall Sports Pep Rally at 12:30 p.m. Friday, Sept. 19.
The event will take place near the Hewitt Union
north patio (or in the Hewitt Union ballroom in the case of inclement
weather). There will be gifts and giveaways provided by various teams
and the athletics promotions committee.
Tim Hale, the new athletic director at SUNY Oswego,
will serve as master of ceremonies. Teams represented will include
men's and women's soccer, men's and women's cross country, women's
volleyball, women's field hockey, women's tennis and men's golf.
"This is a new activity that we hope will turn into
an annual tradition," Hale said. "We want students, faculty and staff
to know more about our student athletes, teams and recreational
opportunities available on campus."
The following day, the Laker women's soccer team
will host SUNY Institute of Technology at 1 p.m., and the women's field
hockey team will play Union College at 2 p.m. Both games will take
place at SUNY Oswego's south athletic complex on campus.
