Bowdoin at Oswego NCAA Tournament game postponed until 3 PM tomorrow

The NCAA D-III men's hockey first round game between the NESCAC champion Bowdoin College Polar Bears at the SUNYAC champion Oswego Lakers has been postponed, per SUNY Oswego's website. According to the Oswego State Lakers official twitter feed, the game will be played at 3PM on Thursday.

Oswego, located on the eastern border of Lake Ontario, has been slammed by blizzard like conditions all day and the snow will continue through the evening. Earlier today, Oswego cancelled afternoon classes but said the hockey game would be on. Later, New York Governor Andrew Cuomo declared  a State of Emergency for all of western New York, including Oswego County.

According to The Oswegonian (Oswego's student newspaper), Bowdoin's team bus knocked into Canale's Italian Restaurant in Oswego this afternoon, though thankfully no one was hurt. Other chatter on the twittersphere also clarifies further  that no one was on the bus when it slide into the dining establishment. We can definitively say that the bus incident had nothing to do with the cancellation of the game.

We will update the situation with more info as it becomes available.
