Millersville, Pa. - The Millersville women's lacrosse team led by two with three minutes to go, but visiting East Stroudsburg put together a furious rally, scoring three goals in the final 2:32 to snatch a PSAC East win away from the Marauders, 16-15.

Neither team led by more than three goals at any point during the game and Millersville (1-2, 0-2 PSAC East), which trailed 6-3 early in the first half, had stormed to a 13-10 lead on a Liz Weekley goal with 13:29 left in the game. East Stroudsburg (3-3, 2-0 PSAC East) scored two answered goals in just over one minute to cut the Marauder lead to 13-12.

The two clubs traded goals, and Kelly Kemper's third goal of the game with 3:14 on the clock put Millersville up 15-13. ESU, though, got a free position goal from Morgan Knowles 42 seconds after Kemper's strike. 39 seconds later, Maure Perrymond knotted the game at 15.
