Fusco breaks program points record; No. 20 Ville falls at No. 15 East Stroudsburg

East Stroudsburg, Pa. -- Senior Sabrina Fusco set the new all-time points record in program history after scoring her 226th point at No. 15 East Stroudsburg Friday afternoon. However, East Stroudsburg scored seven goals in the second half to win 11-10 and snap No. 20 Millersville's five-game winning streak.

Fusco broke Millersville Hall of Fame Class of '17 member, Elizabeth Weekley's record in the opening 22 minutes of the game. Fusco notched two goals in the opening 13 minutes of play to tie the record. With 8:18 remaining in the first half, Fusco fed freshman Genevieve Speights who placed her shot past the goalie and into the net.

It was the second time in three weeks that Fusco set a new Millersville record. She previously broke the all-time goal scoring record back on March 6 against West Virginia Wesleyan. Fusco now sits at 227 all-time points with 187 goals and 46 assists in the black and gold. 

The Marauders held a 10-6 lead with 12:46 remaining in the second half following Speights' second goal of the game. The Warriors cut the lead to 10-7 with 9:09 left on the clock and sparked a five-goal scoring run that ended with 6:33 remaining in the game. Sophomore Sarah Leverentz and junior Erin Fagan fired shots on goal in the waning minutes of the game, but East Stroudsburg's goalkeeper Michelle Dyck prevented the late equalizer.

East Stroudsburg out-shot Millersville 40-23 and placed 30 shots on goal compared to Millersville's 17. Redshirt junior goalkeeper Shannon Davis stood up to the offensive flurry and saved 19 shots including four free-position shots.

The Warriors controlled the midfield in the second half as they won 12 of their 18 draw controls to propel their comeback. However, East Stroudsburg still struggled to maintain possession. Senior Nathalie Sell and junior Natalie Sukanick led the Marauders with two caused turnovers each while East Stroudsburg turned the ball over 28 total times in the game.

Senior Kristen Butzner led the Marauders with three goals and assisted two more against the Warriors. Butzner now sits two short of Abby Mack's single-season record of 32 assists.

Millersville falls to 5-1 on the season and 1-1 in the Pennsylvania State Athletic Conference. The Marauders return to Millersville to host PSAC rival Bloomsburg on Sunday, March 25 at 3:30 p.m.
