Lock Haven, Pa. - Lock Haven scored the final three goals of the game, but it was unable to complete the comeback and the Millersville University women's lacrosse team held on for its second-straight Pennsylvania State Athletic Conference (PSAC) road win. It marks the Marauders' first victory at Lock Haven, who appeared in the NCAA Championship game just four seasons ago, in the last 11 seasons.

Millersville (5-3, 3-1 PSAC) has won four of its last five and is off to its best start in conference play since 2001, while the Bald Eagles (3-5, 1-2 PSAC) fall to 2-2 at home after going 10-0 at home last season.

MATCH HIGHLIGHTS
• The Marauders struck early and often, scoring six of the first seven goals and outscoring Lock Haven 9-4 in the first half. Erin Fagan paced the offense in the half, having already recorded a hat trick by halftime.
• The two teams exchanged goals back-and-forth to start the second half, with Millersville holding a 12-6 lead with 12:07 remaining in the game. Two-consecutive Bald Eagles goals in the span of 20 seconds, with Braxtin Reddinger scoring one and assisting the other, cut the Marauder lead to four with 3:52 left on the clock.
• Lock Haven earned a free position attempt and fired off two other shots in the final three minutes, but the free position shot went wide and Shannon Davis stopped the other two shots to preserve the Millersville lead. The Bald Eagles scored one final goal with 24 seconds left in the game, but it was too little too late.

COACH CINDY WILSON QUOTES
• "We came out strong and executed the game plan well."
• "Our defense played really well today. Our slides were on, and we protected the 8m well. The defensive unit did a great job of staying composed even when their attack started to push back."
• "We had a variety of looks on offense and flowed really well together. The unit is starting to feed off of each other and really trusts one another, which allowed us to spread out the scoring."
• "We are starting to work well together and are executing our game plans well. Being on the same page and working for one another allows us to be strong on the field."
