PANAMA CITY, Fla. - Antonia Giannopoulos scored six goals, including five in the

first half, to carry East Stroudsburg University to a 14-9 women's lacrosse victory over

The Warriors trailed, 4-1, in early action, but rallied behind the play of Giannapoulos,

a sophomore transfer from the University of Maryland. They scored ten of the last 11 goals

in the first half to take a 10-5 halftime lead.

Kim Niles, Shelly Kuhlberg and Charlie Hicks-Little each added two goals for ESU

while Jenna Feinblum had a pair of assists. Laura Pfeiffenberger scored three times for

Wesleyan.
