Freshman Jess Frantz scored all three IUP goals to lead the Crimson Hawk field hockey team to a 3-0 victory over host East Stroudsburg in their first PSAC game of the 2007 season.
Frantz (pictured) entered the game with one goal in the first four contests this season but matched that total when she scored off an assist by Liz Martini with 5:25 remaining in the first half. Frantz added two more goals in the second half, scoring with 10:46 gone after the break and again with 13:28 left in the game. Sylvia Guerrieri and Wendy Strohl assisted on the two second half tallies. Lydia Dolly notched her fourth shutout of the season, making five saves. Carolyn Kisling stopped 10 shots for East Stroudsburg. IUP stays on the road Saturday for a game at Mansfield beginning at noon. The Crimson Hawks return home on Tuesday for a 4 p.m. showdown against defending national champion Bloomsburg. IUP will be looking for a measure of revenge against the Huskies, who defeated the Crimson Hawks in the NCAA national semifinals last November.
