MANSFIELD – Mansfield goalie Alana Krieger recorded nine saves but East Stroudsburg's Kerri McClay slipped one ball past her to record a 1-0 win in a PSAC East contest Saturday afternoon.

Mansfield carried play early with freshman Danielle Lentz, senior Jessica Kerwin and junior Sara Weaver each getting off a shot in the first six minutes of the game.
