MANSFIELD – Freshmen Frank Fezza and Mike Pereira and sophomore Greg Laraia all placed in the top 25 to earn All-Region honors and Fezza had the third-highest finish by an East Stroudsburg University freshman in school history at the NCAA Division II Cross Country Atlantic Regional, contested at Mansfield University's Lamb's Creek course on Saturday.

The Warriors' men's team finished fourth, its top performance since 1995 and the third-best all-time, while the women were 12th to move up five spots from last year's showing in the region.
