BLOOMSBURG – Samantha Mazzie had six goals and four assists and Bloomsburg pulled away from East Stroudsburg University in the final 10 minutes for a 19-15 win in the quarterfinals of the PSAC lacrosse playoffs on Tuesday afternoon.

Bloomsburg (13-5) denied ESU (11-7) its school record-setting 12th win of the season in a hard-fought contest that featured four lead changes and seven ties. The Huskies, who posted 13-5 wins in the first two meetings this season, advance to play Lock Haven in the semifinals on Friday at West Chester.

The Warriors took a 15-14 lead with 12:43 remaining before Mazzie tied the game a minute later and her sister Tia Mazzie (four goals) scored the go-ahead goal with just under 10 minutes left.

Freshman Ali Green had a career-high three goals and three assists and junior Michelle Mangiaruga scored four goals, giving her 102 in her career at ESU. Green entered the game with 10 goals and six assists and started all 18 games this season.

Juniors Jamie Wesztergom (three goals, two assists), Molly O'Hara (two goals, two assists) and Christine Bradley (two goals) also contributed to the Warriors attack which finishes the season with a school record 232 goals. O'Hara's 56 goals this season are tied for the second most in school history.

The Warriors were playing in the PSAC playoffs for the second time in three years and the sixth time in program history, and were looking for their first postseason win since 1986.

Tuesday's game was still historic, as both teams scored at least 15 goals for just the third time in school history, a stretch of 547 games over 48 seasons.

ESU built leads of 7-4 and 10-7 in the first half before the Huskies scored twice in the final minute to pull within 10-9, and added three goals in the first 1:53 of the second half to go ahead 12-10.

Green scored her third goal of the game for her first career hat trick to end Bloomsburg's 5-0 run that spanned the half. Samantha King scored for Bloomsburg, Mangiaurga answered for the Warriors and Tia Mazzie's third goal, assisted by her sister, maintained the Huskies' two-goal advantage at 14-12.

ESU took its final lead of the game after a three-goal spurt midway through the second half. Sophomore Laura Riegel netted her only goal, assisted by O'Hara, with 16:12 left, and Mangiaurga tied the game a half-minute later. Wesztergom put the Warriors ahead with a beautiful move for a 15-14 advantage before Samantha Mazzie tied it and Tia Mazzie gave Bloomsburg the lead for good at the 9:39 mark.

ESU wraps up one of the top seasons in school history with 11 wins, tied with the 2000 and 2008 clubs for the school record.

O'Hara's 56 goals give her 122 for her career, eighth all-time and just 18 goals away from the second spot in ESU's record book. Two-time All-American Kristin Restivo holds the school record with 189 career goals.

O'Hara, Mangiaruga (40 goals, 17 assists) and Bradley (28 goals, 21 assists) all went over the 100-point mark for their careers and O'Hara and Mangiaruga reached the 100-goal plateau. They are the 13th and 14th players with 100 goals and the sixth set of teammates. Bradley enters her senior year with 76 goals and 48 assists.
