EAST STROUDSBURG – Junior Annabelle Charlton had 17 kills, 18 assists and 18 digs, freshman outside hitter Sydney Galoozis and 16 kills and East Stroudsburg University rallied from a pair of one-set deficits to earn a 3-2 win over Philadelphia University in non-conference women's volleyball on Wednesday night at Koehler Fieldhouse.

Senior Allye Preziosi added eight kills, 24 assists, 13 digs and five aces, sophomore Maddie Hutchison had 27 digs and redshirt sophomore Haley Mork had 19 digs for the Warriors (5-3), who have won both of their five-set matches this season.

ESU won by set scores of 18-25, 25-21, 19-25, 25-15 and 15-13. After ESU led 13-10 in the fifth, the Rams (2-3) won the next three points, but Galoozis had her 16th kill and freshman middle blocker Hanna Bergen put away the final point for the Warriors.

Galoozis had five kills in the fifth set, carrying the Warriors early, before Charlton had three in a key stretch. ESU had 11 kills and hit .125 in the final set, while Philadelphia U had four kills and hit .038.

The Warriors had 96 digs in the match with Hutchison (27), Mork (19), Charlton (18), Preziosi (13) and junior Erin Rothrock (9) the major contributors. Junior middle blocker Elizabeth Higley had five block assists.

Charlton had her third triple-double of the season and seventh of her career for ESU and hit a team-best .238 among the major attackers. Her 17 kills were one off her career-high she had in a five-set win over Mercy to open the season.

Galoozis had a season and career-high with 16 kills, the fifth time in eight matches she has hit double figures.

Chelsea Hughes led Philadelphia U with 13 kills, Morgan McCarthy had 32 digs and Allyson Schillinger had 18 assists.
