LOCK HAVEN, Pa. – For the second time this season, Ariel Kelsick has been named Pennsylvania State Athletic Conference (PSAC) East Athlete of the Week, announced by the conference on Monday. 

Kelsick went 4-0 on the week as ESU defeated West Chester, 4-3, and Messiah, 5-2, improving to 4-0 in conference and 16-4 overall. 

The junior, paired with Jenna Kastell, picked up ESU's lone doubles win against the Golden Rams with a 6-3 victory. In the second spot in singles play, she tied the dual with a 6-4, 6-1 win over West Chester's Ashleigh Grooms, as ESU would complete the comeback in the final match. 

Kelsick and Kastell had another strong day in doubles play versus Messiah, winning 6-2 to start the day. Now playing in ESU's top singles spot, she defeated Messiah's Kiara Bomboy 6-1, 6-4 to complete the perfect week.

Kelsick and the Warriors will wrap up their regular season this week, first with a matchup against Chestnut Hill at home at 1 p.m. on Tuesday, then a 3 p.m. conference dual on Wednesday at Bloomsburg.
