Wagner & Siena Manage Mercyhurst at Bison Invitational
LEWISBURG, Pa. -
The Mercyhurst College women's water polo team closed out the 2010
Bison Invitational at Bucknell University with a pair of losses to
Wagner College, 10-5, and Siena College, 7-6.
Junior Rachel
Griepsma led the Lakers for the second-straight day,
scoring five goals in each game. She now has 17 goals to start the

Katerberg rounded out the offense with a goal
against Siena.
In the early game against Wagner, Mercyhurst saw a 4-4 game at
halftime turn sour as the Seahawks outscored the Lakers 2-1 in the
third quarter before shutting them out, 4-0, in the final stanza.
Just a few hours later, the Lakers dropped their second one-goal
game of the tournament, as Siena used a three-goal run in the third
quarter to overcome a 4-3 deficit and hand MC its fourth loss of
the season.
Sophomore Hope
Rozelle suffered both losses with nine saves against
Wagner and 10 saves against Siena.
Mercyhurst returns to action in three weeks at the 2010 Siena
