Erie, Pa- Your Saint Francis Red Flash Water Polo team dominated day two of the Mercyhurst Invite with two crucial victories over the Terriers and Explorers.
 
Highlights
  • In the Saint Francis Brooklyn game, the Red Flash jumped out to an early lead as three different Red Flash players, Kelly Fehr (Erie, Pa/Villa Maria Academy), Marialena Seletopoulou (Glyfada Athens Greece/Yannopoulos School) and Kelsey Gring (Sinking Spring, Pa/Wilson ) all scored to make it 4-2 at the end of the first.
  • Despite a number of Red Flash goals, the Terriers tied it up at 8-8 at the end of the second period.
  • In the third period, the Terriors jumped out to a 12-9 lead and appeared to be in command of the game. Fehr and Seletopoulou scored back-to-back goals to narrow the margin to 12-11 at the third period horn blew.
  • The fourth period belonged to Seletopoulou as she scored all four goals including the clinching shot with 1:07 left to make it 15-13. Saint Francis Brooklyn scored a meaningless goal with two seconds left to cut it to 15-14.
  • Against La Salle, Seletopoulou took over the game as she scored as many goals as La Salle did as a team. Ani Aghakhanian (La Crescenta, Calif/La Valley College) chipped in with three goals as the Red Flash cruised in the third and fourth periods.
