BRYN ATHYN, Pa. – The Bryn Athyn College women's lacrosse team will look for its third consecutive victory when the Lions play host to Keystone College in a Colonial States Athletic Conference (CSAC) Wednesday afternoon.

  1. Tina Tu was selected as the CSAC defensive player of the week after a five caused turnover performance against Cedar Crest. She is the fourth player in Bryn Athyn history to earn a conference's defensive player of the week award. Of the now four players to be a defensive player of the week, three are field players. Tu leads the CSAC in ground balls (16) and ground balls per game (5.33), second in caused turnovers per game (3.00), and third in caused turnovers (9). In Division III, Tu ranks 23rd in ground balls per game and 27th in caused turnovers per game.
  2. Bryn Athyn recorded the third shutout in program history against Cedar Crest last Saturday. The last time Bryn Athyn blanked an opponent was last season when the Lions shutout Mount Saint Vincent 10-0 on March 10, 2018. Last Saturday's shutout was the first one to take place away from home and the margin of victory was the largest in program history.
  3. The Lions are the top defensive team in the CSAC and one of the best defenses in Division III. Bryn Athyn leads the CSAC in ground balls per game (28.33), caused turnovers per game (15.33), and goals against average (5.67). In Division III, the Lions rank 10th in goals against average, 14th in caused turnovers per game, and 19th in ground balls per game. Tu and Reed are third in the CSAC with 3.00 caused turnovers per game, while Payton Gormley is fifth with 2.33, and Chantal Farmer sits 10th with 1.67.
  4. After her six-point performance against Cedar Crest, Bri Lennox is sitting second in the CSAC with 20 points, 15 goals, and 5 assists. Jess Phillipp vaulted up to seventh in the league in points with 9 thanks to her career-high seven points at Cedar Crest.
  5. Wednesday is the first-ever meeting between the Lions and Giants.
