Lakewood, N.J.- Five different Lions scored Saturday, including a game-high nine from Melissa Williams, as the Georgian Court University women's lacrosse squad halted its season-opening eight-game slide in dynamic fashion, dismissing reigning Central Atlantic Collegiate Conference (CACC) champion, Holy Family University, by a mighty score of 21-6.

Williams established a new personal single-game high with her nine tallies and is the most points (13) the senior has recorded in a single contest since collecting 17 (seven goals, 10 assists) in an 18-6 win over Post University a year ago (3/31/15).

Senior Callie Brown enjoyed a solid showing of her own with five goals and two helpers. Xena Valenzuela authored a hat trick while Kayanna Chandler and Samantha Fernandez each registered a pair of goals and an assist each.

Erin Harmer (Sr.-Philadelphia, Pa.) topped Holy Family with her three goals while Paige Settar (Sr.-Mullica Hill, N.J.) scored a goal and dished two assists for the Tigers.

Stephanie Lehner earned earned her first victory of the campaign in net for GCU with six saves over her 50:12 of action. Grace Deckert (Sr.-Jarrettsville, Md.) was tagged with the HFU loss (eight saves, 60:00).
