WESTMINSTER, Md.  – Senior Justin Davidov(Ossining, N.Y./Ossining) scored a pair of rushing touchdowns in the fourth quarter to force a tie at the end of regulation between Gettysburg College and McDaniel College, but the Green Terror converted a touchdown on the opening possession of overtime and held the Bullets without a score to clinch a 27-20 victory at Gill Stadium Saturday afternoon.

Carmel) for three passes totaling 58 yards before rushing the final 16 yards for a touchdown.
 
On the Bullets' next drive, senior Ryan Thompson (Oakland, N.J./Indian Hills) hauled in a 33-yard pass from Davidov and freshman Cole Menas (Keedysville, Md./Saint James) reeled in three consecutive passes totaling 26 yards to put the team on the doorstep of the end zone. Davidov did the rest with his legs, finding an opening inside the left pylon for the tying touchdown.
