Cross Country
It's the last big weekend prior to the Centennial championships in
two weeks at Haverford. Meets include the Seven Sisters
championship and Invitationals at Gettysburg, Princeton and
UW-Oshkosh.
Field Hockey: Muhlenberg at Franklin & Marshall,
12:00
The Mules (9-2, 5-1 CC) and the Diplomats (12-1, 5-1 CC) meet for
the 23rd time in a series that dates to 1989. F&M holds a
15-6-1 advantage and has a five-game win streak vs. 'Berg.
Muhlenberg has not won in Lancaster since a 2-0 triumph in 2006.
Both teams need a victory to keep pace with first-place Ursinus.
The Diplomats' Maria Guarisco (pictured) leads the
Centennial with 16 goals, scoring in 11 of 13 games this season.
Muhlenberg keeper Sierra Lenker is third in the CC
in goals-against average (1.01) and fourth in save percentage

Field Hockey: Dickinson at Washington College,
1:00
The Red Devils (10-3, 4-2 CC) and the Shorewomen (10-2, 3-2 CC)
meet for the 26th time since 1990 with Washington College looking
to extend its 14-11 series lead. Dickinson captured last year's
meeting in Carlisle but has come up short in its last nine trips to
Chestertown since a 2-1 win in 1995. Both teams need a victory in
their quest for a playoff spot and a possible first-round bye.
Catherine Perlmutter leads the Red and White in
scoring (12-5-29), while Elizabeth Davis tops the
WAC scoring chart (11-8-30). But the difference could come down to
the keepers - Dickinson's Emily Fuss leads the
Centennial in save percentage (.810) and Washington's Sadie
Robertson (pictured) heads the goals-against list
(0.89).

Volleyball: Haverford at Johns Hopkins,
1:00
It is the 31st meeting between the Fords (16-7, 6-0 CC) and the
Blue Jays (12-10, 3-2 CC) in a series that dates to 1987. Hopkins
holds a 19-11 advantage and the teams have split the last two
matches. Haverford won three straight matches at Goldfarb Gym from
2006-10 but JHU swept a pair of matches at home in 2011. The Jays
will have to find a way to slow down Meg O'Day and
Keri Godbe (pictured) who have combined for 608
kills this season for the Fords. Liz Wuerstle
leads Hop in kills (2.62) and service aces (0.56) per set.

1907. Gettysburg (3-2, 3-1 CC) holds a 43-34-1 advantage but
Muhlenberg (4-1, 3-1 CC) has won six of the last eight games. The
Mules have an eight-game home win streak against the Bullets since
a 27-9 loss in Allentown in 1996. Gettysburg is second in the
Conference in total offense, averaging 452.4 yards per game, while

4:00
The Green Terror (8-2-3, 2-1-2 CC) travels to take on the Garnet
(8-4, 3-3 CC) for the 28th time in a series that dates to 1987.
McDaniel holds a 16-11 series advantage and ended a seven-game
Swarthmore win streak with a 2-1 overtime triumph last season in
Westminster. The Green and Gold, undefeated in three extra-times
games against the Garnet, has not won at Clothier Field since 2004
(1-0, OT). Mele Johnson leads Swat with eight
goals, while Emma Sindelar, the program's career
leader in goals, assists and points, has five. Nicole
Hill (pictured) leads the Terror with 5-7-17.

6:00
It is the 68th meeting between the Blue Jays (8-3-2, 2-2-1 CC) and
the Diplomats (12-0-1, 5-0 CC) in a series that began in 1947.
Hopkins holds a 40-20-7 advantage and is 3-1-3 since F&M's last
home win in 2007 (2-1). In fact, the 2007 and 2010 victories are
the Blue and White's lone triumphs against JHU since 1994. Defense
may be the name of this game, as F&M's Trevor
Britton leads the Centennial in save percentage (.844) and
goals-against average (0.38), while Hopkins' Matt
Paris (pictured) is second in save% (.841) and third in
GAA (0.78).

Field (11-0-1) since a 4-1 loss in 1969. Haverford's Brady
