The Bears (11-2, 7-0 CC) face one of their last remaining CC challenges when they visit Chestertown to play the Shorewomen (11-2, 4-2 CC). Ursinus, ranked sixth nationally, has three players with double digits in goals - Megan Keenan (15), Danielle Stong (11) and Devin Brakel (10). Washington College, who received votes in the national poll this week, counters with Elizabeth Davis (11), while Jenn Miller has eight tallies. WAC keeper Sadie Robertson leads the Centennial in goals-against average (0.89) and will face an Ursinus squad that is fourth in Division III in goals per game (5.23). The Bears are 14-1 all-time against the Shorewomen, but suffered a 3-2 overtime loss to Washington in its last trip to the Eastern Shore in 2012.

Catherine Perlmutter, Dickinson

Field Hockey: Johns Hopkins at Dickinson, 3:00
It has all the trappings of a playoff game when the Blue Jays (6-7, 3-3 CC) visit Carlisle to take on the Red Devils (10-4, 4-3 CC). Dickinson is currently sixth in the standings, while Hopkins is seventh and neither team can realistically survive another defeat. Red Devil soph Catherine Perlmutter is one of the top goal scorers in the CC (13) while junior Alyssa Stillwell has eight tallies to her credit. Hop depends on its defense and junior goalkeeper Zoey Atabek who leads the Centennial in save percentage (.825). This is the 38th meeting between the schools with JHU holding a 19-16-2 all-time edge. The Devils have captured the last two contests, including a 4-3 OT decision at home in 2012.

Sarah Benett, Johns Hopkins

Women's Soccer: Dickinson at Johns Hopkins, 7:00
The sixth-ranked Blue Jays (12-2, 6-0 CC) face one of their biggest Centennial challenges of the season when they host the Red Devils (11-2-1, 5-1-1 CC).

Joanne Josephson, Muhlenberg

Volleyball: Muhlenberg at Swarthmore, 7:00
First place in the Conference is on the line tonight at Tarble Pavilion as the Garnet (19-5, 7-0 CC) entertain the Mules (22-3, 6-1 CC). A Swat win puts the hosts one step closer to the top seed for the upcoming playoffs. A Mule victory could create a three-way tie for the top spot with a week and a half to go in the regular season. Garnet freshman Sarah Wallace leads the Centennial in kills (3.79 per set) and is second in points (4.3). 'Berg junior Katherine Boll is third in hitting percentage (.351), while junior Joanne Josephson is fifth (.341). Senior Nikki Dickson is also a valuable weapon for the Mules, as she leads the CC in services aces (0.68). It is the 24th meeting between the schools since 1993. Muhlenberg swept the Garnet a year ago, ending a five-match Swat win streak, to extend its all-time lead in CC play to 13-10.

Laura Bergin, Gettysburg

Volleyball: Gettysburg at McDaniel, 7:00
The Bullets (17-8, 4-2 CC) travel down Route 97 to take on the Green Terror (18-8, 3-4 CC) in a critical match for both teams. Gettysburg is tied with Hopkins for fourth place and is still in the hunt for either a first-round bye or home playoff game. McDaniel is on the brink of elimination and most likely will miss the playoffs with another loss. Bullet soph Laura Bergin is sixth in the CC in kills (3.17), while McDaniel junior Kloe Martin is right behind her (2.92). It is the 71st meeting between the long-time rivals. Gettysburg has won six straight in the series to close the overall deficit to 41-29. The Terror's last win was a five-set win at Gill in 2007.
