Gettysburg at Franklin & Marshall, 7:00
The Bullets (19-9, 5-3 CC) travel to Lancaster to take on the
Diplomats (15-11, 4-4 CC) in the 54th meeting between the schools
since 1976. Gettysburg holds a 37-16 all-time series lead, but
F&M has won two in a row and four of the last five matches. The
Bullets can secure a playoff berth with a victory, while the
Diplomats need a win to keep their hopes alive. Gettysburg's
Laura Bergin (3.29 kills per set) needs four kills
to reach 300 for the season. F&M senior setter Caroline
Hubbard (pictured) is second in the CC in assists and is
on pace to become just the ninth player in Centennial history to
average 9+ assists per set over a career. These two teams have
played three straight five-set matches and 10 since 1993 with the
Diplomats winning six.
