Weekend Games to Watch

 

Dickinson at Ursinus (Friday, 3:00)
The Red Devils (10-22, 6-6 CC) and the Bears (16-13, 5-5) meet in a crucial doubleheader that was moved up a day to avoid the impending weekend rain in the Mid-Atlantic. The teams are tied for fifth place in the chase for one of the four CC playoff berths and cannot afford another league loss. Allison Pfrommer leads Ursinus in hitting with a .372 average and 19 RBI. Dickinson pitcher Chelsea Homa has struck out 153 hitters in 135 2/3 innings.

Gettysburg at McDaniel (Saturday, 12:00)
It's a showdown for first place in the Conference as the Bullets (18-11, 9-3) drive down Route 97 to take on the Green Terror (18-8, 10-2). Gettysburg is led by the 1-2 combo of Joy Hallfors and Melissa Tighe who are hitting .423 and .419, respectively. McDaniel counters with the league's top pitcher in Caroline Brehm who has fanned 236 batters in 128 1/3 innings to fashion a 14-6 record and a 1.36 ERA. A sweep by either team would secure a playoff bid. It would be the Terror's first trip to the Centennial tournament since 2006.
