Field Hockey Shuts Out Gettysburg 3-0 in Regular Season Finale

GETTYSBURG, Pa. – The Ursinus Field Hockey team locked up a home Centennial Conference Tournament first round game by defeating Gettysburg 3-0 on Friday afternoon in their regular season finale.
 
 
With the win, the Bears improved to 9-8 overall and to 6-4 in Centennial Conference action while clinching the No. 4 seed. The Bears win also locked in their first round opponent which will be Washington College as the No. 5 seed. Meanwhile, the Bullets conclude their 2022 season with a 3-14 overall record and a 1-9 mark in Centennial action.
 
 
 
Ursinus went on the attack early and got on the board in the fourth minute to go up 1-0 when senior Addie Plummer tipped in a pass from sophomore Mary Lauren Franz for her first goal of the season. The Bears had a chance to extend their lead with 22 seconds left in the first quarter when they were awarded a penalty stroke, but first-year Lauren Breisch had her shot attempt saved. The second quarter saw the teams trade multiple chances, but Ursinus held its 1-0 lead into halftime.
 
 
 
Gettysburg had their biggest offensive push of the game in the 38th minute when they got three shots on the Bears net in a 13 second span, but senior goalkeeper Jordan Ulsh stood up to the task and turned away all three shots. A minute later, senior Jordan Moore extended the Bears lead to 2-0 with her 16th goal of the season after knocking in a pass from the right side from Franz. Sophomore Amanda Groeling then made it a 3-0 game in the 43rd minute after collecting a rebound from a saved shot from junior Ellie Bruggeman. In the fourth quarter, the Bears were unable to further extend their lead but held the Bullets without a shot by controlling play in their attacking end.
 
 
 
Each team tallied 11 shots in the contest and the Bears held a 18-9 edge in shots and a 15-6 advantage in shots on goal. Ursinus also held a 9-6 advantage in penalty corners after earning seven of them in the second half.
