The Bullets (11-3-2, 5-2-1 CC), who were ranked in the first NCAA regional poll, have won six of their last seven games and closed out the regular season unbeaten at home. Last week, Gettysburg blanked Centennial Conference (CC) opponent McDaniel College 1-0 on the road and defeated CC foe Haverford College 3-1 on Clark Field.
The NCAA ranked eight teams in its Region V poll, with Messiah University earning the No. 1 spot. Johns Hopkins University was ranked second and was followed by Washington College (Md.) (No. 3), Swarthmore College (No. 4), Gettysburg, Franklin & Marshall College (No. 6), Alvernia University (No. 7), and Lebanon Valley College (No. 8).
Gettysburg has been red-hot on the offensive end this season, ranking first in the CC in goals (40), assists (37), and points (117).
The Bullets were also ranked fifth in the United Soccer Coaches Division III Region V poll.
Gettysburg plays its final regular-season game at Muhlenberg College on Saturday at 7 p.m.
