Box Score

 Delauney scored three goals and added three assists on the day, collecting the 100th point of her collegiate career with a first-half, free-position goal. She finished with 105 career points, 25 shy of the program’s all-time top 10.

 Katie Lowe (Setauket, NY/Ward Melville) scored twice and added one assist for the Bullets (3-0), who were playing on the road for the first time in 2005. Quinn Dougherty (Wading River, NY/Shoreham-Wading River) sealed the win with two goals in the game’s final four minutes.

 Katie Kline, Liz McGough and Caitlin Meseroll netted two goals apiece for the Profs (0-1). Katherine Rowland made 12 saves while facing 34 Gettysburg shots.

 Trailing in the second half for the first time this season, the Bullets rallied with six goals in the game’s final 18 minutes.

 Following goals by Katie Loomis and McGough that staked Rowan to a 6-5 lead, Gettysburg answered with three goals in a span of fewer than three minutes.

 Delauney tied the game at 6, completing her hat trick with an unassisted marker at 42:47. Lowe set up Ellie Shihadeh (Malvern, PA/Conestoga) 43 seconds later for a 7-6 Bullet lead before scoring an unassisted goal to make it 8-6 with 14:25 remaining.

 Maggie Goodman pulled the Profs even with 9:37 left, scoring off a feed from McGough to make it 8-7 and then setting up Meseroli after pulling out of a free-position attempt.

 Less than a minute later, Delauney found a cutting Hagan and the sophomore found the back of the net to put Gettysburg ahead to stay at 9-8 with 8:45 left. Dougherty finished a pass from Delauney for an insurance goal with 3:30 remaining, then sealed the win with another goal in the closing seconds.

 Keyed by the first collegiate goals from freshmen Jamie Giffuni (St. James, NY/Smithtown) and Megan Moore (Chestertown, MD/Gunston Day School), the Bullets jumped to a 5-2 lead.

A crease violation wiped out Gettysburg’s apparent sixth goal, however, and Rowan took advantage of the momentum swing, scoring four straight goals in a 13-minute span across the intermission to forge a 6-5 lead.

Heather Kelley (Berwyn, PA/Conestoga) made eight saves for the Bullets, who were meeting the Profs for the first time since 1987. Hagan and Shihadeh finished with one goal and one assist apiece.
