Box Score

COLLEGEVILLE, Pa. – Senior captain Katie Hagan (Media, Pa./Cardinal O'Hara) posted career highs with five goals and six points, including the game-winning goal, to help No. 4 Gettysburg to a 10-9 win against Ursinus in Centennial Conference (CC) action at E. Frost Snell Field on Saturday afternoon. Hagan, the reigning womenslacrosse.com Division III national player of the week, also matched her career high with six ground balls in helping the Bullets to their sixth straight win.

Hagan was 2-for-2 on free-position attempts to help Gettysburg (12-1, 7-0 CC) to a 4-for-7 mark on the day. Senior attacker Alexandra Ewing (Baltimore, Md./Garrison Forest) also had a free-position goal and a field tally for two goals.

The Bullets out-shot the Bears 36-15 and won 16 of the 21 draw controls, but Ursinus (8-5, 4-2 CC) was kept in the game by junior goalie Allyson Shicora, who made 18 saves. Sophomore midfielder Lisa Clark led the team with three goals and an assist for four points, and junior attacker Kaitlin Glenn added a hat trick.

Gettysburg got the scoring started just 1:38 into the game when junior midfielder Katie Ceglarski (Darien, Conn./Darien) found Hagan for the first of her five goals. It took Ursinus just over three minutes to get its only lead of the game. Clark scored unassisted at 26:43, and sophomore attacker Catie Cameron converted a pass from freshman midfield Liz Cannon 1:33 later for the 2-1 lead.

Ewing saw to it that the Bears' lead was short-lived, however. It took her just 34 seconds to even the ledger with her free-position goal, which was the beginning of a 3-0 Gettysburg run covering 4:04. Ceglarski scored, and Ewing also struck off of Hagan's assist to make it 4-2.

Ursinus scored at the 13:06 mark of the first half, and the teams alternated goals until the break, at which point the Bullets led 6-5.

Just 3:24 after the break, the Bears evened things up at 6-6 with Cameron's goal. A Hagan free-position goal put Gettysburg back in front two minutes later, and junior midfielder Megan Moore (Chestertown, Md./Gunston Day School) made it a two-goal game on an unassisted marker at 20:43. Clark and Hagan then traded goals in a 46-second span to give the visitors a 9-7 advantage with 18:22 to play.

Glenn began to chip away at that lead 1:16 later when she turned a Clark pass into a goal. It took nearly 13 minutes, but Glenn scored again, tying the game at 9-9 with 4:27 left in regulation.

Fittingly, a Hagan goal just 1:03 later was the game's decisive tally.

The Bullets will be back in action on Tuesday when they play host to Muhlenberg in CC action at Clark Field. Game time is set for 7 p.m.
