COLLEGEVILLE, Pa. – Junior Gabi Connor (Haddonfield, N.J./Haddonfield Memorial) and sophomore Jordan Basso (Rye, N.Y./Rye) each tossed in five goals as No 6 Gettysburg College (14-3, 9-0 CC) wrapped up a perfect season in the Centennial Conference with a 23-7 victory at Ursinus College (7-10, 2-7 CC) at Patterson Field on Saturday afternoon.
 
Gettysburg posted its first unbeaten regular season in conference play since 2013 and clinched the top spot in the league standings for the 11th time since 2000. The Bullets will host the semifinals and final of the CC Championship at Clark Field on May 7-8.
 
Gettysburg continued its torrid offensive production over the last month of the regular season and put up its fourth 20-goal effort in its last seven outings. Connor kicked off the scoring just over a minute into Saturday's affair, but Ursinus answered back with a goal by Mary Michaud at 11:46. The Bullets ran off the final four goals of the opening quarter, including two more by Connor, to take a 5-1 advantage.
 
The Bears trailed 7-3 at 10:42 in the second quarter when the floodgates opened wide.

Basso got into the action with three goals in the final 4:09 of the first half, including one just before the horn to push the Bullets in front 15-3.
 
Sophomore Regan Rightmire (Downingtown, Pa./Downingtown STEM Academy) tallied two unassisted goals to open the second half. Freshman Lauren O'Connell (Winchester, Mass./Winchester) and senior Maddi Seibel (Newtown, Pa./Pennington School) followed with goals to finish out the run and put Gettysburg in front 19-3.

Three more Bullets lit the lamp in the final minutes with senior Cecily Stabler (Summit, N.J./Summit) scoring on a free-position attempt before dishing to first-year Greta Lacey (Marriottsville, Md./Mount de Sales Academy) to cap the scoring.
 
Gettysburg led in shots (36-22), ground balls (18-12), and draw controls (20-12).
