FIRST PITCH: Today's non-conference doubleheader marks the 13th and 14th all-time meetings between Gettysburg (9-5) and Mary Washington (11-7) in a series that dates back to 2016. The Bullets lead the all-time series 7-5 and snapped a four-game Eagles winning streak in the series with an 11-0 game-two win last season.

LAST SEASON'S SERIES: One game after stranding five runners in a 4-0 shutout loss to Mary Washington, Gettysburg turned the tables and pounded out 12 hits and scored five times in the top of the first en route to an 11-0, five-inning win in game two. Lauren O'Leary led the Bullets with three hits in the doubleheader, adding two RBIs and two runs scored. Emma Schieda was 2-for-2 with a walk in the opener for the Eagles. (Full Recap) (Game 1 Box) (Game 2 Box)

Kandice Schlabach led the Falcons with four hits on the afternoon. (Full Recap) (Game 1 Box Score) (Game 2 Box Score)

GAME TWO IS A GOOD TIME FOR FIRSTS: A pair of Bullets recorded collegiate first in the second game at Messiah on Thursday. Morgan DeFreitas blasted her first collegiate home run in the 11-5 victory. She made that long ball really count, taking a 2-2 pitch with the bases loaded to straightaway center field to make her first homer a grand slam and give her team a 10-0 lead in the fourth inning. Carlie Goldstein had her first collegiate three-hit outing in the contest as well. Two of her three knocks went for extra-base hits with a second-inning double and third-inning triple. She also drove in three runs in the game.

LAST TIME OUT: Mary Washington swept its doubleheader with Randolph on Wednesday in Fredericksburg, winning the opener 9-6 and game two, 8-4. (Full Recap) (Game 1 Box Score) (Game 2 Box Score)
