For the first time, Gettysburg will open the season on a Thursday night, traveling to Juniata on Sept. 3 for a 7 p.m. game. This will mark the fourth straight season that the Bullets and Eagles have been the season-opening matchup.<br />
<br />
Week Two will be back-to-back night games with the home opener. Gettysburg welcomes a new opponent Shirk Field at Musselman Stadium – Washington and Lee for a 6 p.m. kickoff on Saturday, Sept. 12. The Bullets and Generals have not squared off on the gridiron since 1981.<br />

<br />
After the bye week, Centennial Conference (CC) play opens with the Lincoln Trophy Game against Franklin & Marshall. That will be a 1 p.m. kickoff in Lancaster on Oct. 3.<br />
<br />
Dickinson travels to Gettysburg a week later for a second-straight trophy game and the battle for the Little Brown Bucket. The Bullets and Red Devils kickoff at 1 p.m. on Oct. 10.<br />
<br />
Homecoming is slated for Oct. 17 with a home game against Carnegie Mellon at 1 p.m.<br />
<br />
The third and final night game is in Baltimore on Friday, Oct. 23. Kickoff at Johns Hopkins will be 6 p.m.<br />
<br />
Gettysburg then hosts Ursinus (Oct. 31) and McDaniel (Nov. 14) around a road trip to Muhlenberg (Nov. 7) over the last three weeks of the regular season. All three games begin at 1 p.m. The game with the Bears is also Family Weekend. The trip to Allentown is the third and final trophy game as the teams battle for the Old Tin Cup.

Two more Daly markers, including a free-position tally, in just 29 seconds extended the lead to 5-0 with 4:09 remaining in the opening stanza. Alexis Reinard got MIT on the board nearly a minute later to make it a 5-1 game after one.<br />
• Passarello completed her hat trick with two goals in the first 6:12 of the second quarter to extend the lead to 7-1. Free-position goals from Annica Lam and Reinard nearly three minutes apart closed the deficit to 7-3 at the intermission.<br />
• Sarah Scollin (Orefield, Pa./Springside Chestnut Hill Academy) stretched the lead to 8-3 just 69 seconds into the third. Passarello finished a Riley d'Entremont (Radnor, Pa./Bryn Mawr) feed to extend the advantage to six with 3:38 on the clock before Lam and Nina Petulla each found the back of the net in the final 2:04 of the quarter to close the deficit to 9-5 entering the final period.<br />
• Ashley Thomas converted an advantage goal with 12:28 on the clock to make it 9-6 before a Nina Petulla tally closed the margin to two with 10:50 showing. Grace Battle (Lynchburg, Va./Virginia Episcopal School) halted the 4-0 run, scoring with the advantage just over a minute later. Thomas needed just 80 seconds to respond with another advantage goal to return the margin to two. The back-and-forth continued with a Daly-to-Nina Marra (Ridgewood, N.J./Ridgewood) goal with 7:58 on the clock. However, goals from Passarello and d'Entremont 18 seconds apart extended the lead to 13-8 with 5:01 to play and thwarted the comeback attempt. Jillian Butler set the final score with an advantage goal at the 3:16 mark.<br />

<strong><u>THE SKINNY STORY</u></strong><br />
Gettysburg, ranked 13th in the latest IWLCA Div. III coaches' poll, jumped out to a 12-0 first-quarter lead to defeat Husson 26-4 in the first round of the 2026 NCAA Div. III women's lacrosse championship tournament at MIT.<br />
<br />
<strong><u>THE LEADERS</u></strong><br />
• Julia Daly (McLean, Va./Langley) highlighted a record-setting day for the Bullets, registering five points the opening frame to give her 361 for her career and pass Jordan Basso '24 as the program's all-time leader. Daly finished the day with four goals and one assist.<br />
• Grace Battle (Lynchburg, Va./Virginia Episcopal School) corralled 18 draw controls for a single-game program and Centennial Conference record. The previous best by a Bullet was Steph Colson, who had 14 in a second-round NCAA game against Westfield State on May 13, 2018. The previous conference mark was 17.<br />
<br />
<strong><u>FOR THE FOES</u></strong><br />
• Kate Boehmcke scored two of the four goals for the Eagles.<br />
<br />
<strong><u>THE REST OF THE STORY</u></strong><br />
• Sarah Scollin (Orefield, Pa./Springside Chestnut Hill Academy) opened the scoring, finding the back of the net just 1:43 into the game. Just over two minutes later Maddie Passrello (West Chester, Pa./Unionville) found a cutting Michaela Kelly (Chatham, N.J./Chatham) for a 2-0 lead. With 8:37 on the clock, Riley Kenrick (Verona, N.J./Verona) finished a solo run, starting a run of six goals in just 3 minutes, 3 seconds. Julia Daly scored three goals during that burst. After a second Kelly tally, Daly found Nina Marra (Ridgewood, N.J./Ridgewood) for the record-tying point with 3:46 showing to open up a 10-0 lead. Marra then hit Katie Westmoreland (Abington, Pa./Mt. St. Joseph Academy) 2:20 later and then found Daly with 51 ticks remaining for the record-breaking point.<br />
• Delaney Nolan (Allentown, N.J./Allentown) opened the second-quarter scoring just 29 seconds in with the first of her career-high four tallies. After Kate Evans (Severna Park, Md./Severna Park) had the assist on Nolan's tally, she found the back of the net for the first two of her career-high five points. Skylar Matusz (Harrison, N.Y./Scarsdale) made it 15-0 before Gracie Gradner converted an advantage goal to break up the shutout with 9:00 on the clock. Riley d'Entremont (Radnor, Pa./Bryn Mawr) connected with Meghan Crane (Montclair, N.J./Montclair) and Nolan for first two of her three assists.  Matusz added a second goal to make it 18-1 at halftime.<br />
• Laela Martinez scored on the opening shot of the second half, 35 seconds into the third quarter. Molly Bryson (Baldwin, Md./Notre Dame Prep) netted her first collegiate goal with 12:09 on the clock before Crane's second of the day got Gettysburg to 20 goals in an NCAA tournament game for the fifth time in program history with 9:01 in the third. Two Kate Boehmcke goals around another Crane marker made it 21-4 after three quarters.<br />
• Two Nolan goals and Crane's career-high fifth keyed the 5-0 fourth quarter for the Bullets. Bryson had two helpers in the final stanza.<br />
<br />
<strong><u>THE INSIDE STORY</u></strong><br />

• The Bullets' 26 goals were the most by a Gettysburg team in the NCAA tournament, surpassing the previous mark of 25 against Adrian in the 2011 first round.<br />
