No. 2 Gettysburg Wins Wild 2010 Opener
Bullets top visiting Mary Washington 19-9, Nina Emala nets five goals

GETTYSBURG, Pa. – Second-ranked Gettysburg College and visiting University of Mary Washington filled the stat sheet on a cold and windy Thursday (February 25) at Clark Field with the host Bullets earning a 19-9 victory to open the 2010 women’s lacrosse season.Gettysburg (1-0) and Mary Washington (0-1) combined for 60 shots, 62 ground balls, 55 clear attempts, 50 fouls, and 65 turnovers in just 60 minutes of action. Eight different Bullets found the back of the net with seniors Nina Emala (Baltimore, Md./Bryn Mawr School) and Lexie Hearn (Old Greenwich, Conn./Greenwich) tying personal marks with five and four goals, respectively.
Gettysburg controlled 17 of 30 draw controls and was efficient on clears, converting 19-of-25. Mary Washington struggled to clear the ball up the field because of the Bullets’ constant pressure in the midfield and finished with just 11 successful clears in 30 attempts. The host’s pressing defense also forced the Eagles into 34 turnovers.
