Vote for Hollis Stahl Today!


GETTYSBURG, Pa. – After months of crunching the numbers to select the top athletes for weekly recognition on our website, the Sports Information staff has decided to let you, the fans, have a voice in picking the top male and female student-athletes from the past year at Gettysburg College. Over the course of the month of June, fans will be able to vote for their favorite student-athletes in polls available on the main page of GettysburgSports.com and on the Gettysburg College Athletics fan page on Facebook.
The popular poll on the athletics website will feature the men’s nominees from June 1 to June 15, while the women will fill the poll for the final two weeks of the month (June 16-30). Both men’s and women’s polls will be available on the athletics Facebook page for the entirety of the month. At the end of June, the votes from both polls will be counted and the male and female student-athletes with the most will be named Athletes of the Year in a press release on our website. There’s no certificate, award, or trophy involved in this process. At most, the winners will receive campus bragging rights and the knowledge that their efforts on their respective playing venues were acknowledged and admired by the campus community. With a score of worthy candidates to consider, the Sports Information staff had to make some stipulations on who to include on the final ballots.
Our finalists had to meet at least one of two conditions: 1.) All-Centennial Conference First Team; and 2). School record breaker. Using those guidelines, we came up with a list of eight men and seven women. We also didn’t want to split votes between a sport, so we combined two of the male candidates into one super-charged nominee. Voting will end on June 30th so make sure you visit GettysburgSports.com and Facebook to make your voice heard!

Last Week's Action....

On Saturday we bounced back with a great game against Swarthmore. We got in the scoring groove early and continued to create scoring opportunities all day. Marnie Commins broke out of her shell with 1 goal, 6 assists, and a huge smile on her face. Defense had another stellar day with both Kristen Krammer and Laura Mac anchoring the unit, neither letting up any goals.

It was quite a battle on Clark Field last Tuesday when Middlebury came to town. Although this game was close in all the statistical categories, Middlebury went on a serious scoring run and We Bullets were struggling to find the back of the net. We learned alot about ourselves on this day and our courage to keep fighting until the end. We pulled within two and had our opportunities but in the end time was not on our side. Our Player of the Game against Middlebury is Defender Becky Lutz. For 60 minutes Becky played with a "refuse to lose" attitude coming up with crucial groundballs and draw controls. Becky anchored a solid defensive effort this day, and a defensive unit that proves to get better each and every game.
