SU remains at No. 3 in STX/NFHCA poll
GLEN ALLEN, Va. - The Salisbury University field hockey team remained at the same spot in the latest STX/National Field Hockey Coaches Association Division III coaches' poll released Tuesday as the Sea Gulls are still No. 3 in the country.

Salisbury (16-1, 6-0 Capital Athletic Conference) earned a total of 523 points and one first-place vote as SU remains behind No. 1 Bowdoin College (14-0) and No. 2 Lebanon Valley College (19-0), who are both unbeaten. SU only trails LVC by a total of 25 points and six first-place votes.

The Sea Gulls earned the No. 1 seed and a first round bye in the CAC tournament. SU will meet University of Mary Washington in the semifinals on Halloween night (Wednesday) at 5:30 p.m. at Sea Gull Stadium. SU ended its regular season last week with a 3-1 over former CAC member Catholic University of America.

Ursinus College (16-2), the defending national champions, and The College of New Jersey (9-2) round out the top five spots in the rankings. Ursinus moved up to No. 4 after it beat former No. 4 Christopher Newport University, 1-0, last week. CNU moved back to No. 6 in the polls. Ursinus and TCNJ also received one first-place vote. The Captains from CNU are the lone team to defeat SU this season, 2-1 on the road, on September 5. The Gulls have ripped off 15 straight wins since that set back.
