Gettysburg re-asserted itself atop the Centennial Conference in what was absolutely one of the best games of the 2021 DIII season, beating Ursinus 10-9 in overtime.
At the time of the shutdown in 2020 Ursinus was 7-0, had beaten two ranked opponents (Stevenson & CNU), and was oozing with confidence. Their next scheduled game was a home game against the Bullets. It never happened.
In 2019 Ursinus had a similar start; it was 7-0 and had beaten three ranked opponents (Stevenson, Cortland, & CNU) before falling to Gettysburg. In the 2019 Centennial playoffs, Ursinus strung together a comeback win against F&M in the semis and then a shock to Gettysburg in the championship. Understanding the history of these two teams since the arrival of Coach Mercadante is necessary to comprehend the importance of this most recent edition of the budding Gettysburg vs. Ursinus rivalry.
