Gettysburg plays host to Haverford on Saturday at Bream Gym in a rematch of the 2008 Conference final, won by the Fords in four sets.  Haverford has won five of the last six meetings, including three straight in Centennial playoff matches.

Haverford seniors Rebecca and Rachel Salvo (La Canada, CA / Flintridge Sacred Heart) have combined for 2,631 kills in their career, making them the fourth-most prolific duo in Conference history.

3,113 – Jessica Cortese (1,605) and Nicole Barr (1,508), Gettysburg, 2001-04
3,091 - Jen Constantino (1,685) and Jelyn Meyer (1,406), Haverford, 2000-03
2,664 - Julie Simpson (1,415) and Stacy Dunchick (1,249), Franklin & Marshall, 1996-99
2,631 – Rebecca Salvo (1,386) and Rachel Salvo (1,245), Haverford, 2006-09

Franklin & Marshall improved to 9-2 with a pair of 3-0 sweeps of Ursinus and Scranton.  It is the best start for a Diplomat squad since the 2005 team opened the year at 10-2.  Junior Nicole Morano (Tenafly, NJ / Tenafly) leads the Conference in hitting percentage (.402) and blocks (1.27).

Swarthmore's Genny Pezzola (Oakland, CA / St. Mary's College HS) leads the Centennial in kills per set (3.69) and points per set (4.47).
