SALISBURY, MARYLAND — Salisbury's field hockey team will host Penn State Harrisburg at 3 p.m. Wednesday, Nov. 11, at Sea Gull Stadium in the first round of the NCAA Division III tournament, the university said after Sunday night's selection show.

The sixth-ranked Sea Gulls are 15-3 and coming off their second straight State University of New York Athletic Conference title. The bid is the program's 41st NCAA tournament appearance and 32nd in a row, in a 28-team field. The university said ticket information for Wednesday's game will be announced in the coming days.

A first-round win sends Salisbury to fourth-ranked Christopher Newport in Newport News, Virginia, which hosts the second round Nov. 14 and the third round Nov. 15. The last four teams meet Nov. 20 and 22 at William Smith College in Geneva, New York, for the semifinals and championship game. All games stream on NCAA.com.

Salisbury won national titles in 1986, 2003, 2004, 2005 and 2009 and is chasing a sixth. The roster lists freshman forward Juliana Stepp of Easton, with Saints Peter & Paul as her high school.
