FIVE THINGS YOU NEED TO KNOW

• This will be the first NCAA DIII Tournament meeting between the two programs as the Gulls and Beavers have split 14 regular-season matches, 7-7.
• The Gulls qualified for the NCAA Tournament after claiming the program's eighth Commonwealth Coast Conference (CCC) title, and fourth out of the last five, by taking down Roger Williams by a 3-1 final on Saturday (RECAP).
