Merrimack College and Stonehill College will compete in the first round of the NCAA Division 2 field hockey tournament on Saturday, November 16. The winner will advance to the semifinals against LIU Post, which won the Northeast-10 Conference championship yesterday against the Skyhawks.
Both squads have faced off against each other twice this season with Stonehill winning the first match in September, while Merrimack won the second meeting in October.
