BLOOMSBURG – Heading into the final week of the regular season, the Bloomsburg University field hockey team remains fourth in the 2012 Penn Monto / National Field Hockey Coaches Association (NFHCA) Division II National Coaches Poll released Tuesday afternoon.
 
The Huskies (12-4 overall, 6-2 PSAC East) split their Pennsylvania State Athletic Conference (PSAC) Eastern Division games last week.  It dropped a rare 1-0 overtime decision to Millersville on Oct. 9, but rebounded with a 1-0 overtime victory at East Stroudsburg on Saturday. 
 
Each of Bloomsburg's last three games has gone to overtime including a pivotal 3-2 victory over West Chester.  It has two more games remaining in its regular season as a pair of wins would secure Bloomsburg's 32nd consecutive trip to the PSAC playoffs.
