Actually Gettysburg wasn't picked at all Pipe Creek was the intended stopping point. Gettysburg just happens to be where Cavalry brigades under John Buford took a defensive action against Confederate Infantry under Henry Heth and Joseph R Davis from the west. while Forces under Jubal Early and John B. Gordon attacked from The North.
