App State women’s soccer team picked up their first ever win against a Power Five conference opponent after defeating the Maryland Terrapins 2-1 in a close game on Sunday afternoon.

In a non-conference game against a Big Ten opponent, the Mountaineers were focused, physical and ready for the challenge.

Despite falling behind 1-0 in the first half, App State had six more shot attempts than the Terrapins and dominated possession of the ball.

The second half was no different. Six Mountaineers finished with more than two shots on goal, perhaps none bigger than the one by sophomore forward Erin Settle that tied the game with just over 33 minutes remaining in regulation.
