2021 was a season for the books for the Maryland Terrapins field hockey program.
On May 27, Prince George’s County removed all capacity and distancing restrictions for indoor and outdoor sporting events. The Terps were ecstatic to welcome fans back to ‘The Plex,’ the Field Hockey and Lacrosse Complex in College Park.
Maryland entered the season with a No. 9 national ranking, loaded with a roster full of upperclassman experience and talented underclassmen. Head coach Missy Meharg brought in a graduate transfer from Princeton, midfielder Julianna Tornetta to a Maryland team with national championship aspirations. Tornetta was a key component to the offense.
