In the 78th minute of the national semifinal matchup between Maryland field hockey and Princeton, freshman Bibi Donraadt’s golden goal sent the No. 2-seed Terrapins to the national championship game.

A very tight game that was controlled by Princeton throughout ultimately ended in Maryland’s favor thanks to a dominant overtime period. The No. 3-seed Tigers held a 7-6 lead in shots and 9-2 in penalty corners, but the teams combined for just three shots on goal, with Donraadt’s 15th goal of the season enough to make the difference.

The first half was mostly spent with both teams going back and forth between the 25-yard lines.
