After starting off the season with two dominant victories over Richmond and New Hampshire, No. 2 Maryland field hockey (2-0) will face much fiercer competition this weekend when it takes on No. 3 Duke and No. 13 Boston College in the B1G/ACC Cup.
While the Terps opened up the season with two statement victories, they were against unranked teams. Nonetheless, Maryland did what it should’ve, outperforming its opponents in practically every category. But this weekend, they face off against two completely different teams, which should provide intense matchups.
“I’m just so happy that [Boston College and Duke] are as good as they are,” head coach Missy Meharg said.
