BALTIMORE — Maryland women’s lacrosse is back in the national championship game after missing the mark last season, as the No. 1-seed Terrapins cruised past No. 4-seed Northwestern, 25-13, Friday night at Homewood Field.
The Terrapins never trailed and gained separation late in the first half. Northwestern was within three in the second half, but an incredible 9-0 Maryland run put the game out of reach and then some. The 25 goals are a team-best under head coach Cathy Reese, who won her 300th career game.
Brindi Griffin led the way with six goals, while Grace Griffin added four of her own.
