Trailing 1-0 at halftime, Maryland women’s soccer was facing a tough path to earn its third straight result.
All of the sudden, the tide was changing for Maryland in the 74th minute. About five minutes after defender Adalee Broadbent tied it up for the Terps, another golden opportunity presented itself.
Forward Toni Domingos, going for an errant Richmond pass in the penalty box, was tripped up by goalkeeper Claire Hinkle. The play resulted in a foul in the box and an ensuing penalty kick for Maryland. Sophomore midfielder Catherine DeRosa stepped up to the plate, searching for her first career goal in Maryland’s biggest spot of the season.
