No. 3 Maryland women’s lacrosse improved to 7-0 on the season with another dominating effort over the weekend. For the fifth straight game, the Terps limited their opponent to single-digit goals, leading to a decisive 16-6 win against No. 12 Rutgers.
It had been a few games since Maryland matched up against a ranked opponent. But the rust surely didn’t show.
Although they fell behind 1-0 for the first time all season, the Terps rattled off a plethora of scoring runs to put away its Big Ten foes.
“Just being able to maintain our composure and just stick to our game plan even during those times where things seemed a little bit hectic out there,” junior goalkeeper Emily Sterling said.
