"We knew going into the game that it was going to be a tough transition to that level after the schedule we have so far this year," said head coach Beth Bozman. "I think that we made a couple of key mistakes that were costly, but that will just make us more prepared for Sunday's game."
Junior Carissa Mossimer opened the scoring for he Terrapins off of an assist from freshman Colleen Barbieri. Maryland took a 2-0 lead into the intermission after senior Megan Kelly received a pass from classmate Rachel Hiskins at the stroke mark and was able to find the back of the cage.
