The Big Ten tournament is finally upon us, as the Maryland women’s lacrosse team navigated an abbreviated regular season in order to land the tourney’s No. 2 seed. It draws the No. 7 seed Michigan Wolverines in the quarterfinals, which will mark the third meeting between these two teams of the year.
“There’s a lot of excitement around this week for us here,” head coach Cathy Reese said. “Everyone’s pretty fired up and excited just to see what we’re doing when we dive into this next portion of our season.”
The Terrapins are coming off a frustrating loss to Rutgers on April 18, whereas Michigan lost both legs of a two-game series versus Johns Hopkins, increasing the Wolverines’s losing streak to five.
