WASHINGTON— No. 2-ranked Maryland women’s lacrosse erased an early deficit to take down No. 24 Georgetown, 17-8.
Similar to the last matchup against Northwestern, Maryland allowed its opponent to get going early, and struggled as it tried to claw back. The second half was a totally different story, as the Terrapins used a seven goal run to take their first lead and run away with the game.
Maryland out shot Georgetown 32-21, led 24-14 in shots on target and were able to command the draw control with a 21-6 advantage. Jen Giles led the way with five goals and two assists, Erica Evans added four goals, while both Brindi Griffin and Grace Griffin notched hat-tricks.
