No. 2 Maryland women’s lacrosse took down No. 23 Penn State on Thursday, 17-6, despite a slow start in rainy weather to continue its dominance in conference play.

Sophomore Grace Griffin led the way with four goals, while Kali Hartshorn and Caroline Steele added three each. Senior goalie Megan Taylor stayed hot, saving 8 of 14 shots. After falling behind 3-1 early, Maryland turned it on and gained separation in the second half.

The Terrapins outshot the Nittany Lions 43-18, 33-14 in shots on target, and took a stranglehold on the draw control with a 19-6 advantage.
