Maryland women’s soccer’s defense has been a bright spot in an inconsistent start

Through six games this season, the Maryland women’s soccer team has averaged 0.83 goals per game while allowing 1.17. With the offense still trying to figure it out, the defense has been the strength of the team all season, keeping the Terps in games with a chance to win.

The cornerstone to any good defense is having a brick wall for a goalie to lead the way. Maryland seems to have two of those. Throughout the early part of this season, head coach Ray Leone has shown that he has no issue with utilizing both of his goalkeepers, senior Rachel Egyed and junior Erin Seppi, in each game however he sees fit.
