Maryland women’s lacrosse had two players receive Big Ten weekly honors as midfielder Shaylan Ahearn and attacker Aurora Cordingley earned different recognitions for their performances this past week.
Ahearn, a junior and a Woodbine, Maryland, native, was named Big Ten Midfielder of the Week after her stellar performance against No. 10 Virginia. Ahearn helped Maryland lead 19-15 in the draw circle. She especially had a brilliant effort in the third quarter, in which the Terps rattled off eight straight goals. Ahearn went 7-for-9 in draw controls in that quarter alone.
Ahearn is now top-10 in the nation in draw controls after two games.
