NCAA Men's Lacrosse Tournament 2016: Matt Dunn's defense led Maryland to victory over Quinnipiac

Going an entire year without committing a penalty takes a combination of discipline and great skill, but Maryland men's lacrosse senior defender Matt Dunn credits something else for his year-long clean streak:

"Luck, the officials," he said. "I'm sure there are a couple calls at some point where I may have gotten someone and the refs didn't call it."

The leader of the Terrapins' defense committed his first foul of the year Sunday in the First Round victory over Quinnipiac, but Dunn didn't seem to care. He had just helped No. 1 Maryland (15-2) shut down the Bobcats, holding them to only six goals on the game, well below Quinnipiac's season average of 10.
