No. 1 Maryland men’s lacrosse has a significant milestone coming up.
With their comprehensive 14-3 victory over Delaware, the Terps earned the 899th win in program history. One more, and Maryland moves into rarefied air — the Terps would become just the third team ever to reach the milestone of 900, behind Johns Hopkins and Syracuse.
In their way, however, stands a familiar foe. The No. 18 Virginia Cavaliers are the second-most faced opponent all time for Maryland; familiarity breeds contempt, and this rivalry is no exception.
After Maryland’s 2014 departure from the Atlantic Coast Conference, the matchup went on a bit of a hiatus.
