Maryland women’s lacrosse gave its fans something to relish this past Saturday: a victory in its home opener.
In a 15-5 rout of the Saint Joseph’s Hawks, Maryland displayed few weaknesses, albeit against a weaker nonconference opponent. On offense, it outshot the Hawks by 21 and had nine different goal scorers. For the most part, its defense was extremely well-connected, forcing turnovers and attacking ball-carriers with an attitude.
On Tuesday, sophomore defender Kennedy Major described the Terps’ defense, stating, “[We’re] really tenacious, hungry and hard working on and off the ball. I think everyone’s IQ is up there.
