For the third consecutive season, No. 5 Maryland men’s lacrosse begins its season against No. 20 Richmond.
The Terps have yet to lose a game against Richmond, winning all four matchups to date, but the Spiders have not made things easy. Three of the four contests have been one-goal affairs, with two going to double overtime — including last year’s matchup, which was won dramatically by Owen Murphy.
Head coach John Tillman, anticipating his team’s reactions against one of the less reputable names on Maryland’s schedule, has attempted to ward off any potential complacency.
“We’re going to have our hands full,” Tillman said.
