The first half of No. 8 Maryland men’s soccer’s game against Old Dominion was relatively uneventful.
However, just before the halftime intermission, the Terps finally broke through. Following a nifty overlap pass, redshirt senior Nick Richardson was tripped up entering the 18-yard box, securing a penalty kick for Maryland.
Senior midfielder Malcolm Johnston calmly stepped up to the spot and struck the ball into the left side of the goal, giving his team a 1-0 lead that they would hold for the remainder of the game.
The Terps cruised to a one-goal win over Old Dominion Friday night in College Park, moving their overall record to 6-1-2 this season.
