No. 8 Maryland women’s lacrosse was a shell of itself against then-No. 15 James Madison. All the little things — draw controls and free position shooting — plagued the Terps throughout the contest, leading to a 13-8 defeat.
Although James Madison came into the contest as a nationally-ranked team, it was a shocking result as the nation’s highest scoring offense was held to eight goals on 23 shot attempts.
“We didn’t stay out of the eight-meter as much as we needed to,” head coach Cathy Reese said. “We kind of clogged that space and played into their style and therefore were not very effective on the offensive end.
