Lacrosse: ‘Cats outlast Maryland to win Big Ten regular season title

On a chilly day at Martin Stadium, No. 2 Northwestern secured the outright Big Ten regular season championship over No. 12 Maryland, 13-6.

There are few rivalries as storied as the ‘Cats against the Terps, but this year Northwestern took the crown. In doing so, they also clinched the No. 1 seed in the Big Ten Tournament.

Izzy Scane struck first, and NU jumped out to a 3-0 lead.
