After losing its third straight game by only one goal, Penn State comes into Sunday’s matchup with a chip on its shoulder.
However, the contest promises to be perhaps the biggest challenge yet for the 2-6 blue and white this season as it faces No. 1 Maryland.
Fresh off a double-digit victory vs. then-No. 2 Virginia last Saturday, the Terrapins have been dominant all season thus far.
With an unblemished record of 7-0, Maryland stands as one of only two teams ranked in the latest top-20 Inside Lacrosse poll without a loss on its resume.
Despite the discrepancy in records, coach Jeff Tambroni said he feels his team is prepared as it has been battle-tested all year long.
