COLLEGE PARK, Md. -
The No. 1 ranked University of Maryland women's lacrosse team (17-0) celebrated Senior Day with a 16-12 win over No. 4 Loyola (12-4) in the Terps' regular-season finale at Ludwig Field. Seniors Jen Adams (Brighton, South Australia) and Quinn Carney (Flemington, N.J.) led the Terrapins. Adams finished with five goals and five assists, while Carney netted five goals and two assists. Loyola's Stacey Morlang finished the day with four goals and an assist in the losing effort.
Maryland jumped out to a 2-0 start on a pair of goals from the senior duo of Adams and Carney before Morlang started the scoring for the Greyhounds. Terrapin senior Allison Comito (Glen Head, N.Y.) found the net for her only goal of the day to give Maryland the 3-1 lead before Morlang pulled the fourth-ranked Greyhounds within one again at the 9:31 mark on her second goal of the afternoon.
