"This was dominant, being able to come on the field and present like that," head coach Missy Meharg said. "Michigan State played super well on Friday. We scored a lot of goals when we played them before, but we didn't play very well. This was a pure dominance of the game.
 
"Also, really happy to have Nike Lorenz back in the lineup. Lizzy Dessoye and a lot of players that haven't had a tremendous amount of minutes are just completely bringing great performances to the table. That couldn't come at a better time of year."
 
Senior tri-captain Linnea Gonzales opened the scoring just 3:30 into the match when she cracked a shot off a pass from junior Madison Maguire just inside the circle and slammed it in. With the goal, Gonzales reached 100 career points off 44 career goals and 12 career assists.
 
Just over 10 minutes later, sophomore Bodil Keus made it a two-goal lead for Maryland when she scored off a hard shot on a penalty corner, set up by Maguire and freshman Bibi Donraadt.
 
Twenty-eight seconds later, redshirt freshman Mayv Clune added the Terps' third goal off a long run. Clune and Donraadt had numbers on Michigan State's goalkeeper. Donraadt's initial shot was saved, then she deflected the ball to Clune for the score over the goalkeeper. Maryland led 3-0 at halftime.
 
Junior Lizzy Dessoye made it a 4-0 lead for the Terrapins when she deflected in a shot off a penalty corner in the 55^th minute. Just over three minutes later, junior Nike Lorenz took the ball herself and carried it to the right side of the circle and cracked a shot into the empty goal.
 
Donraadt scored with 2:08 to go to finalize the score at 6-0. She brought the ball just inside the circle and around three defenders for the goal. She finished the day with one goal and two assists.
 
Senior goalkeeper Sarah Holliday made a save in the first half. Junior Noelle Frost and freshman Sky Joegriner also saw time in goal.
 
Donraadt was named Big Ten Freshman of the Week Monday for the second time this year. Donraadt scored both the game-tying and game-winning goals in the Terps' 2-1 win over No. 17 Northwestern that also clinched a share of the Big Ten title.
 
Gonzales is leading Maryland with 14 goals this season. Maryland has 10 scorers with multiple goals and 14 total Terps have found the goal line.
