BOYDS, Md. -- The final week is here! There are only six more games in the inaugural season of Athletes Unlimited and there is a lot to play for, as the champion will be decided this weekend. Let's take a look at where we stand and where you can watch your Terps in Week Five.
Taylor Cummings: Points Leader
Through five weeks of play, no one has accumulated more points than Taylor Cummings. The Week Four & Five Captain is in the drivers seat to be named the first ever Athletes Unlimited champion as she sits atop the leaderboard with 1,507 points.
The only lacrosse player to ever win the Tewaaraton three times, Cummings has not lost a beat.
Here's a great story by Inside Lacrosse on Cummings phenomenal AU season.
Cummings has fellow Terp Kelly McPartland on her team for Week Five. A few weeks ago they connected like it was 2015.
McPartland stands in 19th place in the standings with 1,019 points.
The Alex Aust Attack
Another Terp who has showed out in Athletes Unlimited is Alex Aust, who has 982 points and is contention to be named the champion, scoring 14 goals in nine games played.
Aust has had many memorable moments, including scoring five goals and the game winner in her first game.
Alex has also, of course, brought her fire TikTok game to Athletes Unlimited.
Douty, Hensh & Rudkin
The other three Terps, Meg Douty, Taylor Hensh and Kathy Rudkin stand 27th, 29th and 30th respectively in the points standings and all have had fantastic moments throughout the first four weeks.
Including this amazing check by Douty:
Hensh has been vocal in her support of Zaching Against Cancer, a cause close to the Maryland community.
Rudkin has taken to Instagram about her playing experience as well.
