Cordingley leads a Maryland offense which has scored 17-plus goals in every game and is second in the nation in scoring offense, averaging 18.33 goals per game.
Cordingley has now won Big Ten Offensive Player of the Week honors in three-straight weeks, becoming the first Terp to three-peat since three-time Tewaaraton winner earned the distinction three weeks in a row in 2015 (March 23, March 30, April 6).
