COLLEGE PARK, MD —
Logan Wisnauskas pumped his fist and threw his arms around his teammates. By setting
Eric Malever up to score No. 1 Maryland men's lacrosse's 12th goal of the day, he etched his name atop his school's record book.
His assist on this third-quarter score lifted him over
Jared Bernhardt's program-record 290 points. Wisnauskas finished with three goals and an assist to give him 292 points for his career.
The Terrapins improved to 10-0 and 3-0 in the Big Ten as they dominated No. 3 Rutgers, 17-9. It's Maryland's 19th consecutive season with 10 more wins.
Keegan Khan led the Terps with four goals and two assists, followed by Wisnauskas and Malever (2 goals and 3 assists).
Jared Bernhardt and the 2017 national champions were in the house, and Maryland honored the team five years after its title.
The Scarlet Knights (10-2, 2-1) were led by Brian Cameron and Shane Knobloch, who each scored two goals.
