No. 4 Terps Dominate Drexel 7-1, Win 26th Straight Season Opener
8/26/2022 5:29:00 PM | Field Hockey
COLLEGE PARK, MD -- The No. 4 Terps used a big second quarter to propel them to a 7-1 win over Drexel at the Maryland Field Hockey and Women's Lacrosse Complex for the program's 26th consecutive season-opening victory.
The Terps, ranked No. 4 in the Penn Monto/NFHCA Division I National Coaches Preseason Poll, were boosted by a pair of goals apiece from Hope Rose and Sophie Klautz. Maryland also put on a strong defensive performance, not allowing the Dragons to put a shot on goal for the entire first half.
Breaking Down The Action
The Terps, ranked No. 4 in the Penn Monto/NFHCA Division I National Coaches Preseason Poll, were boosted by a pair of goals apiece from Hope Rose and Sophie Klautz. Maryland also put on a strong defensive performance, not allowing the Dragons to put a shot on goal for the entire first half.
Breaking Down The Action
- The Terps dominated time of possession in the first quarter but were unable to score.
- Senior captain Emma DeBerdine broke the scoring drought in the second quarter off a penalty corner, with the assist by Rose.
- Less than two minutes later, Rose added a goal of her own, flicking the ball from the right side into the top left corner.
- Klautz added her first goal in the second quarter and the second one early into the third.
- Rose scored her second in the third quarter and Margot Lawn added another shortly after.
- The Dragons scored their one goal in the final quarter.
- Klautz, making her collegiate debut, started and scored two goals.
- Graduate students Danielle Van Rootselaar (Brown) and Leah Crouse (Duke) both started in their Terp debuts. Van Rootselaar scored her first goal in a Maryland uniform.
- The Terrapins are now 44-3-2 all-time in season openers and have won the last 26 straight openers. The Terps are 15-3 in home openers at the Field Hockey & Lacrosse Complex and have outscored their opponents 72-23 in those 18 games.
- This ties the largest margin of victory in a season opener for the Terps since beating New Hampshire 8-0 in 2003, tying the 2006 6-0 opening win over Pacific.
- With the win, Maryland moves to a 10-0-0 all-time advantage over Drexel.
- 3: The number of shots the stout Maryland defense allowed all game
- 10: The number of penalty corners Maryland earned, compared to Drexel's two.
- 25: The number of shots the relentless Terp offense recorded
- 35: The number of seasons Missy Meharg has now coached for the Terps, the most of any Maryland coach
- The Terps host Stanford at 3 pm on Monday. That game will air on live on Big Ten Network.
