• Last year, in a battle between two top-three teams, the Terps came out on top 14-13 in an overtime thriller. Brian Ruppel made three incredible saves in short succession to keep the game tied and Daniel Kelly scored the game-winner to send the Terps out of Charlottesville with a win.
• The last meeting between the two schools in College Park came back in 2014. The Terps came away with a 9-6 win thanks to five points from Henry West, including his first career hat trick.

Daniel Kelly scored the game-winner in overtime to give the Terps the win in Charlottesville last season. 

• The Terps welcome back a large number of key returners from the 2023 team, including defenseman Ajax Zappitello, faceoff specialist Luke Wierman, attackmen Braden Erksa, Daniel Maltz and Daniel Kelly, and midfielders Jack Koras, Jack Brennan, Eric Spanos, Zach Whittier and Owen Murphy. Zappitello and Wierman were both First Team All Big-Ten and All-Americans last season while Erksa was the Big Ten Freshman of the Year.
• Zappitello will don the heralded and historic number one jersey for the Terps. 
• In total, the Terps return over 90 percent of last year's goal scoring.
• The Terps also get back two key pieces from season-ending injuries suffered in 2022 NCAA Tournament MOP Logan McNaney and attackman Eric Malever who totaled 48 points (26G, 22A). 

Ajax Zappitello is the second consecutive close defenseman to wear the Maryland No. 1 jersey. 

• With his 12th of 17 face-off wins against Richmond on Feb. 3, Luke Wierman became Maryland's all-time program leader in face-off wins. He broke Andy Claxton's record of 648 that had stood for over three decades. Against Notre Dame, Wierman added 12 more faceoff wins and now has 715 all-time. 
• Wierman is also climbing up the career groundballs list and is one of only three Terps in history to scoop up 300 or more groundballs. He joined the exclusive 300 Club with his first of eight groundballs vs. Johns Hopkins on April 22, 2023. 
• With six groundballs at Notre Dame, Wierman offically became second all-time in career groundballs, passing Brian Haggerty (380). 
• Wierman set yet another program record against Princeton on Feb. 24, 2024 as he won a remarkable 20 of 23 faceoffs for 87%, marking the highest faceoff win percentage in program history for those who won a minimum of 20 faceoffs.

After suffering a season-ending ACL injury against Loyola last season, McNaney missed the remainder of the 2023 season. Against the Spiders, McNaney played all 65:05 minutes and made 13 saves, including two in overtime. 
• McNaney followed up that performance with 12 saves against Loyola, holding the Greyhounds to just four goals for their lowest scoring total since 2017. He then made a season-high 14 saves at Syracuse followed by 10 saves vs. Princeton.

Rennie Smith, who totaled 128 career points from 1955-58, a total of 61 Maryland men's lacrosse student-athletes have reached the 100-point milestone for their careers.
