COLLEGE PARK, MD – Each week during the 2024-25 season, a Maryland student-athlete who demonstrates excellence on and off the field will be honored as the Solomon Eye Physicians & Surgeons Terp of the Week.
This week's recipient is sophomore JJ Suriano of the Maryland women's lacrosse team.
The Maryland freshman goalie led the Terps to the Big Ten Championship game with the best performances of her career. Then in the championship game, she had a career game, making 18 saves, in a narrow 8-7 loss to Northwestern. The 18 saves equaled a Big Ten Tournament record and were the most by a Terp in a game since Megan Taylor had 20 vs. Florida in 2017. Suriano tied her previous career-high with 13 saves in the Semifinal win over Michigan. She made a total of 37 saves in three games (12.3 per game), allowing just 9.7 goals per game and making a 56.1 save percentage in the three games, being named to the Big Ten All-Tournament Team.
