GREENSBORO, N.C. – The top-ranked Maryland field hockey team collected all three of the Atlantic Coast Conference’s top individual honors Monday. Jill Witmer was named Offensive Player of the Year, Ali McEvoy was named Defensive Player of the Year and Missy Meharg was named ACC Coach of the Year for the seventh time.
Some observations on a vivctory that just might begin a Ravens move back into the playoff picture:

On every level today was extremely disappointing for Maryland. Bowl eligibility was on the line. Cj, Stinebaugh, Brandon Ross, LA Goree, returned to the lineup. The Terps had 2 weeks to heal their wounds and prepare for this game. On and on. But to no avail, overall it was just a lacklustre performance that certainly frustrated Randy Edsall. 4 turnovers, numerous dropped passes, the inability to stop the run, a missed FG, and many other elements all added up to … Read More »
Some observations of my first visit to Brooklyn Hoops at the Barclay Center:
At first glance of the stats this is what stands out: Huskies had 6 Blocks and 10 Steals–the Terps 0 blocks and 5 steals
The quickness of UConn just created many more easy shots. Super guard Shabazz Napier dominated play with 18 points, 7 bounds, and 7 assists. When he fouled out the entire game changed.
I had no problem with Dez’ first game winning shot, but … Read More »
