After an exhausting 2 hour trek from Baltimore to Annapolis, I decided to view this game on CBS College Sports Network with Stan Goldstein at Rick Jaklitsch’s house. What a rainy, miserable night in Annapolis. But the Terrapins were able to take care of business easily defeating a Freshmen laden Navy squad squad. Curtis Holmes dominated the face offs early and Maryland jumped out to a 6-1 lead early and never looked back. Again it was the middies doing the … Read More »
