“When we on the sideline have no idea what they’re about to do,” Greyhounds coach Jen Adams said, “it’s very difficult for the opposition to figure it out.”

An illegal procedure call based on glove color (for real) late in a close game became the talk of college lacrosse last week. Was it the right call?

The traditional lacrosse powerhouses are no longer finding it so easy to get through the Big Ten conference regular season.

Last year’s Ivy League Player of the Year wanted to play in front of friends and family, sure, but she ultimately chose the Terps because she hoped to compete for a national championship. Her veteran savvy has Maryland surging into a Sweet 16 game with Notre Dame.

The former Catonsville star is the centerpiece of a video watched 1.5 million times on TikTok.

Diamond Miller saw her best friends leave the program but opted to stay at Maryland. Now she has the Terps headed to a third straight Sweet 16 and a rematch Saturday in Greenville, South Carolina, with No. 3 seed Notre Dame.

Brandon Miller heated up and so did Alabama, which avoided the fate of two other top NCAA Tournament seeds and brushed aside Maryland 73-51 behind a dominant second half on Saturday night.
