Third-quarter explosion lifts No. 7 Maryland field hockey to 6-0 win over Towson
The Terps are 5-0 for the first time since 2022.
In a dramatic turn of events, No. 7 Maryland field hockey team secured a thrilling 6-0 victory over previously unbeaten Towson Tigers on Sunday, September 28, 2025. Maryland's Missy Meharg noted that her team's lack of focus in the first two quarters contributed to their initial struggles against the determined Tigers. However, the Terps responded in the third quarter with a four-goal burst, led by sophomore Jordyn Hollamon's hat trick.
Hollamon's impressive performance, which included a goal off a penalty corner and another from point-blank range, was crucial in Maryland's dominance. Freshman Kendall Gilmore also contributed a goal in the third quarter. Towson's defense, led by goalie Riley Redding, thwarted Maryland's early attempts, but the Terps' relentless pressure eventually paid off.
Maryland closed the scoring in the fourth quarter with goals from Ella Fehr and Babs van Hest, solidifying their impressive season-opening win. This victory marks Maryland's fifth straight win at the start of the season.
