The Eagles tried to close the gap in the second frame with junior Lauren Costello scoring on a free position attempt nineteen seconds in the frame.

Maryland added two more to give them a final tally of 10 in the game and scored twice more with less than two minutes to go with another tally for Costello and one for senior Jenna McCabe to close out the game 10-5 in favor of the Terps.
