Maryland vs Virginia Lacrosse Preview

The undefeated Maryland Terrapins (15-0) and two-time defending champion Virginia Cavaliers (12-3) meet in a marquee matchup on Sunday with a trip to the NCAA Men’s Lacrosse Final Four on the line.

Maryland is seeking to become the first unbeaten Division I champion since 2006. They were a game away from achieving that feat last season before they were defeated in the national championship game by Virginia, who also ousted them in the 2019 quarterfinals. The Cavaliers are looking to win their third straight title this year.

“[These are] the defending national champions and they’re champions until you beat them. So, we have to show that in the playoffs we can do that,” Maryland coach John Tillman said. “We need to kind of have an underdog mentality because they are the guys that have the crown and you have to take it from them.”

Maryland and Virginia met earlier in the regular season when both were undefeated and ranked No. 1 and No. 2 on March 19th. The Terrapins came out on top with a 23-12 win in D.C.

Sunday’s game will feature two of the Tewaaraton Award finalists – Maryland’s Logan Wisnauskas and Virginia’s Connor Shellenberger. The fifth-year attacker Wisnauskas leads the top-ranked Terrapins in goals (52), assists (38) and points (90) this season. The redshirt sophomore attacker Shellenberger leads the Cavaliers in points with 76 (32 goals and 44 assists).

Maryland dominated Vermont in the first round, 21-5, which was the largest margin of victory in an NCAA Tournament game in the program’s history.

Virginia advanced to the quarterfinals with a win over eighth-seeded Brown in Providence, 17-10.

The winner of Sunday’s game will move on to the Final Four in East Hartford, CT where they will take on the fifth-seeded Princeton Tigers.
