Maryland not only had a talented core of six seniors, but also looked to an experienced roster which had nine players start at least 17 games in the previous season. Under the direction of head coach Missy Meharg, Maryland garnered a No. 2 national ranking at season's end, while also making its 10th-consecutive NCAA Tournament appearance and 18th national tournament showing overall. The Terps also reached the semifinal round for the fifth time in the last six years. Maryland played host to the first and second rounds of the NCAA Tournament, cruising past Delaware in the first round, 5-2. The Terps then avenged a midseason loss, topping cross-town rival American, 2-0, to advance to the semifinals in Winston-Salem, N.C. For the second-straight year, Paula Infante was named to the All-NCAA Tournament team, becoming just the second Terp in school history to earn the honor twice. FOUR TERPS SELECTED ALL-AMERICANS Four Terrapins were named All-Americans by the National Field Hockey Coaches Association, the most since Lauren Powley garnered her third-straight All-American citation, earning her second first team honor. She is the ninth Terrapin in school history to be named All-American three times. Paula Infante was a first-team selection for the second-consecutive year, despite a position move from defense to midfield. She led the team in goals scored for the second-straight season, notching 14. Seniors Kristin Harris and Sara Silvetti were tabbed All-Americans for the first time in their careers. Both four-year starters on defense and two-time cocaptains, Silvetti earned a spot on the second team, while Harris was a third team honoree. Both were also selected to play in the NFHCA Senior North/South game which was played the weekend of the Final Four. BARBIERI MOVES UP THE RANKS A 2002 NFHCA All-American and the 2001 ACC Rookie of the Year, Colleen Barbieri ended a successful career at Maryland as one of only eight players in school history to score 50 career goals. Tied for seventh on the all-time list, she tallied 51 goals in four years. Over her tenure, she also notched 119 points, good for 10th in the program's career annals. TERPS MAKE RETURN TO ACC TITLE GAME After snapping a string of five-consecutive ACC Championship game appearances in 2003, the Terrapins made a return to the conference title game after defeating Duke, 3-2, in the semifinal game at Kentner Stadium in Winston- Salem, N.C. The Terps earned the No. 2 seed in the tournament after posting wins over the Blue Devils, 5-4 in overtime, and Virginia, 5-0, during the regular season. After a three-way tie between Duke and Wake Forest, Maryland received the second seed because of tie-breaker rules and eventually defeated Duke for a second time in 2004 to reach the championship game. The Terps have 17 ACC title game appearances overall, winning the conference crown five times.

The Terps moved to 1-0 to open the season, posting their eighth-consecutive, season-opening win, while the Eagles fell to 0-1. Tiffany Marsh came up with the game-winning goal at 72:11 on a penalty corner after Boston College goalie Jillian Savoy was called for an intentional foul inside the circle. Savoy was given a yellow card and removed from the game. Not allowed to substitute into the game on a penalty corner, the Eagles were forced to use a kick-in-back to defend the corner. BC was unable to stop the Terp attack and Marsh scored her second goal of the day to win the game for Maryland. Maryland trailed after the first half of play, 1-0, but did not waste any time getting on the board in the second half. Marsh scored an unassisted goal at 2:40 into the second half. The Eagles answered with a Sabrina Lazzari goal to hols on to a slim 2-1 lead late into the second half.

GAME 3 MARYLAND OLD DOMINION SEPTEMBER 4, 2004 COLLEGE PARK, Md. - Maryland scored five goals in the second half en route to a 6-0 thumping of Old Dominion to open the 2005 home slate. It is the most lopsided Terps victory in the series versus the Lady Monarchs. The quality of the second half is what we ve been looking for. It was the most dynamic hockey we ve played so far this season, said head coach Missy Meharg. I m pleased for all of our players. They played with a lot of energy and I m proud of the intensity and spirit they had today. The opening game of the home-and-home series, the Terps (3-0) were dominant throughout the game, attempting 27 shots on the afternoon. The Terrapin defense was just as good, limiting traditional powerhouse ODU (1-1) to just three shots and three penalty corners in the contest. Maryland took a 1-0 lead eight minutes into the game. The Terps moved the ball down the left side of the field and Anja Boettcher made a long pass to All-American Paula Infante, who was on the base line. Infante then made a perfect cross to All-American Jackie Ciconte, who was standing directly in front of the net and Ciconte put the ball away for the score. Despite the 12 first-half shots, UM could not extend its lead until the second half. Sara Silvetti tacked on another goal on a penalty corner in the 44th minute to make it 2-0. The Terps then fired off three-straight goals over six minutes to pull away and lead by a 5-0 margin. Infante scored on a one-timer at the top of the circle in the 56th minute. A minute later, Boettcher sailed a shot over the goalkeeper s shoulder to push the lead to 4-0. Lauren Foundos tapped in a rebound off a penalty corner for her first score of the season. Maryland was awarded its ninth penalty corner with time expired and Silvetti capped off the game with the Terps final score. Old Dominion had a couple of one-on-one opportunities early in the second half. Christina Restivo, however, made a big save and a big stop which did not allow ODU to get a shot to off to protect the shutout. ODU goalkeeper Mary Cate Gordon had seven saves in the game.

GAME 4 MARYLAND DREXEL SEPTEMBER 5, 2004 COLLEGE PARK, Md. - Anja Boettcher recorded her second-career hat trick, leading the Terrapins to a 7-1 win over Drexel to close out the weekend. With Saturday s thrilling victory over Old Dominion, Maryland outscored its opponents, 13-1, in the home-opening weekend to remain undefeated on the season at 4-0. Maryland was efficient from the opening whistle, scoring three unanswered goals on its first three shots to take a commanding 3-0 lead in the first 6:10 of the game. Tiffany Marsh found Jackie Ciconte twice on two of the Terps first three goals, first at 1:51 and then again at 6:10. In between Ciconte s scores, Kristin Harris tallied the eventual game-winning goal, sending a shot high past the Drexel goalkeeper for her first score of the season. Boettcher s first of three goals at 10:01 helped Maryland build its lead to 4-0. Coming into the game, Maryland had not been scored on for almost 173 consecutive minutes, dating back to the overtime win vs. Boston College in the opening match of the season on Aug. 28. The Terps stretched that scoreless streak to 191 minutes until Elizabeth Seidel s goal at 18:18, also giving the Dragons their first score in the series. Drexel had been shut out in the three previous meetings. The Terps went on to close the half with a 5-1 lead on a penaltycorner goal from Sara Silvetti. In the second half, Boettcher scored two more times to complete the hat trick with assists from Emily Beach and Ciconte. Boettcher is also the last Terrapin to score a hat trick. She did so in the 7-0 victory at UMass last year. Terrapin goalkeepers Christina Restivo and Kathryn Masson split time in the net, with Masson making her first-career appearance, logging 23 minutes and a save. Restivo also had a save.

GAME 5 MARYLAND MASSACHUSETTS SEPTEMBER 11, 2004 TERRAPIN INVITATIONAL COLLEGE PARK, Md. - Terrapins shut out its third opponent in four games, topping Massachusetts, 6-0, on the first day of the Terrapin Invitational. All-American Jackie Ciconte paced the Maryland attack with a pair of goals as five different Terps tallied in the win. Maryland (5-0) had allowed just one goal since the seasonopening game at Boston College when the Terps won, 3-2 in overtime, and have scored 21 goals during that span. A 4-0 halftime deficit was too much for the Minutewomen (0-4) to overcome. Massachusetts had just two shots in the game, both coming in the first half from Jaime Bawden. Tiffany Marsh gave Maryland a 1-0 lead at 3:49 when she deflected All-American Paula Infante s pass off the restart from the top right of the scoring circle. The Terps never looked back. After a 16-minute scoring drought, Maryland rattled off back-toback tallies from Sara Silvetti and Anja Boettcher, respectively, in the 21st and 23rd minutes to jump ahead, 3-0. Silvetti scored on one of Maryland s 12 penalty corners with assists coming from Emily Boyer and Janneke van Leeuwen. Before time wound down for the break, Emily Trycinski muscled the ball from underneath UMass goalkeeper Christine Tocco and notched her first-career goal and Maryland claimed a 4-0 edge at the end of the half. In the second period, Ciconte s back-to-back goals, just 15 seconds apart in the 48th minute, capped the scoring for the Terps, making the score 6-0. Her first score was a textbook give-and-go with All-American Lauren Powley in the circle. Despite being tripped up, Ciconte was on the winning end of a 1-v-1 with the goaltender for her second goal of the afternoon. Maryland shelled the UMass netminders, making 28 shot attempts. Tocco had eight saves in the loss. There was a special guest on the Terrapin sidelines this afternoon. The University s Senior Vice President for Academic Affairs and Provost William W. Destler was on hand at the match as Guest Coach. Maryland has never lost a game in its home tournament Massachusetts (0-4) Maryland (5-0) GOALS: UMass None.

GAME 6 MARYLAND NORTHWESTERN SEPTEMBER 12, 2004 TERRAPIN INVITATIONAL COLLEGE PARK, Md. - All-American Lauren Powley had a goal and an assist to lead Maryland to a 2-0 win over Northwestern on the second day of the Terrapin Invitational. The Terps have never lost in their home tournament, going 16-0 since the tournament began in I m proud of the way we played today, said head coach Missy Meharg. Northwestern is a very competitive team. What is glaring is that we didn t give up a shot or penalty corner. Northwestern was excellent and we did what we had to do to win. 27

4 28 Maryland (6-0) used goals from Tiffany Marsh and Powley to grab the win. Marsh scored the game-winning goal on a cross from Powley at 5:58 in the first half. Marsh has three game winners so far this season, the most on the team. Powley gave the Terps a two-goal cushion at the 23:08 mark in the same period on a penalty corner. Emily Boyer and Janneke van Leeuwen assisted on the goal. In the second half, the Terps continued to create scoring opportunities, but were not able to score. Wildcat goalkeeper Sherri- Anne Nyberg made six saves in the game, three in each half, to keep Maryland to two tallies. But the Terrapin defense was impenetrable as it has been all season, not allowing Northwestern (4-3) a shot or a penalty corner in the game. Maryland had 16 shots in the game, the lowest shot total for the Terps this season. They also earned nine penalty corners. The Terps played without Kristin Harris, who had played every game since arriving on campus in Having played in 75 career games while starting in 74, she sat out today s contest after an injury. She is listed as day-to-day. She s one of our captains and she has played every game, said Meharg of Harris. We missed her today. Northwestern (4-3) Maryland (6-0) GOALS: NU None.

Six different players contributed goals as the defense shut down the Tigers attack. Maryland has never lost to Towson, improving its record in the series to For the second-consecutive game, the Terrapin (7-0) defense shut down the opposition s attack and did not allow a shot or a penalty corner. In the blanking of No. 19 Northwestern, the Terps shut out the Wildcats in both categories, as well. On the other end of the field, Maryland attempted a season-high 44 shots and was awarded 13 penalty corners. The Terps first goal came after a penalty corner in the eighth minute. Sara Silvetti scored on the rebound after Towson goalkeeper Christina Armer made a save on Paula Infante s penalty corner shot attempt. Late in the first half, the Terps added two more tallies as rain moved in quickly and came down fast. Colleen Barbieri scored on an assist from Anja Boettcher at 30:57.

GAME 8 PRINCETON MARYLAND SEPTEMBER 17, 2004 PRINCETON, N.J. - Second-ranked Maryland used five goals in the second half to pull away from a 2-1 halftime score and defeat Princeton, 7-1, at the Class of 52 Stadium. Terrapin All-American Paula Infante had a natural hat trick and goalkeeper Christina Restivo had a standout game to lead the Terps to the win. The game was scoreless for more than 20 minutes of the first half but Maryland (8-0) got it going first, notching the first goal of the game. Janneke van Leeuwen was in the right place at the right time and knocked in a rebound to give the Terps a 1-0 lead. Minutes later, Princeton (1-4) made a charge of its own getting three-straight shots, two off a penalty corner. But Maryland s Restivo was able to thwart away the threat, including a shot on the baseline, and protect the lead. In the 28th minute, the Terps added to their advantage. A Tiger defender attempted to clear a ball from the scoring circle, however, All-American Jackie Ciconte intercepted it. The ball was passed around to Kristin Harris and then to Infante who powered a shot from the top of the circle and into the back of the net. Facing a two-goal deficit, Princeton responded with about four minutes left in the period. One of the Tigers two penalty corners in the half was all they needed to cut into the Maryland lead. In the 31st minute, Princeton s shot attempt on the corner was saved by Restivo but Hilary Schmidt was in front of the cage ready for the rebound and knocked it in for the score, making it 2-1. The Terps, however, were even better in the second half, padding their lead by adding five goals in the period. Infante, who came into the game having scored just two goals on the season, completed the hat trick, tallying two more times on penalty corners to put Maryland ahead, 4-1. Maryland was unstoppable on penalty corners, earning eight in the second half and 10 for the match. Van Leeuwen, who had scored her first-career goal in the game vs. Towson earlier in the week, got behind the Princeton goalkeeper, who saved the initial penalty corner shot attempt, and van Leeuwen knocked in the rebound for her second of the evening. Tiffany Marsh pushed the Maryland lead to an insurmountable five goals on a penalty corner. Anja Boettcher wrapped things up with the Terps seventh goal of the game on a pass from Colleen Barbieri with just 40 seconds left on the clock. For most of the game, Princeton put a lot of pressure on the Maryland defense, attempting 14 shots, equaling the number of shots the Terps have allowed this season coming into the game. However, Restivo had a career outing making 11 saves, many of them diving shots. Infante s hat trick was the first of her career. She is the second Terp this season to tally three times in a game. Boettcher accomplished that feat in the Terps 7-1 win over Drexel. Emily Beach also had a career-high three assists.

GAME 9 DELAWARE MARYLAND SEPTEMBER 19, 2004 NEWARK, Del. - No. 2 Maryland scored three unanswered goals in the second half for a come-from-behind victory over No. 14 Delaware, 4-3, at Rullo Stadium. Emily Beach tallied the game-winning goal to lead the Terps to the win. [Maryland] responded so well in the second half. Delaware was much more aggressive than we were. They had us emotionally from the get go, said Maryland s Missy Meharg. But we talked about what we had to do at the half. The team listened well and got things going tactically. It was a very good, physical game and we needed that. The Terps (9-0) were in an unfamiliar position after the first half of play. They were behind for the first time since the opening game of the season on Aug. 28, trailing Delaware (4-3), 2-1. Three minutes into the game, Delaware s Lauren Carr gave her team its first lead, scoring on a rebound. Maryland was not down for long, tying the score two minutes later on a goal from Colleen Barbieri. All-American Jackie Ciconte made a quick pass to Barbieri who knocked it in for the goal. But the Blue Hens regained the advantage going ahead, 2-1, as Leah Geib scored on a pass from Erica LaBar after a penalty corner. Delaware limited the Terps scoring chances to just five shots in the period, their lowest total of the season, and was able to keep Maryland off the scoreboard the remainder of the half. Delaware did not let up, adding another goal to take a 3-1 lead 10 minutes into the second period. Geib deflected a pass off a penalty corner for UD s third goal of the game, the most goals the Terps have allowed to an opponent this season. Down 3-1, the Terps began creating more and more opportunities and were knocking on the door, creating 1-v-1 chances, shots missing by just inches and even one shot hitting the post. All-American Lauren Powley made a pass into the circle on the restart and Barbieri had a quick touch on the ball for the quick score at the 47-minute mark, to bring the Terps to within one goal, 3-2. Delaware s defense was able to fend off two shots off a Maryland penalty corner in the 61st minute, but it was the third shot that got past the goalkeeper as Janneke van Leeuwen scored the equalizer, 3-3. It was defender Emily Beach who came through for the Terps when they most needed it. She moved the ball inside the circle and took a long-range shot and scored, putting UM ahead for the first time all game at 55:40. It was also the first goal of her career. Maryland had one more hurdle to overcome. In the last four minutes, the Terps were a player down after a yellow card was given to Tiffany Marsh. The defense warded off any real threat, even after a penalty corner was awarded to the Blue Hens with time expired.

The defense was equally as good, smothering the Cavalier attack, which is ranked in the top 15 in the nation and has scored at least three goals in nine games this season. Virginia was shutout and limited to just four shots, two in each half. The Maryland offense outran the UVA defense on many occasions, getting behind the defense and creating man-up situations and fastbreak opportunities several times.

All-American Jackie Ciconte was open on the baseline after a Maryland penalty corner opportunity and deflected fellow All-American Lauren Powley s shot attempt into the net. With the Terps leading 3-0 at the break, Powley carried the ball most of the way down the field before passing it to a cutting Paula Infante, who scored less than five minutes into the second half, giving Maryland the 4-0 lead.

American goalkeeper Allison Fayfich had 11 saves. The Terrapins also had 15 penalty corners while the Eagles (10-2) had four.

AU s Heidi Hershberger tapped in a rebound after a penalty corner at 49:40 to tie the game. Camila Infante, the younger sister of Maryland s Paula Infante, dribbled the ball down the left sideline, drove across the baseline and flicked in a shot over a diving Maryland goalkeeper Christina Restivo for the eventual game-winning goal at 60:49. Hershberger gave the Eagles a two-goal lead at 63:07 on a pass from Maureen Daniel on a penalty corner. Facing a two-goal deficit, the Terps continued to attack in the final minutes but ran out of time. I m disappointed by the result, but my team worked really hard today and I m very proud of them, said head coach Missy Meharg. We have to work more in the area of goal scoring and we have to stay positive. American is a very good squad. The series dates back to 1974 when the Terps defeated the Eagles, 9-0, on Oct. 3.

GAME 14 MARYLAND (OT) DUKE OCTOBER 9, 2004 COLLEGE PARK, Md. - All-American Jackie Ciconte scored on her own rebound in overtime, lifting fifth-ranked Maryland over fourth-ranked Duke, 5-4, in a pivotal ACC clash at the Field Hockey & Lacrosse Complex. With the win, the Terps stand alone in second place in the ACC at 2-1, while the Blue Devils fall into a third-place tie with Wake Forest with a 1-2 record. I m proud of the team s mental vigilance coming off of a disappointing loss [to American]. This game could have gone either way, said head coach Missy Meharg. I m proud of their mental toughness and I m proud of their fight. With two of the top five teams in the nation battling it out for positioning in the conference standings, the game featured nine goals, three penalty shots, 21 penalty corners, 51 shots, an extra 13 minutes and 20 seconds of action and a lot of excitement. The last time these two teams met was in the 2003 NCAA Tournament semifinals when Duke got the better of the Terps, 4-2. Maryland (12-2, 2-1 ACC) had been waiting a long time to avenge that loss. All-American Paula Infante gave the Terps their first lead, converting a penalty shot at 15:11 in the first half. But Duke (9-3, 1-2 ACC) evened the score, 1-1, just before the end of the period on a penalty corner goal by Gracie Sorbello. The statistics at the break were almost equal, with Duke holding the slight edge in shots, 9-8, and Maryland outcornered the Blue Devils, 5-3. Maryland goaltender Kathryn Masson put together a solid first half, making three saves in the period. The Terps came out firing in the second period, reclaiming the lead at 38:25 as Infante moved along the top side of the scoring circle to the left and sailed a shot past the goalie, making the score, 2-1. Ciconte batted in a rebound in the 46th minute to put Maryland out in front, 3-1. Duke s Amy Stopford put her team within a tally when she scored in the 52nd minute, but Maryland Colleen Barbieri responded eight minutes later to give the Terps a two-goal cushion with a shot from the baseline, 4-2. Back-to-back penalty shots were called in Duke s favor, however, the first at 60:18 followed by another at 63:48, allowing the Blue Devils to knot the score at 4-4 and send the game into overtime. Johanna Bischof and Stopford each converted a penalty shot for Duke. The Terps had to fend off 10 Duke penalty-corner opportunities in the period, while earning just two to make it to the overtime. Masson continued to step up in key moments of the game, making five saves in the second half and a number of defensive clears on breakaways. Looking for the golden goal in the extra period as just seven players are on the field for each side, Maryland created the most opportunities. Many were man-up breakaways which were thwarted by Duke keeper Christy Morgan. In the game s final play, Ciconte received a pass from the baseline in front of the goal. Morgan made the save, however, Ciconte answered with the putback to give Maryland its 12th-straight win over the Blue Devils in College Park. Duke has never recorded a road victory against the Terps. The Terps were outshot for the first time since the 2002 season, as Duke had 28 attempts while Maryland had 23. Masson ended the game with a career-high nine saves and Duke goalie Morgan had six.

However, the Terp defense thwarted the opportunity and Maryland held on for the one-goal lead at the break. The Heels took advantage of the seven penalty corners they earned, scoring early in the second half, tying the game at 1-1 at 40:10. Kerry Falgowski deflected Carey Fetting-Smith s penalty corner shot into the net for the equalizer. Masson made four of her five saves in the second half.
