    COLLEGE PARK, Md. - The University of Maryland women's lacrosse team will play host to Georgetown on Sunday, May 16, at 1 p.m. at Ludwig Field. The winner will advance to the NCAA Final Four where they will face either Virginia or Northwestern. The Terps advanced after their 22-4 win over Temple, while Georgetown moved on after a dramatic overtime 13-12 win at Duke. LiveStats and audio will be available for the game.

    The Terps (15-4) and Hoyas (12-4) met earlier this year, with Maryland coming away with a 13-8 victory. In that game, Kelly Coppedge had eight points on six goals and two assists. Delia Cox scored a hat trick -- including the first goal of the game just 19 seconds after the first draw -- to help pace the Terps.

    Maryland leads the all-time series 13-1. The Terps and Hoyas have met three times in the NCAA Tournament, with Maryland coming away with a win in all three. The last time the two met in the tournament was in the 2001 finals, when Maryland defeated Georgetown in a thriller, 14-13 in sudden-death overtime.

    Notes from the win over Temple

  • Jenny Marmion and Meghan Higgins each scored the first goals of their careers against the Owls.
  • Kelly Coppedge's seven-point outing was the seventh game this season in which she has scored at least six points.
  • Coppedge needs just four points to become the 14th player in Division I history to reach 300 career points.
  • Acacia Walker tied her career high in points (six) and assists (four). Walker also hauled down eight draw controls, a season-high for any Terp.
  • Maryland committed 23 turnovers, its most this season. However, Maryland's 18 caused turnovers matched a season best (the Terps also caused 18 turnovers against Denver).
  • Walker's goal at 26:38 in the first half -- Maryland's fifth goal of the game -- turned out to be the game winner. Walker has four game-winners this season, second only to Coppedge (five).
  • It was Maryland's third 20-goal outing this season.
  • Freshman Jen Greeberg, who has played in three games this season, scored her fourth goal of the season against Temple. She has scored a goal in all four shots she has taken this year.
  • Reserve goalie Kate Capelle made her first NCAA Tournament appearance against the Owls. In three minutes of work, Capelle made two saves for the Terps.
  • The Terps used all 28 players available for the game against Temple.

    If Maryland wins...

  • The Terps would advance to the Final Four for the second straight season, and for the 14th time in the last 15 seasons.
  • Maryland would be 16-4 on the year.
  • The Terps will have a four-game winning streak.
  • Maryland would improve to 14-1 all-time against Georgetown, including three in a row.

    If Maryland loses...

  • The Terp would finish the season 15-5.
  • Maryland would fail to get to the semifinals in two of the past three seasons.
  • The Hoyas would snap a two-game losing streak to the Terps, and will have won two of the last three games played at Ludwig Field.
  • Georgetown would be in its third Final Four in the last four years.
