Prior to the season, this game wouldn't have even been a question in my mind. Over the course of 9 games, Maryland has really allowed doubt to creep in. Ohio State COULD win this game. Will they? Time will tell. Maryland, despite no crazy offensive superstar, has a good, efficient unit this year. The Terps are scoring on nearly 31% of their shots, get 62% of their shots on goal, and nearly average 12 goals per game. These are all good numbers.

After taking a good, long look at this year’s Ohio State men’s lacrosse team, it’s time to look at their competition. While Ohio State has taken a small step forward in recruiting, the rest of the conference has upgraded its recruiting and coaching to the point where the Buckeyes are struggling to maintain stasis, let alone move forward.
