Maryland will look to claim its fifth Big Ten title and first since 2022 after knocking off Penn State in the semifinals on Thursday.

Daniel Kelly scores five goals on five shots — including a pair of decisive late strikes — to help lift the Terps past the Nittany Lions, 10-8. Ohio State awaits in the final.

No. 2-seed Maryland lacrosse needed to build some momentum. The Terps had just killed a three-minute penalty, and head coach John Tillman’s bench was fired up. Maryland had the chance to stretch its lead — the Terps had scored just once in 24 minutes — but a sloppy turnover by Braden Erksa allowed Penn State to run the other way and tie the game.
