🔼 High Praise. Maryland women’s basketball has been picked to finish fourth in the 18-team Big Ten Conference, as voted on by the league’s head coaches and media panel!

Shyanne Sellers, an All-Big Ten First Team honoree last season, was named to the 10-player Preseason All-Big Ten Team for the second straight season.

Goalkeeper Liz Beardsley was clutch for the Terps, tying a career-high with eight saves. Through 12 matches this season Beardsley has totaled 47 saves, and the shutout was the 10th of her career.

Maryland will stay on the road later this weekend, playing at Illinois on Sunday at 3 p.m.
