This was supposed to be a tough and close battle bettween top-5 teams. But the Terps turned a rematch from last year's ACC Title game into a blowout.


The Terps dominated the Blue Devils in every phase of the game to win 17-4.


Like in last year's championship game, the Terps started off the game red hot and opened up a 4-0 lead. But unlike the title game, the Terps kept the pedal to the metal.


Amanda Spinnenweber, Sarah Mollison and Katie Schwarzmann each notched hat-tricks in the route.


Duke standout Sarah Bullard ended the run with a goal to make it 4-1, but the Terps reeled off five unanswered goals by halftime to build a 9-1 lead.


The Terps defense anchored by Brittany Dipper, who notched nine saves, did not allow Duke a comback opportunity, while the offense kept piling on the points.
