This is the Maryland Minute, a short story followed by a roundup of Terps-related news.

Ten members of the Maryland men’s lacrosse team will be trying out for the U.S. senior national team in Sparks, Maryland, it was announced Monday.

Current Maryland defensive coordinator and 2013 USILA First Team All-American defenseman Jesse Bernhardt was among those invited. The seventh overall pick in the 2016 MLL Draft, Matthew Dunn, was invited as well.

Defenseman Michael Ehrhardt, a 2014 USILA First Team All-American, and 2010 All-ACC goalie Brian Phipps will also be traveling to the in-state headquarters for a chance to make the club.

Four members of the Terps’ 2017 national championship team are also looking to make the most of the opportunity. They include midfielders Colin Heacock and Connor Kelly, along with defenseman Tim Muller and attackman Matt Rambo.

The recently crowned 2022 national champions will be represented at the tryouts by the program’s all-time leader in goals, Logan Wisnauskas, and 2022 All-Big Ten First-Teamer Brett Makar.

The opening round of the tryout process will begin Tuesday and carry through Thursday.
