MM 9.3: 3 Maryland field hockey players named to Big Ten Players to Watch list

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

Maryland field hockey kicked off its season last weekend, but before then, three Terps were named to the Big Ten Players to Watch list. Last week, the conference chose Josie Hollamon, Hope Rose and Emma DeBerdine as three of the 27 selectees.

Last weekend, the Terps squeezed out two competitive wins over then-No. 7 Louisville and Drexel. Hollamon, Rose and DeBerdine each heavily contributed.

Hollamon kick-started the season Friday against Louisville, scoring the Terps’ first goal of the year in the second quarter. But it was Rose who stole the show, scoring the game-winning goal in double overtime.

While DeBerdine has not scored yet this season, she has played the second-most minutes on the team with 119, only trailing goalkeeper Alyssa Klebasko by five minutes.
