The Terps trailed by two early in the first quarter, but an offensive spurt started by Zach Whittier fueled a comeback.
The Terps struck first for an early advantage and led the rest of the way.
The game will be the Terps’ fourth-straight ranked matchup to begin their campaign.
The Terps have finished the regular season with at least a share of the conference regular season title in every full season since their entrance, but the rest of the Big Ten schools have caught up this year.
Despite starting a freshman goalkeeper, the Terps defeated the No. 3 team in the nation on the road.
