STONY BROOK, N.Y. - The Stony Brook women's lacrosse team looks to take down the No. 1 overall seed and earn a spot in the Final Four when the eighth-seeded Seawolves travel to Maryland Saturday.

Scouting the Terrapins
Maryland is the nation's lone remaining unbeaten team with a 20-0 record on the year. The Terrapins have 10 wins this season over ranked opponents and a 12-0 mark at home.

Megan Whittle leads Maryland with 65 goals and 78 points, while Tewaaraton finalist Zoe Stukenberg has 71 points. Tewaaraton finalist Nadine Hadnagy is tied for the team lead with 24 caused turnovers.

Series History vs. Maryland
The Seawolves and Terrapins meet Saturday for the fifth time in program history and first time since the NCAA Second Round in 2013. Maryland has taken all four meetings to this point.

Last Time Out: Stony Brook 13, Northwestern 9
Junior Kylie Ohlmiller tallied two goals and four assists as Stony Brook advanced to the NCAA quarterfinals for the first time in program history with a 13-9 win over Northwestern Sunday at LaValle Stadium.

Seawolves Lead Seven National Stat Categories
The Seawolves lead the nation in scoring defense (7.00), scoring margin (9.29), points per game (26.58) and assists per game (10.29) while featuring the nation's leader in assists (Kylie Ohlmiller, 82), points (Kylie Ohlmiller, 157) and goals-against average (Anna Tesoriero, 7.00).

Oh-My-Miller
Junior Kylie Ohlmiller, a Tewaaraton finalist, broke the DIvision I single-season points record in the May 7 win over Bryant, surpassing the mark of 148 set by Maryland's Jen Adams in 2001. Ohlmiller enters Saturday needing two assists to break the single-season mark of 83 set by Northwestern's Hannah Nielsen in 2009.

Ohlmiller leads all active Division I players with 5.39 career points/game. Ohlmiller leads the nation in 2017 in points (157), points per game (7.48), assists (82) and assists per game (3.90).

We're an (All)-American Band
Stony Brook placed four players on the IWLCA All-American lists Wednesday. Juniors Kylie Ohlmiller and Brooke Gubitosi earned first-team honors, while senior Dorrien Van Dyke and freshman Taryn Ohlmiller were selected as third-team honorees.

There's No Place Like Home
The Seawolves have been dominant at LaValle Stadium over the last six seasons, posting a 59-5 record at home (a .922 winning percentage).

Stony Brook went 11-0 at home in 2017 and has won 22 straight games at LaValle Stadium.

All I Do Is Win
The Seawolves have recorded an .864 winning percentage since the beginning of the 2013 season, which ranks third nationally. Stony Brook's 14 losses over that stretch are the third fewest among programs which have fielded a team all five years.

Raising The Bar
The May 5 victory over UNH was Joe Spallina's 100th as head coach of the Seawolves. Stony Brook had 63 wins in its first nine years before Spallina's arrival.

She's a Freshman... And She's a Freshman, Too
The Seawolves' freshmen have combined for 29.5-percent of Stony Brook's goals. Taryn Ohlmiller (62) and Ally Kennedy (38) have tallied 100 of the goals while Erica Shea scored her first career goal May 5.

Brooke, Stony Brook
Junior Brooke Gubitosi is having a career year in 2017, as the defender was named a first-team All-American by the IWLCA Wednesday. Gubitosi has 53 caused turnovers on the season, breaking the program single-season record that had stood since 2003.

Her Name's Keri, She's So Very... Good at Draws
Sophomore Keri McCarthy set the program single-game (13) and single-season (97) draw control records in the May 12 win over Bryant. McCarthy has 106 draw controls on the year.

Next Up: NCAA Semifinals
With a win Saturday, the Seawolves would face either Penn State or Princeton Friday at Gillette Stadium in Foxboro, Massachusetts, in the NCAA Semifinals.
