PISCATAWAY, N.J. (October 18, 2015) - Rutgers field hockey wrapped up its home schedule on Sunday with a Senior Day matchup against No. 7 Maryland. The Terrapins earned a 4-0 victory in the game, improving to 13-3, 6-0 Big Ten.

Prior to the game, Rutgers honored a four member senior class: Katie Champion, Carley Hawkins, Nicole Imbriaco¸ and Ali Stever. The senior quartet combined for 229 games in a Scarlet Knight uniform, with a total of 40 goals and 102 points between them. The team also recognized redshirt junior Alyssa Bull, an original member of that class who will return next season as a redshirt senior.

"This is a really special group for me," head coach Meredith Civico said. "They've been with me through my first four years as the head coach here. I can't say enough about them with regard to the culture and the atmosphere they've created for our program. They are four really incredible people and I'm lucky to have a group like them leading the team."



Maryland completed all of its scoring in the first half. Welma Luis opened the scoring 2:15 into the game and completed a hat trick to lead the Terps. Carrie Hanks also tallied for Maryland.

The Scarlet Knights regrouped at halftime and had a strong second stanza, holding Maryland off the scoreboard in the frame, holding a 2-1 advantage on corners, and were even in shots 6-6.

For the game, goalkeeper Shevaun Hayes made four saves.

RU will conclude the season with three road contests. Next weekend the team has one game, a matchup against American on Friday at 3 p.m.
