On August 28, 2026, Maryland Women’s Soccer traveled to Annapolis to meet Navy in a non‑conference showdown that would end with a 2‑0 victory for the Terps.
Early Surge by Navy
Navy struck first, opening the scoring in the seventh minute when a swift free‑kick found the back of the net, followed by a second goal before the 18‑minute mark that put the Mids ahead 2‑0.
Maryland answered quickly, with the first shot of the match finding the net and the team doubling its advantage eleven minutes later, turning the tide of the game.
Despite eight attempts on goal and several multi‑shot sequences, the Terps' attack was met with a series of saves from Navy's goalkeeper, who kept the match within reach until the final whistle.
A Record‑Setting Series
The win extended Maryland's all‑time lead over Navy to 13 wins, five losses and two ties across 20 career meetings, underscoring a long‑standing rivalry.
Looking ahead, the Terps are scheduled to host Old Dominion on September 3 at 7 p.m. in College Park, a game that will be streamed on B1G+ and will mark the next chapter in their season.
Notable performances included first‑start appearances by Faith Luckey, Mia Mitchell and Ava Paolini, while veterans such as Jolie Farmer and Ary Oliver contributed key moments in the second half.
