Senior All-American Carissa Messimer took a pass from sophomore Colleen Barbieri and scored in the fifth minute of overtime to give Maryland a 2-1 win over William & Mary in the first round of the NCAA field hockey tournament.

Messimer's goal, which ended a long afternoon of rain-soaked play at Foreman Field in Norfolk, Va., atoned for the forward's missed penalty stroke in the first half that kept William & Mary (12-9) within a goal at halftime. The Tribe got the tying goal in the 61st minute on Kate Baird's penalty corner.

The Terps (17-4) advanced to today's second round, where they'll meet Old Dominion.

Salisbury 6, New England 1: The Sea Gulls (16-2) advanced to the Division III quarterfinals with an easy victory over the visiting Nor'easters (16-3).

Sophomore Erin Budd and junior Lindsey Elliott each scored two goals for Salisbury, which will face Cortland at home today at 1 p.m. Jess Manzone and Jill Cressor also scored for the Sea Gulls.

Rowan 4, McDaniel 1: The Green Terror fell behind 2-0 in the first 15 minutes and never recovered, losing to the top-ranked Profs in the second round of the NCAA Division III playoffs in Glassboro, N.J.

McDaniel goalie Becky Arnold (Francis Scott Key) made nine saves and set a single-season school record with a .652 goals against average. The Green Terror finished 19-3, setting a school record for wins.
