ROSEMONT, Ill. – Maryland captured the 2022 Big Ten Men’s Soccer Championship today with a 1-1 draw against Indiana in Bloomington, Ind.
The No. 8 Terrapins (10-2-4) finished the season with a 5-0-3 record in conference play. The title marks Maryland’s third since joining the Big Ten Conference in 2014 and its first since 2016.
The Terrapins fell behind today in the 25th minute, as Indiana’s Ryan Wittenbrink’s right-footed shot found the back of the net. The visitor trailed until the final minutes of the match, when Maryland’s Joshua Bolma found Stefan Copetti in the 87th minute to level the score at 1-1.
By virtue of today’s result, the Terrapins also secure the top seed in the upcoming Big Ten Men’s Soccer Tournament, slated to begin next weekend.
