Field Hockey falls in ACC semifinals

Virginia (13-7) fell to the Maryland Terrapins 5-2 Friday, halting the team's ACC Tournament run in the semifinals.

After falling behind 2-0 early, freshman forward Fenna Breitbarth brought the Cavaliers to within 2-1 with a goal early in the second half.

In the span of just over five minutes, the Terps tacked on three more goals to widen the lead to 5-1. Mia Link scored for Virginia off a short corner as time expired.

Next for Virginia may be the NCAA Tournament. The championship field will be announced Tuesday evening -- Virginia awaits an at-large bid. If the Cavaliers are selected for the Tournament, it will be the team's first appearance since 2001.
