Quarterfinal recap:
Rutgers > UPenn, Final: 11-9
Cornell > Delaware, Final: 10-8

🐢 Maryland is good... really good... like really really good
Maryland defeated Virginia (the reigning back-to-back national champions) 18-9 in the quarterfinals, this tweet from The Crease Dive seems pretty accurate.
Congratulations to the University of Maryland on winning the 2022 National Championship
