An ugly second half was too much to overcome for Missy Doherty's squad against a talented Johns Hopkins team.

Even with a career-high game from Maria Auth, Penn State couldn't come up with the win against the Scarlet Knights.

"This senior class is very special...To have them stick with our program and keep working hard and beat Maryland twice in one season was pretty remarkable."

The Nittany Lions won big against the No. 9 Maryland Terrapins. Kristin O'Neill and Mary Muldoon both finished the game with five goals each.

A hat-trick at the end of the second for Maria Auth was not enough for the Nittany Lions to catch up to the Blue Jays.

A five-goal run for the Buckeyes down the stretch was enough to hand Penn State its second straight loss.
