Northwestern's lacrosse dynasty is over, courtesy of a stunning comeback by Maryland.

Maryland won its 10th NCAA women's lacrosse title Sunday, rallying from a six-goal deficit to defeat the five-time defending champions 13-11.

The Terrapins (22-1) earned their first title since 2001 and preserved their record of seven straight titles, set from 1995-2001. Maryland also ended Northwestern's run of 23 consecutive tournament wins.

The game was played before 9,782 fans, the largest crowd to watch a women's lacrosse event in United States history. The previous record was 8,762, for the semifinal round Friday night.

Down 6-0 with eight and a half minutes gone and 8-3 midway through the first half, Maryland pulled even at halftime and took its first lead when Caitlyn McFadden scored from the free position early in the second half to make it 9-8.

After going more than 27 and a half minutes without scoring a goal, Northwestern (20-2) got two in a row to pull into at 10 with 12:03 remaining.

Brandi Jones put the Terrapins back in front with 9:51 left, scoring in front off a fine pass from McFadden.
