Connor Kelly Is 'One' Special Player For Defending Champion Maryland
One.
It's a number that is not taken lightly by the University of Maryland men's lacrosse team.
Not only is the goal to finish the season as the nation's top-ranked team, but the player who wears that number traditionally bears significant responsibility for the program.
So, when head coach John Tillman called Connor Kelly during the summer and asked if he wanted to switch his jersey number from 40 to 1, the All-American midfielder embraced the opportunity. Kelly, a senior, is part of a talented cast of returning players for Maryland, which is the defending NCAA Division I national champions.
