CARY, N.C. -- It was the briefest of moments. It lasted, at best, maybe a few seconds. But the two men involved will never forget it. Maryland's soccer team was preparing to take the field for the second half of its NCAA semifinal yesterday against Southern Methodist when Terps coach Sasho Cirovski caught the eye of Jason Garey, his senior captain. Garey was the last man to leave the Terps' locker room. "You're due, kid," Cirovski said. "You're due." Garey smiled. "I know," he said, and left it at that.

In Maryland's two NCAA tournament men's soccer games this season, forward Jason Garey has found a defender on his back, kicking at his ankles or banging into his knees almost every time he's tried to create a scoring chance for himself. As the Terps' all-time leading scorer, opponents have focused on Garey and he's been held without a goal in the tournament. Nonetheless, the striker is proving to be a valuable commodity by taking the attention of defenders away from his teammates, who responded with four goals in the two games.

COLLEGE PARK -- While Ludwig Field has been a virtual house of horrors for most opposing teams, No.5 Indiana marched in and didnt flinch, scoring three second-half goals to salvage a 3-3 tie last night. Jason Garey scored two first-half goals, including one on a spectacular bicycle kick, but the No.3 Terps could not hold the early lead and gave up the tying goal with five seconds left in front of 6,203 spectators the largest crowd to ever watch a mens soccer game in College Park. The Terps (13-3-1)

COLLEGE PARK -- Ludwig Field has been a virtual house of horrors for most opposing teams, but No. 5 Indiana marched in last night and didn't flinch, scoring three second-half goals to salvage a 3-3 tie with No. 3 Maryland. Despite playing with a dislocated shoulder, Jason Garey scored two first-half goals, one on a spectacular bicycle kick, but the Terps could not hold the lead and gave up the tying goal with just five seconds left in front of 6,203 - the largest crowd to ever watch a men's soccer game in College Park.

The Maryland men's soccer team's quest to capture its first national championship in almost four decades could well hinge on the right foot of Jason Garey. This year, the Terps are 11-0 in games in which Garey has scored a goal, and coach Sasho Cirovski hopes that kind of effort can carry his squad all the way to December's College Cup in Cary, N.C. Tonight, No. 3 Maryland (13-3) will face one of its biggest tests of the season when it takes on visiting, No. 5 Indiana (10-1-5), which has won the past two national titles.

COLLEGE PARK - It took only 1:32 for Maryland's men's soccer team to make Sunday's offensive goose egg as distant as the field where it was laid. Senior forward Jason Garey converted on that chance early, and the No. 14-ranked Terps tacked on two more first-half goals to run away from No. 4 Santa Clara, 3-1, in front of 2,827 at Ludwig Field. At the start of the week, the Terps fell at UCLA, then ranked No. 9, and didn't register a shot on net. But in yesterday's home opener, the Terps got some redemption against another highly ranked California team.
