MM 6.3: Maryland men’s soccer announces 2026 schedule

Despite reaching the NCAA Tournament quarterfinals for the first time since 2018, Maryland men’s soccer’s 2025 campaign ended on a disappointing note.

While Maryland was forced to wait another year to pursue the program’s fifth national title, the teams […]

MM 6.2: Dual athlete Bud Coombs enters transfer portal

Cohesion drove Maryland women’s lacrosse in 2026, but glaring inconsistencies killed its title hopes

Despite posting the only spotless record in the nation 13 games into the 2026 season, Maryland women’s lacrosse looked anything but perfect.  Standing middle of the pack nationally in key statistical areas — such as offensive pacing (66th), shooting percentage (58th) and turnover rate (52nd), according to Lacrosse Reference — Maryland didn’t look like a […]

MM 6.1: Maryland football lands new batch of 2027 commitments

With the transfer window coming to a close, Maryland football recruiters have diverted their attention to adding to its 2027 freshman class.

MM 5.29: Maryland baseball continues to lose talent to the transfer portal

Continuity was largely expected to be the silver lining for Maryland baseball after three consecutive disappointing seasons. But days before the transfer portal officially opens, that belief has proven false. Infielder Michael Iannazzo and pitcher Jake Yeager announced Thursday that they are entering the transfer portal, becoming the program’s 11th and 12th departures. The Terps […]

With Maryland men’s lacrosse’s massive senior class gone for good, head coach John Tillman looks to make a splash in the transfer portal.

MM 5.20: 5 Maryland baseball players earn Big Ten honors

Maryland baseball’s full-team effort nullifies Penn State, 12-2, in 7-inning beatdown

For weeks, Maryland baseball head coach Matt Swope chalked up messy conference losses to struggles on the pitching staff.  “I think the pitching injuries alone cost us at least five wins,” he said after the Terps used seven pitchers against Georgetown Tuesday.  However, it was starting pitcher Cristofer Cespedes who turned the tide in Maryland’s […]

MM 5.15: Maryland football adds transfer running back Terrez Worthy

Maryland football’s backfield was the conference’s worst in 2025 — ranking last with 1,252 rushing yards and only 305 rush attempts.

After bringing in USC running back Harry Dalton III in February, Maryland furthered its rushing depth on Thursday. Senior […]
