MM 4.27: Maryland softball wins second straight Big Ten Series
After a difficult stretch of the season for Maryland softball that eliminated it from Big Ten tournament contention early, the Terps found a way to turn the corner right before the end. Despite falling to the Spartans 4-3 in extra innings Friday, Maryland found its groove, winning 3-0 Saturday and sounding off with a 7-2 […]
Maryland baseball tumbles in 13-1 run-rule loss to Michigan State in seven innings
Maryland baseball’s first two pitchers of the day came and went after only two-thirds of an inning each, allowing a combined nine hits and 11 runs by the bottom of the second. Ryan Bailey became the Terps’ second bullpen call of the day. Bailey didn’t aid in the hit-fest though, as Michigan State’s Adam Broski […]
Last-second score dashes No. 2-seed Maryland women’s lacrosse’s Big Ten title hopes in 8-7 defeat to No. 1-seed Northwestern
Despite playing sloppily for the majority of the contest, No. 2-seed Maryland women’s lacrosse found its way into overtime of the Big Ten championship. But with less than a second left in the period, defensively-minded midfielder Annabel Child rounded a pick and sent a long-range sidearm snipe into the back of the net to dash […]
Maryland football alum Shaleak Knotts signed by Minnesota Vikings
Among a balanced wide receiver room, Shaleak Knotts was Maryland football’s breakout star in 2025. While Knotts wasn’t selected in the NFL Draft, the Minnesota Vikings signed the Terps’ top weapon just minutes after the conclusion of the three-day event. Knotts hauled in 161 receiving yards as a junior, but the departure of several key […]
Maryland football alum Alan Herron signed by New Orleans Saints as UDFA
Maryland football has had another player find a home in the immediate aftermath of the draft. Offensive tackle Alan Herron has signed with the New Orleans Saints. The Westmoreland, Jamaica, native spent two seasons as a starter at Division II Shorter University before transferring to the Terps ahead of the 2024 season. He became the […]
Maryland football alum Octavian Smith Jr. signed by Baltimore Ravens
With three former Terp wideouts declaring for the 2026 NFL Draft, wide receiver Octavian Smith Jr. was the first to sign a professional contract, agreeing to terms with the Baltimore Ravens Saturday night.

No. 3-seed Maryland men’s lacrosse fends off No. 6-seed Rutgers with 13-10 win, advances to Big Ten semifinals
Set offense has been hard to come by for No. 3-seed Maryland men’s lacrosse this season. The Terps have struggled to break down some of the nation’s elite defenses, leading to five single-digit scoring performances. While that trend continued in Saturday’s Big Ten Tournament quarterfinal clash against No. 6-seed Rutgers, Maryland found goals through other […]
Maryland baseball’s bats cool off in 12-4 defeat to Michigan State
After its first Friday night conference victory, Maryland baseball failed to secure the series win against Michigan State on Saturday. The Terps went from outhitting the Spartans 17-12 in Game 1 to being outhit 12-9 in Game 2. Maryland’s loss was fueled by errors and strikeouts as it fell to Michigan State, 12-4, to cut […]
Tracking Maryland football’s undrafted free agents after the 2026 NFL Draft
Maryland football saw just one player selected in the 2026 NFL Draft — its fewest in a draft since 2021. Safety Jalen Huskey was the sole Terp taken off the board — he was selected with the final pick of the third round by the Jacksonville Jaguars. Six of seven players that participated in the […]
Takeaways from Maryland football’s 2026 Spring Showcase
In lieu of Maryland football’s conventional spring scrimmage, head coach Mike Locksley opted to run practice drills at the team’s annual Spring Showcase. The switch comes after programs across the country have shied away from the traditional spring game due to the inherent injury risk. Instead, the Terps opted to run 7-on-7 reps that featured […]

Maryland football alum Jalen Huskey drafted in third round of NFL Draft by Jacksonville Jaguars

Coming out of the half with a five-goal lead, No. 2-seed Maryland women’s lacrosse looked set to cruise to an easy win in the Big Ten Tournament semifinals. But after a disastrous second half, the Terps found themselves locked in a stalemate and headed into their first overtime period of the season. Then, freshman Lyla […]
Thank you and farewell, Testudo Times
A message from managing editor Matt Germack As I get ready to graduate next month, today is my final day at Testudo Times. That’s probably a good thing for Maryland athletics. I’ve been an editor here for two 4-8 football seasons and a 12-21 basketball season; the Crab Five exploded during my semester abroad in […]

Big Ten Tournament quarterfinals preview: No. 3-seed Maryland men’s lacrosse vs. No. 6-seed Rutgers
While No. 3-seed Maryland men’s lacrosse’s defense was steady during conference play — it held four of five Big Ten foes to single-digit goals — its offense let it down on numerous occasions. Saturday was no different. The Terps limited No. 1-seed Johns Hopkins to just nine goals, including one third-quarter score. Maryland’s sturdy defensive […]
MM 4.24: 5-star class of 2026 guard Trinity Jones commits to Maryland women’s basketball
On Thursday, Maryland women’s basketball head coach Brenda Frese went out and landed a key prospect in the form of 6-foot-1 shooting guard Trinity Jones, who 247Sports’ composite rankings have as the seventh-best prospect in the class of 2026 — ahead of soon-to-be Terp Jordyn Jackson.

MM 4.23: 6 Maryland men’s lacrosse players earn Big Ten honors
Amid its turbulent season, No. 11 Maryland men’s lacrosse has had some standout performances from its graduating class. Those players were recognized on Wednesday, as six Terps received Big Ten honors. While Henry Dodge doesn’t play the flashiest position, Maryland’s leading faceoff specialist has been arguably the team’s most important piece. The Vermont transfer sits […]
No. 2-seed Maryland women’s lacrosse ekes out 10-9 win over No. 7-seed Ohio State in Big Ten Tournament quarterfinals
Down in the final seconds of the game up one goal, No. 2-seed Maryland women’s lacrosse was in danger of fumbling a three-goal lead and sending the game to overtime. But as its defense collapsed and left No. 7-seed Ohio State’s Zoe Coleman wide open in front of the goal, JJ Suriano made the most […]
MM 4.22: Maryland women’s basketball adds guard Chloe Sotell via transfer portal
Brenda Frese’s second portal addition is a 6-foot guard with College Park ties. Maryland women’s basketball is adding sophomore Chloe Sotell to its 2026-27 roster, the program announced Tuesday. Sotell spent this past season at Missouri and two seasons ago at Pepperdine. If her last name sounds familiar to Terps’ basketball fans, that’s because her […]
