Maryland volleyball takes down Howard, 3-0, in season opener

It wasn’t always smooth sailing, but Maryland women’s volleyball got it done in its season opener. Despite brief charges from Howard, the Terps rarely wavered and cruise to a three-set victory in the nation’s capital. Howard set the tone early and took the lead for most of the tightly-contested first set.  Alexys James sparked the […]

New Terps power No. 13 Maryland field hockey to 3-0 victory over Drexel

Maryland field hockey doesn’t lose the season opener. In fact, it hasn’t happened since 1996.  The No. 13-ranked Terps made sure that streak continued on Friday as they cruised past Drexel in the first game of the Conference Cup, 3-0. “I think we were a little bit anxious at the beginning. I think our skills […]

Maryland football has a top-tier trio of inside linebackers

With Maryland football’s season opener, we now turn our attention to focus on its linebacker corps. Make sure to read our previous analyses on the Terps in the quarterback, running back, wide receiver, tight end, offensive line and defensive line rooms. Maryland’s situation at off-ball linebacker appears far more secure than it did at the […]

Maryland women’s soccer stymied by Navy, 2-0, for first loss of 2026

Maryland women’s soccer came into its matchup against Navy riding high off a late comeback that forced a draw against Virginia Tech in the Terps’ last matchup. After falling behind by two goals for the second straight game, lightning would not strike twice, as the Terps’ offense and defense simultaneously faltered. Those performances led to […]

Maryland volleyball season preview

“We expect to be in the Big Ten Tournament, and we want to be there for an extended period,” Maryland volleyball head coach Adam Hughes said in early August at Big Ten Volleyball Media Day.

Maryland football’s defensive line is ready to take charge in 2026

Testudo Times’ position previews for Maryland football have covered the program’s quarterback, running back, wide receiver, tight end and offensive line rooms. With the offense complete, we turn to the defense and begin with the trenches, the foundation of what the Terps will hope to do on defense this season. As Walt Whitman undoubtedly would […]

Maryland field hockey 2026 season preview

No. 13 Maryland field hockey has had plenty of incredible seasons throughout its illustrious history. 2025 wasn’t one of them.

In postseason play, the Terps […]

MM 8.25: Maryland men’s lacrosse hires Ryan Moran as OC

Despite leaving his head coaching post at UMBC under less-than-favorable circumstances, Ryan Moran has found his footing. The former Maryland men’s lacrosse offensive coordinator has reportedly been re-hired by head coach John Tillman to take up his old post for the 2027 season. Moran now returns to College Park to fill in the vacancy left […]

Maryland men’s soccer beats New Haven, 3-2, after offensive explosion

The last time Maryland men’s soccer stepped foot on Ludwig Field was to take on the Washington Huskies in the quarterfinals of the College Cup. The Terps left in disbelief after suffering a shocking 3-1 defeat on their home turf that abruptly ended their season.  Maryland men’s soccer looked to flush the bad taste out […]

Maryland women’s soccer storms back late to secure 2-2 draw against Virginia Tech

Maryland women’s soccer struggled to create any offense for over two-thirds of its Sunday night clash against Virginia Tech, culminating in a deficit that reached as many as two goals.  It looked like the hill would be too much to climb for the Terps, but Jolie Farmer came to the rescue yet again. The star […]

Maryland football’s tight ends could be the key to offensive success

Recently, Testudo Times has taken in-depth looks into Maryland football’s quarterback, running back and wide receiver rooms. As the season inches closer, we now turn to examine the Terps’ final — and perhaps most important — skill position group, the tight ends. In 2025, Maryland’s tight end room had a smaller impact than some expected. […]

Her goal scoring started early as she scored […]

Following a strong 2025 season fueled by a veteran and versatile roster, Maryland men’s soccer entered the 2026 season with questions surrounding which of its 14 newcomers would step up. That question was answered emphatically by freshman Said El Eyssami, who found nylon twice in the Terps’ 2-1 opening victory against the Pittsburgh Panthers Thursday […]

Who will take the spotlight in Maryland football’s new-look wide receiver room?

In the past few weeks, Testudo Times has taken in-depth looks into Maryland football’s quarterback and running back rooms. As the season inches closer, we now turn to examine the Terps’ drastically altered wideout landscape. Maryland football’s offensive miscues were a glaring issue last season despite a veteran-laden wide receiver room — seniors Shaleak Knotts, […]

MM 8.20: Maryland men’s soccer signs midfielder Noah Gassan

In addition to a massive initial 13-player recruiting haul, Maryland men’s soccer head coach Sasho Cirovski appears to have added yet another promising young talent.
