The Terps went 5-0 against ranked opponents in 2025 and looked to replicate that success Saturday night against No. 9 High Point. After a grueling 80 minutes, […]

It wasn’t always smooth sailing, but Maryland women’s volleyball got it done in its season opener.

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.

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.
