Terrapin Brew 1/20: A Day To Honor
Celebrating MLK Day with the Terps
🐢 The Official Daily Newsletter For Maryland Athletics
Good morning, Terps! “If you can’t fly then run, If you can’t run then walk, If you can’t walk then crawl, But whatever you do, you have to keep moving forward.” - Martin Luther King, Jr.
Today, we pause to honor a man who moved our country and our society forward in so many ways.
As we celebrate victories, moments and stories in each and every Brew, let us remember those who helped pave the paths before us.
This morning, we hope you enjoy this mini-sized Terrapin Brew. (Think of it as a single shot of the Terps)
We’ll be back with your Venti-sized edition on Tuesday.

🏀 MORE THAN A GAME
The Coretta Scott King Classic is TODAY. The Maryland women's basketball team will play in the inaugural Coretta Scott King Classic with the Terrapins taking on #7 Texas at the Prudential Center in Newark, N.J.
The Coretta Scott King Classic (CSKC) was formed to honor the legacy of Mrs. King and celebrate female empowerment in sports. Check out what Maryland Freshman Guard/Forward Ava Mckennie has to say about the importance of playing in this inaugural event.

🔼 House Defended. There’s something special about the comforts of home.
Once again, the Maryland men’s hoops squad showed that, grinding past visiting Nebraska, 69-66, to improve its record at home to 12-1 this season. The 12 home victories are the most among all Division I teams.
In his 22-point performance, Ja’Kobe Gillespie reached 1,000 career points on a 3-pointer at the end of the first half.
🔼 We’ll Take That W, Thank You. Speaking of defending home turf, the Maryland wrestling squad got in on that action as well.
The Terps dominated the mats on Friday night, rolling past Wisconsin, 24-13, to improve to 3-0 in the Big Ten, marking the best start in conference since joining the league.
