🤔 TERPS TRIVIA

Locked Down. Maryland women’s basketball is allowing 63.7 points per game this season.

🐢 ONE BIG THING

🔼 Ground Breaker. Sherae McNeal grew up in Columbia, Md., played on one of the best high school soccer teams ever at Oakland Mills High School, and enrolled at Maryland where she became part of the first Maryland women’s soccer team in 1987.

Was that enough? Nope!

McNeal decided during her senior year at Maryland that she wanted to attend law school, passed the bar in 1991, and has been practicing law ever since.
