🔼 AD’s Desk.Dear Terp Nation,

The spring semester here started last week and it's great to have our students back on campus. That energy was on full display as our Men's Basketball team beat #17 Wisconsin in front of a jam-packed Gold Rush home crowd at XFINITY Center. The men are back in the polls, ranked #18 in this week's AP Poll. And our Women's Basketball team is ranked #16 headed towards the madness of March.”

🐢 ONE BIG THING

🔼 Enjoying The Game. Jay Young just wants to play ball. 

Maryland’s 6-foot-2, 180-pound guard is playing at his fifth school and is simply focused on playing basketball. His journey is unlike many others, but his experience on the court and in different locker room settings allows him to lead the Terps on and off the court. 

Terps head coach Kevin Willard regards Young as one of the best additions he brought to College Park through the portal during the offseason.
