📈 STOCK UP

🔼 We’re No. 1. In a battle between the two top-ranked teams in the country, No. 1 Maryland women’s lacrosse came out on top at No. 2 Michigan, handing the Wolverines their first loss of the season, 8-6.

The win was the Terps’ fifth of the season over a ranked opponent, and second over a No. 2-ranked team, including a March 10 win over then-No. 2 James Madison.

🔼 Comeback Complete. Down 10-7 heading into the fourth quarter Sunday at No. 4 Penn State, No. 12 Maryland men’s lacrosse outscored the Nittany Lions 6-1 in the final period, winning 13-11, its fifth ranked win of the season.

Luke Wierman won 11-of-13 face-offs in the second half to turn the momentum toward the Terps, and Jack Koras poured in four goals to lead the scoring output.

🔼 Wyche’s Weekend. Despite dropping two-of-three to No. 22 Penn State over the weekend, Maryland softball’s Courtney Wyche put together a performance for the ages against the Nittany Lions.

In Maryland’s 2-0 win on Friday, Wyche tossed a shutout and struck out 19, the most in the NCAA this season. Then in Sunday’s rubber match, Wyche tossed a 12-inning complete game, striking out another 17 Nittany Lions in a 1-0 loss.

🔼 Broken Records. No one in Maryland track and field history has ever thrown a javelin further than Mekhi Abbott — his 60.98m throw at the Florida Relays is a new school record!

The Terps received several other standout performances, too — Eric Albright’s 1:49.08 in the men’s 800m is the second-best mark in school history, while Armanie Coleman and Victoria Teasley put themselves fifth and ninth all-time, respectively, in the women’s 100m.

🔼 Start Another Streak. Maryland baseball dropped its first Big Ten series since April 2021 this past weekend, dropping two-of-three at Michigan.

The Terps scored nine runs in the top of the ninth inning in Friday’s series opener to steal an 11-9 win before falling in Saturday and Sunday’s contests.

Maryland had won 23 consecutive conference series leading up to its trip to Ann Arbor, and 15 consecutive weekend series overall.

🔼 Back Home Soon. Maryland women’s tennis dropped a pair of matches on the road this weekend — 6-1 at No. 12 Ohio State on Friday and 5-2 at Penn State on Sunday.

Selma Cadar won her singles match against the Buckeyes to earn the Terps’ lone point in that matchup, while Minorka Miranda and Kallista Liu both won singles matches against the Nittany Lions.
