📈 STOCK UP
🔼 Let’s Make It 10. No. 10 Maryland women’s lacrosse is on the road for the first time in three weeks, as they head over to State College to take on the No. 18 Penn State Nittany Lions tonight at 8:00pm ET on the Big Ten Network.
The Terps are looking for their 10th win in a row this season, playing against a Penn State team that sits at 10-4 overall and 2-2 in Big Ten play. Maryland has won 18 of its last 20 meetings with Penn State.
🔼 On Your Left. Track & field has a pair of events on the calendar this weekend, traveling to both the Bucknell Bison Classic and Larry Ellis Invitational.
The Terps are coming off a good weekend at the Lloyd Willis Invitational in Baton Rouge, grabbing a pair of first place finishes, five personal bests, and one season best.
🔼 Go Midwest, Young Terps. Maryland women’s tennis takes on the Big Ten western swing this weekend, with a match at Nebraska on Friday followed by a match at Iowa on Sunday.
The three schools all sit close to each other in the ITA Rankings - the Terps (No. 56) just outrank Iowa (No. 58) and Nebraska (No. 65). That should make for some intense tennis!
🔼 Sharp Terps. Spencer Anderson and Taulia Tagovailoa have been named to the National Football (NFF) Foundation Hampshire Honor Society.
The Hampshire Honor Society recognizes football players who have graduated, are a starter or significant contributor, and achieved a 3.2 cumulative GPA.
🤔 TERPS TRIVIA
Dominant On The Draw. Maryland women’s lacrosse constantly controls the draw - one of the reasons they are among the best teams in the country.
In fact, the Terps have controlled 62.8 percent of draws this season.
Do you know where that ranks among all Division-I schools?
