🔼 Breaking Ground. The University of Maryland is breaking ground on the Barry P. Gossett Basketball Performance Center today!

The new practice facility will help provide a transformative experience for Maryland hoopers, and supply men’s and women’s basketball the infrastructure they need to continue striving for championships.

🔼 For The Glory. The 2023 World Lacrosse Men’s Championship are off and running, with five former Terps suiting up for Team USA - Jesse Bernhardt, Matt Dunn, Michael Ehrhardt, Connor Kelly and Matt Rambo.

The Championship is being held in San Diego until July 1, with 30 teams taking part in over 100 games in a 10-day span.

You can watch every game on ESPN+.
