What else do we have brewing this morning?

⚽️ Earned the draw
🏈 No fly zone
​🐢 And much, much more!

📈 STOCK UP

🔼 No Fly Zone. Don’t try throwing the ball against the Terps — the Maryland defense leads the nation in interceptions this season with eight!

🔼 Late Heroics. No. 23 Maryland men’s soccer kept its unbeaten streak alive on Tuesday night, scoring in the 86th minute at Penn State to earn a 2-2 draw against the Nittany Lions.

🔼 Top Terp. Maryland women’s soccer’s Mckinley Heaven is the Solomon Eye Physicians & Surgeons Terp of the Week!

In her first two career starts, Heaven scored her first two career goals, both the game-winning goals for Maryland women's soccer in a pair of Big Ten wins, beating Indiana, 2-1 and Purdue, 2-1, giving Maryland back-to-back conference wins for the first time since 2022. Both game-winning goals came in the second half, proving to be clutch in helping the Terps to a 6-4 start, marking their most wins in a season since 2019!

How To Rev Up Your Heart Health

Your heart deserves a workout, too. Just 30–60 minutes of daily activity—like walking, cycling, or strength training—can boost circulation, lower cholesterol and blood pressure, help you cope with daily stressors, and keep you strong for life. Discover how simple moves make a big impact.

🐢 ONE BIG THING

🔼 Defensive Dominance. The Terps’ 2025 defense has been a statistical juggernaut through its first four wins. When looking at just about any defensive stat, the famous M-Bar logo can be found at or near the top. 

“We've been hitting on all cylinders,” junior defensive lineman Dillan Fontus said. “Our backs have been playing complimentary defense for the front to get home.”
