The Terps have a 16-game win streak against non-conference opponents, the longest active streak in the country.

🔼 B1G Challenge. No. 4 Maryland field hockey travels to Durham, N.C., this weekend for a pair of top-10 matchups as part of the B1G/ACC Challenge!

The Terps take on No. 8 Boston College today at 3 p.m. before taking on host No. 5 Duke on Sunday at 3 p.m.

🔼 Home Cookin’. Fresh off its 6-0 win over Saint Francis on Monday, Maryland men’s soccer is back at home again tomorrow for a 7 p.m. match against Pacific.

The Tigers are 1-2 on the season, picking up their first win in their last match against Utah Tech, 2-1.

🔼 Bound For Baltimore. Maryland volleyball continues its road swing to start the season this weekend, playing three matches in Baltimore as part of the UMBC Tournament.

The Terps play Old Dominion today, William & Mary tomorrow and UMBC on Sunday.

🔼 Ready For The Mania. The University of Maryland volleyball program announced that its match against defending national champion No. 2 Penn State on Sunday, October 5, will be played on the Xfinity Center main court and has just been announced that the match will be aired on the Big Ten Network at 4 p.m.!

🔼 One Short. Maryland women’s soccer fell on the road at James Madison on Thursday, 1-0.

JMU got on the board in the 23rd minute as Ginny Lackey snuck a goal past the Maryland defense. Terps goalkeeper Faith Luckey faced eight shots and made three saves in the first half, but the Dukes took a 1-0 lead into the break. 

🐢 ONE BIG THING

🔼 Uniform Swag. Following a bold initiative started four seasons ago, 33 Maryland student-athletes will don "GRADUATE" patches on their uniforms in 2025-26, recognizing their accomplishment of receiving an undergraduate degree from Maryland or an other four-year institution as they compete for the Terrapins this year.
