No. 20 Maryland women’s basketball head coach Brenda Frese often says life in the Big Ten is about managing the ups and downs that conference play presents. The Terps have served as a prime example of that in the last month. After sliding into a four-game losing streak in late January — where they looked […]
While No. 1 Maryland men’s lacrosse is historically a defensive powerhouse, the Terps haven’t often been known for overwhelming offensive units. But this year’s attacking group appears capable of breaking that standard just one game into the 2026 season. Despite a slow opening quarter, the Terps poured it on Loyola Maryland on Saturday in a […]
Maryland men’s basketball is winners of back-to-back games for the first time since November. The Terps pulled off a shocker over an 18-5 Iowa squad that beat them by 19 points the first time around. They not only beat the Hawkeyes, 77-70, but it didn’t look fluky — they truly looked like the better team […]
Jalen Huskey and Alan Herron have been the two former Maryland football players generating the most buzz in professional circles, and that buzz has now translated into invited to the NFL Scouting Combine for each. Huskey was named second-team All Big Ten with the Terps last season, finishing with four interceptions and anchoring a secondary […]

When Maryland men’s basketball head coach Buzz Williams spoke to the media ahead of the Terps’ season opener, he made a controversial statement about his team’s outlook. “We probably lose a game or two before Christmas every year that we shouldn’t, and we probably win a game or two after Valentine’s Day that we shouldn’t,” […]
Maryland men’s basketball returns to Xfinity Center with its first road Big Ten win of the season under its belt.

Frustration and inconsistencies lined Maryland baseball’s 2025 campaign. The Terps finished 27-29 (12-18 Big Ten), missing out on the Big Ten tournament and NCAA postseason play. In 2024, the team finished with a 34-22 record and was near contention. Head coach Matt Swope and his staff are now aiming to return to that caliber. Their […]
Last offseason, No. 20 Maryland women’s basketball seemed to get its much-needed big through the transfer portal — Gracie Merkle. Merkle spent her sophomore season at Penn State, but opted to upgrade to a more established Big Ten program. Then, she had a change of heart. After she was announced to join Maryland, she asked […]
No. 1 Maryland men’s lacrosse attacker Leo Johnson was named Big Ten Offensive Player of the Week Tuesday after his stellar performance against Loyola Maryland on Saturday. The Yale transfer led all players with five scores, and he did all of his damage on five shots. Johnson also added an assist in the Terps’ highest-scoring […]
Malik Washington’s emergence in 2025 led to Maryland football’s QB2, QB3 and QB4 — Justyn Martin, Khristian Martin and Roman Jensen — to enter this year’s transfer portal. But the Terps finally have an answer at backup signal caller. Kent State’s Devin Kargman has joined Maryland via the transfer portal. ESPN’s Max Olson had the […]
Maryland men’s basketball earned just its second conference victory Sunday afternoon at Minnesota with a win that was decided in the final minutes. Thanks to some clutch shooting from Diggy Coit and well-positioned defense from head coach Buzz Williams’ squad, the Terps ostensibly returned to College Park with some progress. Now, Maryland will look to […]
While plenty of Maryland men’s basketball fans were adamant that head coach Buzz Williams needed to add pieces through the portal, few of them would have expected or wanted Williams to go in the direction he seems to be going. Maryland will host 25-year-old Kyree Walker for a visit Wednesday, as per the player himself. […]
Maryland men’s basketball’s only Big Ten win of the season came against Penn State — a team that currently sits at 10-14. Minnesota also sits below .500, but it was riding the high of one of its most electric wins in recent program history: a 76-73 victory over No. 10 Michigan State. But the Terps […]
There’s only one player Maryland men’s basketball is going to lean on when it desperately needs a win. Minnesota led the Terps by six points with just under 10 minutes to go Sunday afternoon in Minneapolis. That’s when Diggy Coit decided he wasn’t letting his team lose a fifth straight game. The graduate guard — […]
Maryland men’s basketball is in Minneapolis taking on Minnesota, looking to avoid a five-game losing streak — or at least for a competitive game.

WASHINGTON — In the world of college athletics, it’s fairly rare to see spectators who aren’t fans of the home or away team. College sports are identity-driven; the draw is a tangible connection with the school one grew up around or got their degree from. But flashes of Maryland red appeared throughout the crowd at […]
Maryland women’s basketball dominated Nebraska from the first whistle to the last on Saturday afternoon en route to a 78-60 victory, its second straight after losing four in a row.

No. 1 Maryland men’s lacrosse’s transfer class was talked about as the best in the nation, and rightfully so. The Terps brought three of the top-five pieces alongside defensive starter Mikey Alexander. While it took that new group a bit of time to adjust in their first game in a Maryland uniform, it was only […]
Over the last few weeks, No. 22 Maryland women’s basketball has had a tendency to allow the opposing leading scorer to dominate. On Saturday, that wasn’t the case. Britt Prince came into Saturday averaging 18 points per game, but the Terps’ defense held firm. “Defensively, we were really good. Locked in on Britt, making her […]
Maryland men’s basketball is quickly starting to become a get-right opponent in the Big Ten. No. 12 Purdue had lost three straight games before playing Maryland.

During the second quarter of No. 22 Maryland women’s basketball’s clash with No. 12 Michigan State, backup point guard Kyndal Walker crossed the halfcourt line. She picked her head up, scanned the Spartans’ defense and identified Kennedy Blair tentatively stepping toward her, her body perpendicular to the rim. Walker attacked, blowing past Blair before she […]
The start to No. 7 Maryland women’s lacrosse’s season could not have been more different than its opener a year ago. The Terps were in the driver’s seat for the entirety of their matchup against No. 13 Syracuse and never looked back. In 2025, Maryland looked hopeless in a 16-9 loss to Syracuse, fielding a […]
Amid its three-year championship drought, No. 1 Maryland men’s lacrosse enters the 2026 season with a target on its back. The two-time NCAA Tournament runners-up are the top ranked team in the preseason poll for the first time in over a decade. Even with its storied success under John Tillman — the Terps have nine […]
