MM 5.1: Maryland tennis makes return to NCAA Tournament Friday

This is the Maryland Minute, a short story followed by a roundup of Terps-related news.

After 15 long years, Maryland tennis is back on the national stage—and they're not just showing up, they're making history. The Terps head into the NCAA tournament ranked No. 33 in the ITA team rankings, their highest spot since 2023. Individual standouts Oli, G, and DC also earned spots on the national individual awards list, proving this team has depth and star power. The first test comes Friday at 1 p.m. against South Carolina, and you can catch all the action live. It's a moment Terps fans have been waiting for, and the team is ready to compete.

Elsewhere in Maryland sports, the men's lacrosse team suffered a tough 8-6 loss to Penn State in the Big Ten semifinals, putting their NCAA tournament hopes in serious jeopardy. With six losses on the season, history isn't on their side—no team with that record has made the tournament since 2019. Meanwhile, the men's golf team tees off at the Big Ten championships, looking to make their mark on the conference stage.

On the recruiting trail, men's basketball is targeting four-star class of 2027 point guard Tyrone Jamison Jr., with top programs like LSU and Oklahoma State also in the mix. And in a surprising stat, Maryland quarterback Malik Washington led all of Division I football in passes dropped by his targets last season—a stat that highlights both his arm talent and the need for more reliable hands. Finally, former Terps strength coach Steve Gephardt is heading south to join Georgia Tech's staff, bringing his expertise to The Flats.
