Before we get into the Dropsie Awards for Baseball, we first need to report that after nine years at the helm of Maryland Baseball, Terry Rupp resigned today.  Rupp had a career mark of 227-271 over that span, with an ACC record of 61-183.  As bad as it sounds Rupp did make some progress during [...]

I will tell you what, the women’s version is going to be a tough act to follow up on.  Much like the Terps Football team, the Maryland Lacrosse team had quite a roller coaster ride of a season.  I am going to take a quick peak at the high points and low points of the [...]

Welcome everyone to the first year of the Dropsie* Awards (*name pending).  With the ending of the Woman’s Lacrosse season we have reached the end of what we can possibly write about for the 2008-2009 school year.  So with no where else to turn, and still needing to cover two more months until Football opens [...]

Well the dream season for the 2009 Women’s Lacrosse team came to an end on Friday night, just shy of the Championship game in Towson’s Johnny Unitas Stadium.  The Lady Terps fell to the Tarheels of UNC 8-7.  The 7 goal total was a season low for the Terps.  Though calling a 21-1 season a failure is [...]

First and foremost here, there is a much more important and relevant post below this one, so make sure you check it out.  But I wanted to write this morning (I even got up early to do this, what dedication!).  Being that this is Memorial Day both of us who keep this site going are going [...]

Just when I thought it was safe to forget about this guy and let him go, Maryland pops back up in conversation of schools Lance Stephenson is considering.  According to Lance’s Dad, he is down to Maryland and Arizona.  Of course there is not going to be a decision any time soon as Lance is waiting until [...]

The Terps and West Virginia Mountaineers have added two more future game to the rivalry.  As of now it is only a home and home series with the Terps off to Morgantown in 2012, and WVU traveling to Byrd Stadium in 2013.  They are all ready set to face off in 2010 and 2011.  I [...]

Former Maryland Center Braxton Dupree is going to joining Pat Kennedy a little closer to home at Towson.  Kennedy seems to think Braxton has “the whole package”.  Kennedy is very excited to have a former ACC player available to join his squad in 2010.  Another year in the weight room and practicing in a how [...]

It was a mixed bag of results for both the Men’s and Women’s Lacrosse Teams yesterday, as both teams took on Syracuse.  Let’s start with the Men.  If watching starting goalie Brian Phipps tear his ACL while jumping up and down after protesting a missed call.  That should have been a sign of the way [...]

I have two words for you….NEW COKE.  That is what I would like to say to whoevers idea it was to implement the ban on the BYOB policy.  I was speechless looking at those overhead shots.  SPEECHLESS!  We used to go to the Preakness at 6:00 am so that we could be there when the gates [...]
