Maryland sports are still undefeated

With fall sports in almost in full swing, Maryland’s teams still haven’t lost a single game. Through a collective 10 contests, the Terps are undefeated at 9-0-1.

Every team but football has played and won so far this fall. Volleyball and women’s soccer account for three wins each, while No. 6 field hockey is 1-0 and No. 6 men’s soccer is 2-0.

Volleyball swept its first weekend of competition, going 3-0 at the Maryland Invite. The Terps have another tournament scheduled for the weekend, as they head to Lynchburg, Virginia, to play Liberty, Elon and Furman in the Liberty Invitational.

Women’s soccer’s early strides are the most impressive, already matching the team’s win total from last year. After finishing 3-15-1 last season, Ray Leone and his No. 25 recruiting class are off to a hot start, sitting at 3-0-1. The team’s back in action on Thursday at Ludwig Field against Richmond at 7 p.m.

The Terps’ two top-10 teams are playing up to expectations, but each have a tough weekend ahead.

No. 6 field hockey took its only contest so far, winning its home opener against Saint Joseph’s. They hit the road for the Big Ten/ACC Cup and play No. 2 Duke on Friday and No. 12 Boston College on Sunday. No. 6 men’s soccer has won its first two games, heading into a nationally televised matchup with No. 15 UCLA at Ludwig on Friday at 7 p.m. ET.

Terps football is in action for the first time this Saturday, as the team heads to Texas for a noon kickoff. Coach DJ Durkin unveiled the depth chart, and will start Tyrell Pigrome under center against the No. 23 Longhorns.

Let’s see how long the Terps can keep this up.
