Coming off of nine straight wins at home and two in a row against Purdue, Maryland baseball looked to sweep the Boilermakers with a win on Sunday in College Park.
Purdue struck first for the second day in a row, but Maryland ace Sean Burke refused to let the early disadvantage rattle him. He buckled down through the fifth inning, holding the Boilermakers to just three more hits and forcing weak contact consistently.
Behind Burke’s arm and a solid day at the plate, Maryland baseball defeated Purdue, 7-2, to complete the sweep and come away with its 19th win in its last 24 games.
