Leading VCU by three entering the bottom of the seventh inning, Maryland baseball suffered a meltdown.
Before the Terps could even record an out, VCU rattled off 11 runs. Head coach Matt Swope tried three different pitchers in the frame, but nothing seemed to work as the Rams turned a 6-3 deficit into a nine-run advantage. Maryland also committed three errors in the frame, epitomizing its sloppiness in a 15-7 defeat.
After a quiet first inning, Maryland broke through in the second against VCU’s Cam Nuckols, who made his first start of the season. Charlie Glennon recorded his first RBI as a Terp via a groundout which brought in Alex Colarco, and then with the bases loaded, the Terps rallied off an additional three runs, capped off by Eddie Hacopian’s two-RBI single.
