The Xfinity Center Pavilion erupted after an amazing sequence by the Maryland volleyball team concluded a stellar 13-6 start to the fourth set. Down 2-1 in the match, the Terps needed to maintain that energy and carry their lead into a decisive fifth set.
To the dismay of the Terrapin faithful, that energy boost did not persist. Rutgers climbed back into the set and a 3-0 run that saw two attacks by the Terrapins fall out of bounds sealed the home team’s fate.
Off the heels of a three-game win streak, Maryland now finds itself back into a losing slump, capping off a three-game losing streak in a 3-1 loss to Rutgers (16-25, 25-16, 17-25, 22-25).
