Two weeks ago, Maryland volleyball played arguably its best match of the season, taking No. 8 Penn State (16-3, 9-1 Big Ten) to five sets in State College.
On Saturday, Maryland (12-10, 4-6) was hoping to finish its upset in a rematch, but instead the script was flipped. The Terps, on the main floor of Xfinity Center for the first time this season, were shut down on offense and weren’t competitive against the Nittany Lions, who won in straight sets.
In the teams’ first meeting, Maryland took a set in Happy Valley for the first time in nearly 40 years.
