Maryland volleyball swept by No. 16 Purdue in road finale

Maryland volleyball was swept on Saturday in its last road match of the season, falling in straight sets to No. 16 Purdue (24-26, 21-25, 25-27).

The Terps (16-14, 6-12 Big Ten) didn't go down without some key contributions. Samatha Schnitta led the match with a career-high 19 kills, and the Maryland defense had 13 blocks — key in keeping Purdue (19-8, 13-5) from finishing the job earlier.

Maryland’s first set got off to a great start, taking a 15-9 lead in part due to six errors by Purdue. But the Boilermakers came roaring back with a 14-4 scoring run, putting Maryland on the ropes.
