Maryland never led. UConn got out to a 2-0 lead in the bottom of the first inning. The Terrapins scored in the top of the 3rd inning to cut it to 2-1 and again in the top of the 5th inning to tie it up 2-2.

THAT'S A START!

The Terps now need 3 victories in a row to survive and advance to the Super Regional. It starts with an elimination game at 1 p.m. against Wake Forest. The winner of the game will then play UConn. The Huskies would have to be defeated twice as a 2-0 team in a double-elimination tournament.
Time to battle.
