Maryland men's basketball signs five-star prospect Darius Adams
The future of the Maryland men's basketball team continued to gain momentum Monday afternoon, when Terrapins Coach Buzz Williams announced the signing of Darius Adams, a McDonald's all-American and one of the most heralded recruits in program history. The 6-foot-5, five-star guard from Manchester, New Jersey, becomes the fourth-highest-rated prospect for the Terps since such rankings began. Adams is rated No. 15 overall in the Class of 2025 by Rivals, No. 18 by On3 and No. 23 by 247Sports. Only Diamond Stone, Derik Queen and Jalen Smith ranked higher than Adams, who spent his final two years of high school at La Lumiere in La Porte, Indiana.

5-star OT Immanuel Iheanacho makes major recruiting change; Oregon Football stands to gain
5-star OT Immanuel Iheanacho makes major recruiting change; Oregon Football stands to gain There are a handful of big fish remaining on the Oregon Ducks 2026 recruiting board, and on Friday, Dan Lanning and Company got some great news concerning one of the top prospects. 5-star offensive tackle Immanuel Iheanacho announced that he is changing his official visit schedule this summer, adding and subtracting a couple of teams, and setting a commitment date for August 5. The 247Sports Composite rates Iheanacho as the No. 4 overall player in the 2026 class and the No. 2 OT. One of the biggest announcements from Iheanacho is which schools he plans to take official visits to. The Ducks will get his last visit on on June 20, which is always a plus in the recruiting world to get the final word before a commitment. On top of that, Iheanacho plans to take OVs to LSU, Penn State, and Auburn. Most notably, Alabama is off of the list, as is Maryland. For those following Iheanacho's recruitment, the Terrapins — Iheanacho's hometown school — have been considered one of the top candidates to land him. While not taking an OV to Maryland doesn't exactly mean he won't end up with other Terps, it's a big development. Iheanacho also told 247Sports that the Ducks are currently leading his recruitment and did not mention Maryland among his top schools. "Right now I would say it's (Oregon), LSU, Penn State and Auburn," he said, via 247Sports. "Probably in that order. I feel like the OVs can be the changing difference."

Maryland women's basketball's resilience shined despite Sweet 16 exit
Maryland women's basketball fell to the eventual national championship runner-up South Carolina in the Sweet 16, but its resilience proved strong when it mattered most. 'You're going to have moments that you are going to go through high highs and low lows,' head coach Brenda Frese said, 'and for them (the team), they can see how resilient they were through the course of the season and were able to come back out on top.' Advertisement The Terps rolled into the new year with a 14-0 record, but difficulties began once the calendar turned to 2025. 'This [season] ranked right up there because there were so many highs to start the season out and the win streak we had, and then the lows through the adversity that we faced with all the injuries,' Frese said. Maryland's first loss on Jan. 8 to USC was not a warning sign, as it fought hard against an eventual No. 1 seed. The Terps took their first gut punch in a win on Jan. 14 at home against Minnesota, though. In the first half of that game, Bri McDaniel tore her ACL, and was sidelined for the remainder of the season. McDaniel averaged 10.6 points and 2.4 assists per game this season, and brought intensity and grit to both sides of the court. Advertisement Unfortunately for the Terps, a downward spiral began, losing their next three games — two of which were to eventual Final Four teams in Texas and UCLA. Not only was Maryland without McDaniel, Shyanne Sellers also got injured against Texas and missed its most difficult stretch of the season. 'Like I've shared with them, a lot of teams would have folded after losing Bri [McDaniel],' Frese said. Sellers eventually returned and played out the rest of her final season, but she never fully recovered from her knee injury. The Terps fell two more times — a slim one-point loss to Illinois on Senior Day and a blowout loss to Nebraska — both on their home floor. Advertisement The end of the regular season proved to be crucial. Maryland won six of its final seven games, and it finally looked like McDaniel's absence wasn't as apparent. Sarah Te-Biasu ended the season with a clutch game-winning shot in overtime against Ohio State, which the Terps had fallen to earlier in the season. Then came the Big Ten Tournament. Maryland was outclassed by a Michigan team it had beaten just 19 days prior, and things looked once again bleak with a two-week break until the NCAA Tournament. During that break, the Terps were given a lifeline. Maryland received a chance to host the first and second rounds of the NCAA tournament as a No. 4 seed. Advertisement The opening round of the NCAA tournament wasn't pretty. The Terps escaped with a win over No. 13-seed Norfolk State following a lackluster start. No. 5-seed Alabama was next, producing arguably the best game of the NCAA tournament. Maryland's season looked to end on its home floor, down by 17 points with Sellers and Kaylene Smikle in serious foul trouble. The Terps found a way to tie the game, though, as Te-Biasu saved the season with 12 seconds left, making a remarkable 3-pointer that sent the game to overtime. In overtime, Maryland had seemingly won the game, up by three points with six seconds remaining. Sarah Ashlee Barker then heaved a desperation 3-pointer at the buzzer in hopes to tie the game. She missed, but was fouled by Saylor Poffenbarger and drained all three free throws. Off to a second overtime. Advertisement Barker scored 45 points but it wasn't enough. The Terps took the lead in the final period and never relented, advancing them to Birmingham, Alabama. The season ended in Birmingham against No. 1-seed South Carolina, but the Terps fought hard and may have pulled off the upset if not for Allie Kubek fouling out late. 'We had some people say we weren't going to make it out of the first round,' Kubek said after the game. 'I think coming here and proving them wrong is really special, and especially with this group of girls. They're really great. It's been a blessing.' Coming into the Sweet 16, Maryland didn't seem to have much of a chance against a juggernaut in the Gamecocks, but the Terps held a lead in the final three minutes and almost pulled off one of the biggest upsets in program history. Advertisement 'Just to watch this team when it started back in Croatia, to form with 10 new players and to be able to go through all those highs and lows and to be able to trust the system, trust the coaching staff and really just continue to buy in and be able to take us to a Sweet 16 [was special],' Frese said.
