Maryland exploded for 19 runs in a dominant win over Richmond, showcasing a relentless offense and season‑best production at the plate. The Terps scored in each of the first six innings, with sophomore Jackson Sirois hitting two homers and six different hitters delivering multi-RBI efforts to power the blowout victory.

Why it matters

The win pushes Maryland to 13-15 on the season and provides a much-needed confidence boost as the team prepares for a pivotal Big Ten road series at Ohio State. After an up-and-down start, the Terps' offensive outburst demonstrates their potential to break out and make a late-season push in conference play.

Richmond managed single runs in the first, second, and fourth but couldn't keep pace with Maryland's relentless pressure at the plate.
