Maryland baseball falls to UMBC, 5-2, behind late-inning collapse
Maryland baseball’s offense stalled after briefly holding the lead Tuesday afternoon, while UMBC utilized a key late-inning output to seize control at Bob “Turtle” Smith Stadium.
Despite several solid individual performances, the Terps couldn’t find their rhythm at the plate. Elijah Lambros and Aden Hill each showed flashed of promise, but were unable to string together consistent offense.
Maryland’s pitchers worked to keep the game close, with timely outs and strong defense preventing the Retrievers from pulling away early on. However, costly errors and missed chances at the plate gave UMBC the edge.
Ultimately, Maryland’s struggle to further capitalize on early opportunities cost it the game, 5-2.
The Terps have now lost consecutive games to UMBC (9-13) after defeating it in the precious 15 matchups.
Both teams remained scoreless through the first three innings, as they each had opportunities but failed to convert.
Maryland (14-15) starting pitcher Brayden Ryan worked around trouble in the first inning, escaping a bases-loaded jam after hitting two batters. In the bottom of the inning, UMBC’s Sergio Droz kept the Terps off the board early despite three Maryland runners reaching base.
UMBC struck first in the third inning, as Leewood Molessa singled up the middle to drive in a run, putting the Retrievers ahead, 1-0.
After three scoreless innings, Maryland broke through in the bottom of the fourth. With one out, Jacob Orr roped a double to center field to put a runner in scoring position. Elijah Lambros followed it up with a two-run home run to left field, giving Maryland a 2-1 advantage.
However, Maryland’s lead was short-lived. UMBC capitalized on timely hitting and defensive miscues in the sixth inning. A pair of singles and a sacrifice fly tied the game at two.
The Terps had a chance to respond in the bottom of the seventh inning. They put two runners on base, but Aiden Hill struck out swinging to end the frame.
In the eighth inning, the Retrievers broke open the contest, as Derek Paris smashed a two-run homer down the left-field line to recapture the lead.
Meanwhile, Maryland’s bats fell silent in the final two innings, as UMBC’s bullpen shut the door, allowing just one base runner.
Molessa added one more insurance run for UMBC in the ninth inning to help secure a three-run win.
The Terps’ offense was limited to just five hits, compared to UMBC’s nine.
Three things to know
1. Pitching carousel. Both teams used five pitchers throughout the game, with Maryland deploying several arms in an attempt to keep UMBC’s offense in check. UMBC mixed in six pitchers effectively, making it difficult got the Terps to build any momentum.
2. Missed opportunities. The Terps left 10 runners on base, including three in the first inning and two in the fifth inning, failing to convert in key moments.
3. A rare streak breaker. Maryland’s loss to UMBC marks their second straight defeat to the Retrievers after winning the previous 15 matchups.

Buzz Williams has brought the number of new players joining the Maryland Terrapins next season to eight.
The Terps have the nation’s No. 8 freshmen recruiting class, consisting of four players including five-star small forward Baba Oladotun. Now, they have just as many transfer portal additions.
Their latest acquisition is forward Maban Jabriel, who previously spent two years with Queens University of Charlotte, a member of the ASUN.
Jabriel announced his commitment to Maryland on his Instagram account:
During his sophomore campaign with the Royals, Jabriel played in all 35 games, mainly off the bench, and averaged 7.7 points, 3.8 rebounds, and 1.0 assists in 19.8 minutes.
Shooting is Jabriel’s greatest strength. At 6’9″, he has the size to win battles close to the basket, but the Waterloo, Ontario native can score from all over the court.
Jabriel shot 49.5% from the field, 43.2% from deep, and 77.4% at the free throw line last season. The Terps can certainly use the help after being the worst shooting team (40.7% overall) not just in the Big Ten, but across all the Power conferences.
The rest of Maryland’s transfer class looks like this:
- Tomislav Buljan – power forward who averaged 13.1 points, 10.3 rebounds, 1.5 assists for New Mexico last season.
- Robert Jennings II – power forward who averaged 5.4 points, 3.4 rebounds, and 0.3 assists for Oklahoma State in 2024-25 (injured most of last season).
- Bishop Boswell – combo guard who averaged 6.2 points, 4.4 rebounds, and 3.1 assists for Tennessee last season.
Put together, the Terps currently have the No. 4 incoming crop of players, according to 247 Sports. That figure was as high as No. 1 this offseason and could rise back up with additional moves.
Maryland is confirmed to be keeping at least three players from last season: Rakease Passmore, who redshirted due to injury, along with Andre Mills and George Turkson Jr.
Pharrel Payne also wishes to return but is waiting for his medical hardship waiver to be approved by the NCAA.
That leaves Buzz with three scholarship spots to fill – either with more transfers or the undecided members of last year’s team, Myles Rice and Guillermo Del Pino.
Players only have until this Tuesday, April 21 to enter the portal, so a decision for both Rice and Del Pino will be made soon.
Maryland On SI will continue to cover the Terps’ transfer portal transactions as they occur.
