He gave up two hits to begin the inning, forcing head coach Rob Vaughn at hand the ball to freshman right-handed pitcher Joey Colucci.
Colucci couldn’t put it collectively in his second profession pitching look, giving up a two-RBI single to Nick Lottchea, which in the end served because the dagger within the Terps’ 13-3 loss to William & Mary.
The early goings of Tuesday evening’s sport had been promising for Maryland. Senior outfielder Bobby Zmarzlak made a diving catch to kick issues off, and sophomore right-handed pitcher Ryan Van Buren allowed just one hit in his first inning of labor.
After Luke Shliger’s bid at a leadoff homer was snagged on the wall, senior third baseman Nick Lorusso hit a double, extending his hitting streak to 27 video games. Junior shortstop Matt Shaw adopted it up with a single, and a sacrifice fly by Matt Woods put the Terps on the board first.
Within the second, although, the Terps’ fortunes started to show for the more serious. Van Buren surrendered one other hit, and an error by junior second baseman Kevin Keister meant two runners had been on with no outs. Then, graduate infielder Cole Ragone hit a ball that ricocheted off of Van Buren’s leg and into the outfield, bringing a runner round from second. Proper after, freshman infielder Ryan Bhojwani hit an RBI single to provide the Tribe the lead, and an RBI groundout by sophomore outfielder Lucas Carmichael prolonged it to 2.
However, Maryland fought again within the second, getting again on the board with a success, stroll and an RBI single by sophomore outfielder Elijah Lambros. Afterwards, a sacrifice bunt by freshman catcher Devin Russell and sacrifice fly by Shliger tied issues up at three.
Within the fourth inning, Van Buren gave up one other hit, and with two outs, Max Winters got here as much as the plate. He hit a ball to the right-field wall that Matt Woods couldn’t monitor down, and he smashed into the fence, which allowed Winters to around the bases for an inside-the-park dwelling run. Woods, regardless of being shaken up and exiting the sport, was in a position to stroll off the sphere on his personal.
Ott relieved Van Buren, and Joe Delossantos welcomed him with a nuke over the left-field scoreboard to make the lead three for the Tribe.
Maryland could not reply, as senior right-handed pitcher Tom Mayer shut the Terps down with three straight hitless innings.
The Tribe prolonged their result in 4 when Ott gave up his second dwelling run, this time to sophomore infielder Luca Danos.
After one other hitless inning from the Terps, the Tribe had been in a position to get two runners on within the prime of the seventh, which pressured Ott out the sport. After strolling the bases loaded, Vaughn turned to a freshman, right-handed pitcher Wagner Morrisette, who was in a position to get out of the inning with a double play.
After two strikeouts began the seventh, hits by Shaw and freshman outfielder Luke Zeisloft — who changed Woods in proper discipline — broke a four-inning chilly streak. Keister then hit a grounder to 3rd base that promised to finish the inning, however Shaw narrowly beat freshman infielder Corey Adams to the bag to load the bases. First baseman Eddie Hacopian labored a full depend with two outs, however struck out to finish the rally.
Vaughn continued to go from freshman to freshman on the mound. Three walks by Morrisette took him out of the sport, and right-handed pitcher Eli Stowe had three walks of his personal to convey two extra runs dwelling, as the sport really fell out of attain.
Maryland could not get the rest going within the subsequent two innings; Rojo Prarie shut the Terps down, extending a six-inning scoreless drought. Sensing the sport being out of attain, Vaughn turned to his bench, which resulted in freshman infielder Alex Irizarry getting his first collegiate hit.
One other three-walk inning and a dropped third strike resulted in one other run for William & Mary. The Terps’ sixth pitching change of the sport featured senior right-handed pitcher Matt Orlando, who lastly ended the inning.
Uneventful and quiet late innings eased Maryland right into a 13-3 loss.
The loss broke Maryland’s five-game midweek profitable streak, relationship again to its first midweek sport in opposition to West Virginia. The Terps get to play at dwelling once more this weekend, as they face Rutgers in a three-game collection.
Three issues to know
1. One other tough pitching outing. Maryland’s pitching value it Sunday’s sport in opposition to Iowa, and whereas it wasn’t the only real issue within the loss in opposition to William & Mary, it was far lower than supreme. Ott and Van Buren surrendered 4 earned runs every and 11 hits whole, and the Terps walked 11 batters after Ott exited within the seventh inning. Vaughn made a questionable transfer by placing in a freshman in a high-leverage scenario within the seventh, however he might have to avoid wasting arms for an necessary convention collection in opposition to Rutgers this weekend.
2. The bats fell asleep. After an incredible begin, the Maryland bats went silent after the second inning. The Terps had seven straight scoreless innings to finish the sport, together with three straight hitless frames in the course of the sport. By the point they tried to rally within the later innings, it was too late.
3. Nice crowd, nice climate. The temperature initially of the sport was over 80 levels and sunny, bringing in an energized crowd because the evening went on. Maryland might not be in place to host a regional this season, however it’ll want its dwelling followers to point out up with convention collection on the docket.

Maryland issues a new suicide prevention action plan for schools, families – WTOP News
![Maryland issues a new suicide prevention action plan for schools, families – WTOP News Maryland issues a new suicide prevention action plan for schools, families – WTOP News](https://wtop.com/wp-content/uploads/2023/03/SAD_GIRL.GettyImages-1033774340-e1705449585875.jpg)
Suicide is the third leading cause of death for young people between the ages of 10 and 24 in Maryland. That’s according to a new suicide prevention action plan produced through the state’s Department of Health.
Suicide is the third leading cause of death for young people between the ages of 10 and 24 in Maryland. That’s according to a new suicide prevention action plan produced through the state’s Department of Health.
Scott Poland, the director of the Office of Suicide and Violence Prevention at Nova Southeastern University College of Psychology, talked to WTOP about the action plan he authored with his wife, Donna, who is a career educator.
The “Maryland Action Plan to Prevent Suicide in K-12 Schools” serves as a reference guide to school administrators and the community, and was developed in cooperation with the state health department’s Office of Suicide Prevention.
Poland said one thing that surprises people is that children as young as 8 years old may consider taking their own lives.
“I hear from school personnel all around the country (asking if they) have to take it seriously (if a fourth or fifth grader is talking about suicide). And the answer is absolutely yes,” Poland said.
Among the data points in the action plan is a survey of students in the “Youth Risk Behavior Surveillance Survey of 2021/2022.” According to that survey, 21% of high school students “seriously considered suicide” in the past year, and 27% of middle schoolers considered suicide at some point in their lives.
Poland said it’s important to talk about suicide with young people, and that the idea that talking about it might encourage a young person to consider suicide is a “myth.”
“When we actually bring it up, it gives someone a chance to unburden themselves, to realize that they’re not alone, that there are alternatives and that there is help available,” Poland said.
But he said young people are most susceptible to imitating suicidal behavior: “It is important that we not glorify the suicide victim.”
Instead, Poland said, the emphasis after a suicide should be on healing those affected and helping them find appropriate ways to deal with their emotions and mental health.
The plan released this week includes providing intervention action plans for a young person who may be considering suicide.
“Part of that, of course, is removing lethal means and developing a written safety plan with them,” he said.
Poland said that can include helping people understand “the importance of calling 988, doing things that can calm themselves down,” and reaching out to the nearest trusted adult.
People can reach the national resource for crisis response services and suicide prevention by dialing 988.
Poland said social media is “wreaking havoc” on children’s emotional well-being, often making them feel “not smart enough, not rich enough, not good enough.” Poland said he’s currently working with the state of South Dakota on developing tools to help “young people be a little more mindful and make better decisions about their screen time.”
Poland said parents can help — when it comes to the hours and hours that many people spend online — by modeling healthy amounts of screen time themselves. And he said adults need to think about how they introduce technology to their kids.
“We’re in too (much of) a hurry to give kids smartphones and 24-hour internet access,” Poland said.
“I really have to compliment Maryland,” Poland said, on coming up with the new plan.
Poland said Maryland does not have an especially high rate of suicide, but “I think we all recognize that losing one young person to suicide is one too many.”

Getting to know Michigan State football’s Week 2 opponent: Maryland
![Getting to know Michigan State football’s Week 2 opponent: Maryland Getting to know Michigan State football’s Week 2 opponent: Maryland](https://images2.minutemediacdn.com/image/upload/c_crop,w_4000,h_2250,x_0,y_0/c_fill,w_1440,ar_16:9,f_auto,q_auto,g_auto/images/GettyImages/mmsport/137/01j714ppf1xrvce2agzn.jpg)
Game two is coming up for Michigan State football as the Spartans hit the road for an early season Big Ten matchup against Maryland. The Terps have had MSU’s number in recent years, but the Spartans’ new-look team is ready to change that narrative this weekend.
Jonathan Smith and his staff have a lot to work on this week after a lackluster 16-10 win over Florida Atlantic, but we’ve become more than used to slow starts for MSU in their first game so it’s not time to panic just yet.
While the team wraps up their preparations for Maryland, let’s take a quick look at the Terps and see what we can learn about them before the big game on Saturday.
Maryland is off and running in their 2024 campaign and had an absolutely dominant week one performance. The Terps took on UConn at home and came away with an impressive 50-7 win. Sure UConn is an awful football program, but we saw how poorly Michigan State just did against a similar opponent.
Not only was the final score lopsided, but ever major statistical category was as well. Maryland doubled UConn in first downs and rushing yards, threw for nearly 400 passing yards and even won the turnover battle 3-0. The Terps also only had five penalties for 45 yards which is significantly better than MSU’s 12 for 140 yards against FAU.
Sure all of this took place against UConn, but it appears that Maryland is in a very good spot heading into this big week two matchup.
One thing that I thought would be a positive for Michigan State in this game is that Maryland is breaking in a new quarterback as well. The Terps’ quarterback, Billy Edwards Jr., went off against UConn and completed 20-of-27 passes for 311 yards and two touchdowns. He also is a capable runner and added 39 yards on the ground, so Michigan State will have its hands full on Saturday slowing him down.
The Terps don’t have one standout running back in the backfield, so that does benefit MSU. They do however have two solid backs in Roman Hemby and Nolan Ray who both ran for over 60 yards and one score each.
The one player however that Michigan State needs to pay the most attention to is wide receiver Tai Felton. He had one of the best Week 1 performances in the country as he recorded seven receptions for 178 yards and two touchdowns. Thankfully MSU’s defense and secondary looked much improved against FAU, so hopefully that carries over into this weekend’s matchup.
The opportunity in front of MSU on Saturday is massive. The Spartans are big underdogs in this matchup which they probably deserve, but a win would do wonders not just for the overall perception of the team but for their confidence moving forward.
I’ve got a strange feeling that we’re going to be very happy around 7 p.m. ET Saturday night.
