After managing to get out of a tough jam in the bottom of the eighth inning to preserve a tie game, Maryland baseball entered the ninth inning with the chance to take its first lead of the day.
Fifth-year centerfielder Chris Alleyne led off for the Terps and ripped a home run over the right field wall to give Maryland its first, and final lead of the night. The Terps, powered by Alleyne’s blast, completed the comeback victory, 8-7, on Wednesday night in Harrisonburg, Virginia.
Alleyne’s 10th home run blast of the season helped Maryland improve to 26-7 overall.
