Maryland Baseball: Terps rout UMBC to avoid elimination

The Maryland baseball team didn’t much production from their offense in Friday’s 9-1 loss to West Virginia.

On Saturday, the Terrapins erupted at the plate in a 16-2 win over UMBC to stay alive in the NCAA Tournament.

Maryland tallied 10 hits and four home runs on the afternoon. Shortstop Kevin Smith ripped a pair of three-run home runs to pace the Terps.

Smith’s six RBIs were a Maryland NCAA Tournament record.

Maryland’s offense got things going in the second inning when catcher Justin Morris ripped a two-run home run to give the Terps a 2-1 lead.
