After exploding for 12 runs in its first series-opening win in Big Ten play against Nebraska on Friday, Maryland’s offense struggled to put runs on the board Saturday.
Nebraska recorded 11 hits compared to the Terps’ eight, but took advantage of its runners on base. The Cornhuskers hit .280 with runners on, while Maryland went hitless in 14 at-bats. That made the difference, as Maryland fell, 7-2.
“We had plenty of opportunities with guys on there to push through,” head coach Matt Swope said. “You got to be able to punch back in some of those and put runs on the board.
