Maryland gymnastics lost their second straight Big Ten meet on Sunday afternoon, but there was a silver lining. The Terrapins were very good, but the Hawkeyes were just a bit better.
Kathy Tang took second in the all-around competition, and three Terps posted personal bests on various disciplines.
Here are three things that we learned from the Iowa-Maryland meet:
1) Despite the loss, the Terps are ahead of schedule
Maryland posted a 195.500 on Sunday afternoon. Last year's squad didn't record a team score that high until March. There's a lot of talent on this team, and a score this high, this early in the season is indicative of that.
