Due to a positive within the program and multiple contact tracing measures, Maryland was without two of its starters for its road trip against Indiana last weekend. While the Terps dropped the first game of the weekend in straight sets, they bounced back in an emphatic way to split the series.
Off the backs of an impressive weekend from their trio of freshmen, the Terps will host the Iowa Hawkeyes as they to try and finally piece together consecutive victories. Players’ families will be allowed to attend for the first time this year.

Heading into Friday’s matchup against Indiana, Maryland volleyball head coach Adam Hughes had gotten the better of his predecessor Steve Aird thrice in the three meetings since his promotion in 2018, one he was thrust into following Aird’s sudden departure.
Having just one win on the season has been a sore spot for the Terps in 2021, but another win over Indiana would have been just what the team needed after last weekend’s postponement stifled its momentum.
The Terps hadn’t lost to the Hoosiers since Oct. 2, 2015, but bogged down by COVID-19 related issues, that changed Friday night. Maryland was swept in three sets (25-27, 22-25, 19-25), dropping the team to 1-0 on the season.
