After a 3-3 opening weekend, Maryland softball returned to Florida to face off against the Purdue Boilermakers and the Iowa Hawkeyes this past weekend.
The Terps were coming off of an impressive split of three doubleheaders against Minnesota, Illinois, and Wisconsin, and continued to show big improvements by also splitting the second weekend of the season, 3-3.
In the second weekend of the season, Maryland went 3-3, moving its season record to 6-6.
Here’s how each game went.

Maryland softball will begin its 2021 campaign this upcoming weekend in the Leesburg, Florida, bubble. The Terps kick off the season with three consecutive doubleheaders Minnesota on Friday, Illinois on Saturday, and Wisconsin on Sunday.
After an abbreviated season in 2020, head coach Mark Montgomery returns for his second season as head coach of the Terrapins. While playing only one conference game in 2020, Maryland finished the season 12-11, which was tied for seventh in the conference.
Montgomery said that the team is “happy to be able to have the opportunity once again to compete against other schools.”
