The Terrapins (19-12, 10-9 ACC) are looking to sweep the Eagles (8-24, 0-19 ACC) and secure their first winning season overall and within the conference since 2005, when Maryland finished at 28-5, 18-4 ACC, earned a conference championship and advanced to the second round of the NCAA tournament.
Junior Lisa Scott leads Maryland with a .337 attack percentage, seventh-best in the conference. Scott also has a team-best 115 total blocks.
