"Today is a very special day as I want to congratulate these 35 Terps on graduating from the University of Maryland," said Maryland Athletic Director
Damon Evans said. "I tell each of our graduates that their degree is a key to opening doors to opportunities. They now have that key and it will allow them to be successful in any endeavor. We have been privileged to watch these graduates play and win championships during their time in College Park. We have seen them grow and develop as young people. Today is a culmination of all of those efforts. They weathered the storms in one of the most difficult times of our country by staying Terrapin Strong, showing resolve and resiliency. Congratulations and remember, once a Terp, always a Terp."
