COLLEGE PARK, Md. -- The University of Maryland Athletics Department celebrated the graduation of 94 student-athletes at Friday's May Commencement at Capital One Field at Maryland Stadium.
"Today is a very special day as I want to congratulate these 94 Terps on graduating from the University of Maryland," said Barry P. Gosset Director of Athletics Damon Evans. "Having the opportunity to walk across the stage beaming from ear to ear is a moment each graduate will never forget. 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. As we know, Terrapins are strong and resilient by nature of their shells and this year's graduating class certainly proved that to be true. They weathered one of the most difficult times of our country by staying Terrapin Strong. Congratulations and remember, once a Terp, always a Terp."
