Six Terps recorded multi-hit games in Sunday’s thrilling series finale.

COLLEGE PARK, MD — Maryland and Purdue wrapped their weekend series up with a wild, back-and-forth Sunday finale at Bob "Turtle" Smith Stadium, and the Terps walked away with a 10-9 win. Ty Kaunas pushed the game's final run across in the eighth inning to move Maryland to 11-8 in 2026.

Jordan Crosland unloaded on a two-run homer in the bottom of the fifth inning to get the Terps on the board. He's hit five homers in his past 10 games and picked up a pair of RBIs on the season.

Nate Hawton-Henley made his first-career start, and came up with a key two-RBI single with the bases loaded to cut Purdue's lead to 5-4. Brayden Martin's team-leading 31st hit of the season gave the Terps their first lead during a four-run sixth inning. He finished with a pair of knocks as one of six Terps with multiple hits in the win.
