This is great news for the Terrapins, the Big 10 and college sports in general. Maryland is a major college athletic program, and they don’t have a single case of coronavirus less than a month to go to the football season starting.
This is a major shift in momentum from early July when the Terrapins had suspended football workouts because of coronavirus.
Now, the program doesn’t have a single new case after more than 200 tests, and they’ve only had 12 cases total.
Overall, it seems like Maryland is doing a very solid job of managing the coronavirus pandemic. Now, we just need to make sure they keep doing a great job through the football season.
It’s a very fluid situation, but it seems like things are trending in the proper direction in College Park.
