Ultimate Draft score:1580.4
Total players drafted, 2009-18:107 (see Maryland’s first-round picks).
Biggest draft-producing sports:Men’s lacrosse, men’s soccer, women’s basketball
Those who view Maryland athletics solely through the lens of its recently mediocre football and men’s basketball programs might be shocked to find the Terps at No. 2 on our survey. But remember that the Terps have consistently been dominant in other sports such as lacrosse, for which they’ve had 40 players selected into MLL over the past decade, and in men’s soccer, for which their talent has led to 22 MLS draft picks — and a current streak of 17 straight NCAA appearances. Also, Brenda Frese’s women’s hoops program has produced 10 WNBA draft picks since 2009; only UConn, Tennessee and Duke have more.
