Though Stu Vetter has never steered a player anywhere and he sure has recruited some of the best players in the country to Montrose Christian (Kevin Durant, Greivis, Isiah Armwood, Linus Klsiza, M Yarou, and on and on), when he says Maryland is still in the lead for Ross I believe him. Yes he was upset that Ross backed off his verbal committment. Also, Ross can make no visits during the season as this is one of Vetter’s rules. Just … Read More »
Stu Vetter expanded on his opinion of the future of Decommit Terrence Ross in Matt Bracken’s sunpapers blog:
Montrose Christian basketball coach Stu Vetter confirmed today that senior shooting guard Terrence Rosswithdrew his commitment to Maryland “within the week.” “He has reopened his recruitment,” Vetter said. “He’s going to reopen it for a limited number of schools — no more than four or five. Maryland is still very strong in the picture. He just felt that he wanted to open … Read More »
Alex Krom won the individual championship at 141 pounds and the University of Maryland wrestling team finished sixth at the Midlands Championships, its best finish ever at the prestigious tournament.
The Terps had three wrestlers place, as Steven Bell finished runner-up at 133 pounds andHudson Taylor took fifth at 197 pounds. Maryland finished sixth despite wrestling with eight entrants rather than 10, as Mike Letts and Patrick Gilmore were unable to compete.
“It’s a pretty … Read More »

I had a chance to speak with Montrose Coach Stu Vetter before the game tonight and yes he acknowledged the fact that Terrence Ross had reopened his recruiting process. Coach Vetter said there were 4 Eastern schools, including Maryland, in the hunt. The other 3 schools were certainly basketball powers according to the coach. Coach Vetter does not allow visits during the season, so most certainly a decision would most likely be put off until the spring.
Let me start by saying at this point there is no official word from anyone. But speculation in the Washington Post (naturally), Rivals.com and even the terrapintimes.com, appears to be declaring that Ross is being wooed by other schools but Maryland is still deep in the mix. This is all speculation–if i have a chance to speak with Stu Vetter, Ross’ coach at Montrose, I will report later tonight. Stay tuned!!!!!!
Ten days, I believed this would be a Crimson Tide runaway but then today I read the Sports Illustrated synopsis of the game. Texas has defensive speed the likes of which Bama hasn’t seen. Also, Colt McCoy is stinging from the loss of the Heisman due to his horrific performance against Nebraska. Bama’s QB is a Freshman and Mark Ingram will not see a 100 yard day against Texas. “Hook em Horns” an upset is in the works. Tim Rosolio … Read More »
There is no secret–this is going to be a tough test for the Terrapins. W&M comes into maryland riding a 8 game streak based on terrific 3 point shooting, which occasionally has been a sore spot for the Terps. Gary commented on the effects of rebounding and 3 point shooting: “The hardest three pointer to guard is off an offensive rebound because everybody is going toward the glass,” the coach said. “Florida Atlantic had three threes after an offensive rebound. We’re working … Read More »
PressBox put on a heckuva show Tuesday night. Art Donovan, Gino Marchetti, Ordell Braase, and Jim Mutscheller reminisced about the forgotten game-the 59 Championship . Job well done Stan!!
Maryland opened the game with a 13-4 run including a nine point performance by sophomore Kim Rodgers before the first media timeout to claim the title of the Terrapin Classic. The Terps defeated the UNC-Wilmington Seahawks 67-61 in the final game of the tournament. Maryland’s own Lynetta Kizer was named the tournament’s Most Valuable Player after her double-double performance against Stony Brook (13 points/10 rebounds) and her double-digit points scored against UNC-Wilmington. Loni Bjork also had a big part in … Read More »
