Senior Kerry Hickey of the Maryland softball team notched her 11th career no-hitter Saturday in game one of a doubleheader at Florida State. The Terps beat the Seminoles 1-0 in the first game and a five-run top of the seventh inning led Maryland to a 7-4 victory in the second game. The two wins are Maryland’s (32-13, 8-4 ACC) first-ever back-to-back wins over Florida State (25-23, 7-9 ACC) in school history.
With all that was going on today at College Park, there was definitely a feeling of an Olympic type venue. My day started at Comcast watching the Lady Terps in round oneof the NCAAs.

Alyssa Thomas is an impressive player and led the Terps with 16.

The fact that Maryland received a stellar combo pitching effort from Kerry Hickey and Kendra surprised no one in the packed stadium tonight. Fordham make good use of its 3 hits while Maryland could only gather 1 run off its 7 hits. The cushion is gone –the Terrapin nine faces elimination in its game vs Syracuse on Saturday.
