The Terrapin football team’s spring slate came to a close today with the annual Red-White game. The Red team took home the relatively meaningless win and outplayed the White team from start to finish to register the 35-7 victory.

Quarterback Danny O’Brien and the first-team offense shined for the Red team and provided much of the game’s fireworks. O’Brien got things started on the first play from scrimmage, hitting wideout Ronnie Tyler with a bomb over the top of the White defense for a 65-yard touchdown and a 7-0 lead.

O’Brien and Tyler connected again in the 4th quarter, this time for a 27-yard touchdown to cap the scoring on the day.

O’Brien finished with 199 yards, two touchdowns and two interceptions. Running back Davin Meggett turned 12 carries into 73 yards and a touchdown, while DJ Adams chipped in 56 yards and a touchdown on the ground.

While the first-team defense struggled for much of the game — understandably, as coach Randy Edsall said their playbook was limited as to not reveal anything to future opponents — it settled down after giving up 21 points in the first quarter.

Linebacker Kenny Tate showed his transition from safety has been smooth with 11 tackles, while cornerback Cameron Chism settled in with 11 tackles and an interception.

As for reserves, freshman wide receiver Nigel King showed serious promise with the White team’s offense. While he had just three grabs for 19 yards, his athletic ability was very much on display whenever he touched the ball.

“I thought the guys really competed hard,” Edsall said. “Guys go out and work really really hard through 14 [spring] practices, and the spring game’s really a reward.

“You’ve got to remember: we didnt let them do anything … Usually in the spring game, the offense probably does have the advantage. It’s like the Pro Bowl.”

Be sure to check out Monday’s Diamondback for a full recap of today’s action.

The 2011 Puerto Rico Tip-Off has secured all eight teams for its early season tournament, including the Terrapin men’s basketball team. The tournament is set to run Nov. 17, 18 and 20 at the Coliseo de Puerto Rico, in the cosmopolitan Hato Rey district of San Juan.

The Terps, fresh off its first season without a postseason appearance in 17 years, wasn’t one of the programs touted in the today’s release of the tournament. Instead, Purdue, Temple (both NCAA Tournament teams) and two 2011 NIT semifinalists “headline” the field.

Along with Purdue and Temple, the Terps will join Alabama, Colorado, Iona, Maryland, Western Michigan and Wichita State.

This past season the Terps played in the 2k Sports Classic benefiting Coaches vs. Cancer at Madison Square Garden. They lost both of their games to Illinois and Pittsburgh.

This will be the Terps’ first appearance in the tournament. The previous winners include Minnesota, Villanova, Xavier, and Miami.

Former Kansas State men’s basketball guard Wally Judge will visit College Park this weekend, ZagsBlog.com reported.

Judge, who left the Wildcat program in the middle of the 2010-11 season, will visit Washington next week and is also considering Memphis.

But it’s Rutgers that is considered the frontrunner to land Judge, who averaged 5.5 points and 3.8 rebounds in 17 games as a sophomore for the Wildcats last season, according to ZagsBlog.com.

For a sense of what the former blue-chip recruit can do athletically, view this:

The deadline for NCAA men’s basketball underclassmen to declare for the 2011 NBA Draft passed Sunday night. Among the names not on the list include North Carolina trio of Harrison Barnes, Tyler Zeller and John Henson along with potential top-five picks Ohio State’s Jared Sullinger and Baylor’s Perry Jones.

But one name Terrapin men’s basketball fans are all too familiar with still stands: Jordan Williams. All indications still point to Williams training in Las Vegas in preparation for the draft with others including former-Kansas guard Josh Shelby. Williams still has until May 8 to pull his name out of the draft though.

There have been no reports of Williams hiring an agent, so his eligibility is still intact.  But for the next two weeks, Terp fans are still on the Jordan Williams watch.

An important couple dates to keep in mind are May 7 and 8. New Jersey received league permission to have a two-day workout that will include underclassmen. Should Williams get an invitation, he will be able to hear from NBA scouts directly about his draft status.

A weak draft and several underclassmen unexpectedly returning to school has opened some room for Williams to possibly go higher in the draft. But it’s still early, especially with the NBA Draft Lottery still to come, and expectations are still varied.

ESPN NBA Insider Chad Ford lists Williams as the No. 42 prospect in this year’s class. The list was updated Monday. Indications to Ford is that Williams is a second round pick. But NBADraft.net lists Williams going much earlier — No. 22 to Denver.

We’ll keep you up-to-date with the latest on his decision and what it means for the Terps men’s basketball team.

Terrapin men’s lacrosse midfielder Joe Cummings injured his right arm against Duke on Sunday.

In the third quarter, Blue Devil defender Chris Hipps received a one-minute penalty for slashing Cummings, who was in visible pain after the incident, grimacing and grabbing his arm. The Terps capitalized on the extra-man, as attackman Travis Reed scored on the crease off a feed from attackman Ryan Young less than 30 seconds into Hipps’ penalty.

After the game, Cummings could be seen wearing a sling and ice as the Terps celebrated their first ACC Championship since 2005 inside Koskinen Stadium.

Upon arriving in College Park late Sunday night, the midfielder received X-rays, but the full extent of his injury has yet to be determined.

Here are some photos of when Cummings suffered the injury and immediately after.

Cummings leads the Terps in goals with 24, and his abscence would definitely hurt as the team prepares for the season’s final stretch. With a bye this weekend and a matchup against Colgate on May 7, though, Cummings has time to recover before the NCAA Tournament starts first round action on May 14 and 15.

On top of being one of the best Terp tweeters in College Park, Terrapin football defensive tackle A.J. Francis can rap. Francis tweeted the link to a song he did for the Terrapin women’s lacrosse team, a remix of Wiz Khalifa’s “Black and Yellow,” entitled “Fear the Turtle.”

Francis later tweeted that he is currently working on his next mix tape, but that he doesn’t know if any more Maryland-themed tracks will be featured.
