Tuesday’s game at Virginia Credit Union Stadium will be the second of three minor league stadiums that Virginia is slated to play in this season, with the other two being Atrium Health Ballpark (Kannapolis, N.C.) and Truist Field (Charlotte, N.C.).
Entering the midweek, Virginia is averaging 10 runs per game, which ranks sixth nationally and fourth in the league behind Georgia Tech, Miami, and Pittsburgh. Overall, UVA has scored the fourth-most runs in the country at 251.
The longtime ACC foes had not played each other in a decade before the 2025 meeting in Fredericksburg that saw Virginia walk off Maryland with a wild pitch.
Before last season’s dramatic contest, UVA and Maryland had not played on the baseball diamond since the 2015 Charlottesville Super Regional, when Virginia swept the Terrapins en route to the program’s first national championship.
