The first organized competition for football was in 1892. The athletic program began to flourish early in the 1900s. Mens basketball began shortly after the turn of the century, in 1904, and mens lacrosse began in 1910. Womens sports such as basketball, rifling, and soccer started as intramural sports in the 1920s. The womens rifle team won several titles after it was first organized in 1922. By the 1940s, the mens intercollegiate program boasted such national-caliber programs as baseball, boxing, football, lacrosse, track and field, and soccer. Womens teams started competing in intercollegiate competition in 1960 and later blossomed during the last quarter of the 20th century. Now, over 100 years after the athletic programs inception, Maryland has sent numerous players to professional sports organizations, including the NFL, NBA, and MLB.If youre a fan of Maryland athletics, youll find Tales from the Maryland Terrapins to be the perfect addition to your bookshelf!Skyhorse Publishing, as well as our Sports Publishing imprint, are proud to publish a broad range of books for readers interested in sports-books about baseball, pro football, college football, pro and college basketball, hockey, or soccer, we have a book about your sport or your team.Whether you are a New York Yankees fan or hail from Red Sox nation; whether you are a die-hard Green Bay Packers or Dallas Cowboys fan; whether you root for the Kentucky Wildcats, Louisville Cardinals, UCLA Bruins, or Kansas Jayhawks; whether you route for the Boston Bruins, Toronto Maple Leafs, Montreal Canadiens, or Los Angeles Kings; we have a book for you.
