Maryland won't schedule Hoyas in any sport

[whatmaroon]

From a Liz Clarke article in the Post:

Rebuffed in his efforts to restart Maryland’s men’s basketball rivalry with Georgetown, Terrapins Athletic Director Kevin Anderson has decided against scheduling games against the Hoyas in all sports until the impasse is resolved.

...

Maryland apparently hasn’t officially informed Georgetown of its new stance, which means that the budding rivalry between the Washington area’s dominant women’s basketball teams will come to a halt. It also puts on hold further crosstown clashes between Maryland and Georgetown in lacrosse and soccer starting next season — among the half-dozen varsity teams that met (or will meet) this season.

That was just depressing to read. Maryland is dead broke and needs to play gtown to make money. Why is that our problem?
