This is the Maryland Minute, a short story followed by a roundup of Terps-related news.
Maryland track and field junior Jeff Kline finished off his season at the NCAA Outdoor Championships Wednesday. Kline was the only Terp to participate in the championships, starring in the men’s shot put finals.
Kline’s final throw measured 18.77 meters, good enough for an eighth place finish in his flight, and 19th overall out of 24 competitors.
He qualified for the finals after placing in the top 12 at the NCAA East First Round two weeks ago.
