Ranked as high as No. 66 earlier in the dual season, the Terrapins (2-5) swept through doubles by a combined score of 18-6 for the first point and then claimed three singles points in straight sets en route to the win.
Senior Lauren Davis led BU (3-4) by rolling to a 6-4, 6-2 win over former All-ACC honoree Alexandra Stanova at No. 2 singles.
