The Maryland Terrapins baseball team was a baseball team that represented the University of Maryland, College Park in the 2022 NCAA Division I baseball season. The Terrapins were members of the Big Ten Conference and played their home games at Bob "Turtle" Smith Stadium in College Park, Maryland. They were led by fifth-year head coach Rob Vaughn.

Maryland won their first regular season conference title in 51 years, and the Big Ten regular season title for the first time ever.

Previous season[edit]

The Terrapins finished the 2021 NCAA Division I baseball season 30–18 overall (28–16 conference) and second place in conference standings, as the season was limited to only conference games for all Big Ten teams due to the COVID-19 pandemic. Following the conclusion of the regular season, the Terrapins were selected to play in the 2021 NCAA tournament, beginning in the Greenville Regional. The Terrapins would eventually lose in the second round of the Greenville Regional to East Carolina by a score of 9–6.

Preseason[edit]

Pitching coach Corey Muscara left the team to become the pitching coach of the Wake Forest. The Terrapins promoted Anthony Papio from volunteer assistant to full-time assistant.[2] They then hired Mike Morrison to complete their coaching staff.[3]

For the 2022 Big Ten Conference poll, Maryland was voted to finish in fourth by the Big Ten Coaches.[4]
