As of December 13, 2017; Rankings from United Soccer Coaches

The season took a downturn towards the end as the Terrapins, then-ranked third in the nation went on a five match losing streak, that saw them fall out of the national rankings, and suffer a quarterfinal-bounce from the 2017 Big Ten Conference Men's Soccer Tournament. Nevertheless, the Terrapins qualified via an at-large for the NCAA Division I Men's Soccer Tournament for the 17th consecutive season. In their sole NCAA Tournament match this season, the Terps hosted Albany, where they lost in penalties.

Background

During the 2016 regular season, Maryland finished as the winners of the regular season as well as the Big Ten Tournament.[1][2] However, the team lost in the second round of the NCAA Tournament to Providence.[3]
