COLLEGE PARK, Md. — The Maryland Terrapins improved to 2-0 on the season with a 20-9 victory over Northern Illinois on Friday, extending the nation's longest non-conference winning streak to 17 games.

Head coach Mike Locksley said he doesn't take the team's early success for granted as they continue to develop.

"We definitely have to acknowledge that we've been able to handle the first two opportunities and get out with wins while still being able to grow, learn, and mature as a team," Locksley said.

The Terrapins showed significant improvement in discipline after committing 16 penalties in their season opener. That number dropped dramatically to just three penalties against Northern Illinois.
