COLLEGE PARK, MD – Maryland Athletics and Blueprint Sports have named Mandy Allendorfer the new executive director of One Maryland, the official NIL (name, image, and likeness) entity supporting Terp student-athletes. Allendorfer will lead the Terps’ efforts in the new era of NIL partnerships, events, and media opportunities for all Maryland student-athletes across 20 sports. The parties also announced a multi-year partnership extension that establishes Blueprint Sports as the internal NIL marketing agency for Maryland Athletics, helping solidify the Terps’ position as a leader in the hyper-competitive NIL marketing and sponsorship space.
Allendorfer assumes the new role after serving as the Director of Collegiate Partnerships for Athletes First, an NFL agency representing elite players, coaches, personnel and broadcasters, where she represented, among others, former Terp quarterback Taulia Tagovailoa. Prior to that, Allendorfer worked for 18 years for super-agent Scott Boras at the Boras Corporation as the Director of Strategic Marketing and Collegiate Partnerships and other roles. Allendorfer is herself a former Terp student-athlete, competing in softball from 2000-03, with a career batting average of .429 and a perfect 1.000 fielding percentage.
“It is the professional and personal honor of a lifetime to return to Maryland in this new role, just as the University deepens its partnership with Blueprint Sports,” said Allendorfer. “As a former Terp student-athlete, this opportunity is deeply personal. I’m passionate about creating pathways for our athletes to thrive on the field, in the classroom, and now in building their personal brands. Together, we’ll ensure Maryland is at the forefront of NIL innovation and athlete empowerment.”
“We are building a best-in-class NIL ecosystem here at Maryland,” said Brian Ullmann, Deputy Athletics Director. “We are excited to extend our partnership with Blueprint and are thrilled to bring Mandy back into the Maryland family. Her hire is a home run.”
“We are proud to extend our partnership with Maryland Athletics and its outstanding leadership team,” said Rob Sine, CEO of Blueprint Sports. “From the start, Maryland has demonstrated such forward-thinking leadership in the NIL space, and we’re excited to continue that momentum with Mandy at the helm. Maryland exemplifies the kind of creative, data-driven athletic department we strive to support as we shape the future of collegiate athletics through innovative NIL data and revenue solutions.”

STOCKHOLM (AP) — The United States prevailed over Switzerland 1-0 in overtime of the final of the ice hockey world championship on Sunday.

The United States prevailed over Switzerland 1-0 in overtime to claim the American men’s first ice hockey world championship at the tournament since 1933.
Tage Thompson wristed a shot past goaltender Leonardo Genoni from the top of the right circle for the winner 2:02 into overtime with the 40th shot on goal. Logan Cooley and Brady Skjei provided the assists and goaltender Jeremy Swayman shut out the Swiss with 25 saves.
“We did it, the wait is over,” Swayman said in a social media post. “Thanks for sticking along with us. It’s going to be a great summer.”
The Americans were also awarded the title in 1960 when they won the Olympic tournament and the worlds did not take place. Team USA’s last men’s Olympic title came thanks to the Miracle On Ice at the 1980 Games.
Many of the world’s top players do not take part at the worlds as it takes place during the NHL playoffs, while others choose to rest after the long and grueling regular season. While most of the US players at this year’s tournament are on NHL teams, there are also a number of college players. The US had lost 12 world championship semi-finals in succession before they beat Sweden on Saturday.
As the US posed for photos after their win, they held up the jersey of Johnny Gaudreau who was struck and killed by a car along with his brother, Matthew, in August. A man accused of killing the NHL star and his brother while drunk driving is awaiting trial.
Earlier, Mikael Backlund and Marcus Johansson scored two goals each as Sweden beat Denmark 6-2 to take the bronze medal. It was the second straight third-place finish for Sweden while fourth place was the best-ever result for Denmark.
Lucas Raymond and Mika Zibanejad also scored for the Swedes while Nick Olesen and Nikolaj Ehlers scored for Denmark.
