The No. 6 Gophers routed Maryland 25-21, 25-19, 25-21 on Friday in Big Ten volleyball to keep their record perfect against the Terrapins and move into a tie for first place in the conference race.

Minnesota (18-3, 12-1 Big Ten) is 13-0 all-time vs. Maryland, 10-0 since the Terrapins became conference members in 2014.

Adanna Rollins led the Gophers with 13 kills and 12 digs. Erika Pritchard of Maryland (12-13, 5-8) had those same numbers except in reverse — 12 kills, 13 digs.

The Twins named Daniel Adler and Jeremy Zoll assistant general managers.

Both were baseball operations officials, as were Alex Hassan, who was named director of player development, and Jeremy Raadt, who was promoted to director of baseball systems.

Zoll has been the team's director of minor league operations since 2017 and will continue in that role while also assisting at the major league level. He worked for the Angels and Dodgers before.

Hassan joined the Twins early last year as assistant director of player development. He played eight professional seasons as an outfielder before working in 2017 as Dodgers' player development consultant.

Raadt has been with the Twins since 2014 as manager of baseball systems and will now lead the team's technology department.
