Beloved Maryland Alumna, Former Terrapins Basketball Captain, and Brick Bodies CEO Vicki Brick Dies Unexpectedly, Leaving Legacy of Athletic Excellence, Leadership, and Community Impact
The Maryland Terrapins community and fitness industry across Maryland are mourning the devastating loss of Vicki Brick, a beloved former University of Maryland basketball player, loyal alumna, and the dynamic CEO of Brick Bodies Fitness Services. Vicki passed away unexpectedly, leaving behind a legacy of athletic excellence, leadership, and heartfelt dedication to the well-being of others.
From 2000 to 2004, Vicki Brick proudly wore the Terrapins jersey, making a name for herself as a formidable guard on the court and a standout student off it. Known for her work ethic, intelligence, and leadership, she was named to the All-ACC Academic Team in all four years of her college career—an impressive feat reflecting her commitment to both sports and scholarship. During her time at Maryland, she maintained a shooting percentage of over 40% from the field, averaged 5.7 points per game, and racked up 364 career assists.
In her senior year, she served as team captain, helping lead the Terrapins to the second round of the NCAA Tournament—a proud moment that underscored her value not only as an athlete but as a leader who inspired her teammates and coaches alike.
Following her college years, Vicki transitioned into a new chapter of leadership, taking the helm of her family’s business, Brick Bodies Fitness Services. As CEO, she expanded the brand’s presence, modernized its operations, and transformed the company into a cornerstone of Maryland’s fitness and wellness landscape. But her impact extended far beyond gym walls—she believed in empowering people through health and movement, uplifting countless individuals on their fitness journeys with positivity and grace.
Those who worked with her often describe her as a force of nature: driven, compassionate, and deeply invested in the lives of those around her. Vicki was more than an executive—she was a mentor, a friend, and an advocate for both mental and physical health.
The news of her passing has sent shockwaves through both the athletic and fitness communities. Tributes have poured in from former teammates, coaches, clients, and community members who knew her not just for her accomplishments, but for the kindness and light she brought into every room she entered.
“Our family is deeply saddened to hear of the passing of a Terp alumna and friend, Vicki Brick,” read a statement from the Maryland Terrapins. “Our hearts go out to Vicki’s family and the Brick Bodies family. She will always be remembered for her leadership, determination, and enduring spirit.”
Vicki’s legacy is one of inspiration—proof of what can be accomplished with passion, discipline, and love. She leaves behind a grieving family, a loyal staff, devoted friends, and a community of athletes, clients, and admirers who will carry her spirit forward.
Funeral arrangements and memorial details are expected to be announced in the coming days, as her family and the wider Maryland community gather to celebrate the extraordinary life of Vicki Brick—a woman who truly made a difference.
