Maryland’s Damonte Dodd has a career night in win over Illinois State

RIVIERA MAYA, Mexico — Maryland center Damonte Dodd has never tried to be someone other than himself on the court, and even after he posted a career-high 13 points in Tuesday’s 77-66 win over Illinois State, he was still marveling at his three blocks after the game. His identity has long been molded by his defensive capabilities, which helped give him confidence on the other end as the game progressed against the Redbirds.

Dodd’s most impressive sequence on Tuesday came with just over 13 minutes to play and Maryland clinging to a 44-43 lead.
