Big Ten road games have often been mini family reunions for Maryland coach Mark Turgeon.
Freshman wing Kevin Huerter will have his own reunion of sorts Thursday night when the No. 25 Terps play at Carver-Hawkeye Arena.
Huerter grew up around the Siena College program when Fran McCaffery -- now at Iowa -- coached at the upstate New York school. Huerter’s father, Tom, played at Siena in the 1980s and served as a radio and television analyst for the Saints for several years.
“I’m still good friends with his son [Connor, currently a high schoo senior and a top-100 ranked player]," Huerter said of McCaffery.
