PHOTOS: Ohio State Upends Second-Ranked Maryland, 98-87

Though it was playing without its top rebounder and second-leading scorer, the Ohio State women's basketball team knocked off No. 2 Maryland, 98-87, on Monday night.

National Player of the Year candidate Kelsey Mitchell finished with a game-high 31 points and five assists to lead the Buckeyes to perhaps their biggest win in her three-year career.

Ohio State opened the game on fire, shooting 78 percent from the field to lead 35-22 after one quarter. Maryland cut the deficit to two with 14-0 run to close out the third quarter, but the Buckeyes never relinquished the lead.
