The Big East’s rough outing in the Gavitt Games continues.
The Maryland Terrapins welcomed the Butler Bulldogs to College Park on Wednesday night. In turn, the Terps didn’t exactly give them a warm greeting. Quite the opposite, in fact. Thanks to a prodigious showing from the field, the Terrapins celebrated a 79-65 win to give the Big Ten a 3-1 lead.
Maryland held Butler to just 34.3 percent from the field and 36.4 percent from the 3-point line. On the bright side, Butler made all of their free throws. But those 11 made gimmes didn’t mater in the end.
