ANN ARBOR, Mich. — Jakia Brown-Turner caught the lob with 0.6 seconds remaining in overtime, hung in the air to the left of the basket and put the ball up before landing on the court. The ball rolled around the rim, hanging on the iron for what seemed an eternity, then rolled off. The final buzzer sounded, signaling a 79-77 loss to Michigan on Wednesday night — as painful of a defeat as the Maryland women’s basketball team has endured this season.
The Terrapins blew a 15-point halftime lead, collapsing amid offensive fouls, disappearing defense, a lack of rebounding and an ejection.
