Junior guard Eric Ayala scored a team-high 21 and sophomore forward Donta Scott (15 points, 11 rebounds) recorded his third career double double as the Maryland men’s basketball team upset No. 17 Minnesota, 63-49, at Williams Arena in Minneapolis on Saturday.
The win marks the first time in program history the Terps have recorded three road wins against Associated Press Top-25 opponents in one season. The victory also gave the Gophers their first loss at home this season. Minnesota entered the game 11-0.
Maryland held Minnesota to 30.4% shooting from the field, the Gophers’ second-worst shooting performance this season in Big Ten Conference play.
