After being selected as the favorites to win the Big Ten conference, Maryland women’s basketball delivered on those expectations in the regular season. A 15-3 conference record was enough to take first place and earn the Terrapins a No. 1 seed in the conference tournament. With that top spot, they received a double bye and the first game on Quarterfinals Friday.
Against a Michigan State team to whom they had already lost this season, the Terps steamrolled in the second half to a 71-55 blowout victory to advance to the Big Ten semifinals.
Now, Maryland will face the Wolverines as it hopes to sweep the state of Michigan in the Big Ten tournament.
