Maryland junior guard Melo Trimble resembled his old, younger self Wednesday at Welsh-Ryan Arena, both in terms of facial hair didn't have and the shooting touch he always seems to have against Northwestern.
In the midst of a four-game shooting slump, Trimble took over the game early against the Wildcats, and wasn’t finished until he had produced one of the more spectacular shooting performances of his career.
Trimble finished with a career-high 32 points on 12-of-17 shooting, including 4-of-5 on 3-pointers, to lead the No. 23 Terps to a much-needed 74-64 victory over Northwestern, which was coming off an upset of then-No.
