Maryland men’s basketball just couldn’t close it out.
Near the end of regulation Saturday against Ohio State, Donta Scott missed a pair of free throws which would have put the Terps ahead. Jahmir Young then missed a potential game-winner at the buzzer.
In the first overtime, Julian Reese missed a pair of free throws in the final minute. And Young’s attempt at the buzzer once again fell off the mark. In double overtime, Reese missed two more free throws, and Scott fumbled the ball away on Maryland’s final two possessions. The Terps scored zero points in the last 2:37 of the final overtime period.
