The Maryland men's basketball team beat South Dakota State, 79-74, in an NCAA Tournament first-round game in Spokane, Wash., on Friday. The Terps jumped out to a double-digit lead by halftime, but they collapsed late in the game and nearly let the Jackrabbits upset them. They didn't, however, and as a result, the Terrapins will face the South Region's No. 13 seed, Hawaii, on the same floor on Sunday, with a trip to the Sweet 16 at stake.
For Maryland, Melo Trimble delivered one of his better games in months, although fouls limited him and he faded late.
