No. 21 Maryland men’s basketball edges out George Washington, 71-64

With Maryland leading by three and just over a minute left in the game, transfer guard Fatts Russell had the ball on the left wing. He took two dribbles, stepped back and let it go with him, and the crowd, hoping it would be the dagger that put the Colonials away.

Russell nailed the three, giving Maryland a six-point lead and securing the win. In just his second game in a Maryland uniform, Russell established himself as a Terp, knocking down a clutch shot as many Maryland guards have done before him.

Maryland came back from a lackluster first half to defeat George Washington, 71-64, in College Park on Thursday night.
