No. 21 Maryland men’s basketball vs. George Washington preview

No. 21 Maryland men’s basketball is off to a 1-0 start after claiming an 83-69 win over Quinnipiac in the season-opener this past Tuesday.

Maryland shot just shy under 50% from the field in the program’s first home win of the season and five different Terps scored in double-figures. Center Qudus Wahab led Maryland in scoring, totaling 17 points on 7-for-10 shooting and six rebounds, two assists and two blocks.

“It’s just nice to have low-post scoring, we couldn’t do that last year,” head coach Mark Turgeon said of Wahab. “We just call a play and throw it in there, and then teams will start doubling and we got a lot of good players out there so we can make them pay, so it’s nice to have.
