COLLEGE PARK, Md. (AP) — Oluchi Okananwa and Isimenme Ozzy-Momodu scored 15 points apiece and No. 10 Maryland pulled away from UMBC in the second half for an 87-54 victory Thursday night.

Indiana transfer Yarden Garzon had 12 points for the Terrapins (2-0), who got scoring from 12 players. Saylor Poffenbarger added 11 points.

Jade Tillman led the Retrievers (1-1) with 17 points.

Maryland remained without injured guards Kaylene Smikle (leg) and Bri McDaniel (knee), returnees who have yet to play this season. Graduate guard Mir McLean, another holdover from last year’s Sweet 16 team, departed in the third quarter while holding her left shoulder and did not return.
