Three takeaways from Maryland men’s basketball’s loss to Rutgers

Maryland men’s basketball entered this one after winning in double-overtime against Northwestern on the road and came back to College Park searching for that second conference win.

Although Rutgers had not been successful on road this season, that changed on Saturday when the Terps could not capitalize on a first half lead as they fell to Rutgers 70-59 and to 1-5 in conference play.

Here are three takeaways from the loss.

The game marked Julian Reese’s first career start in his young collegiate career.

Within his first two minutes on the court, Reese pulled in three of the Terps’ four rebounds, two of them being offensive boards.
