Three takeaways from No. 6 Maryland men’s basketball 74-55 win over Fairfield

Although it got off to another slow start Tuesday night, No. 6 Maryland men’s basketball remains unbeaten after a 74-55 victory over Fairfield.

Here’s our biggest takeaways from the Terps’ fourth victory of the season.

1. Free throw shooting was sub-par

Entering into the matchup against Fairfield, Maryland was shooting an average of 70 percent from the line.

But despite getting into the bonus nine minutes into the game, the Terps went 14-for-25 from the line for a season low 56 percent from the charity stripe. Sophomore Jalen Smith was the only player who made more than two free throws, going 7-for-9 from the line.
