Derik Queen, No. 25 Maryland flying high with Iowa next

Derik Queen played like a king Thursday night. When the freshman center leads his No. 25 Maryland Terrapins into a Big Ten Conference game against Iowa in College Park, Md., on Sunday, he figures to be on top of the Hawkeyes' scouting report. Queen is coming off a monster performance in an 83-75 win at Nebraska, pounding the Cornhuskers for a game-high 24 points and 11 rebounds. No freshman this year in Division I has more 20-10 performances than Queen's five, a list that includes national Player of the Year candidate Cooper Flagg of Duke and Ace Bailey of Rutgers.
