Indiana closed out the regular season in convincing fashion on Sunday afternoon with an 80-62 win over Maryland at Assembly Hall. The win completed a 17-0 season on Branch McCracken Court and moved the Hoosiers to 25-6.
Here’s a look at five takeaways from the win over the Terrapins:
· Williams continues his ascent: Indiana junior wing Troy Williams was justifiably criticized for his poor performance in a loss on Feb. 14 at Michigan State, but rather than letting the game hang over him, he’s responded in resounding fashion.
Williams was once again brilliant on Sunday afternoon in scoring a game-high 23 points, including an impressive stretch to open the second half where Maryland simply could not keep him out of the lane.
