Your, my, and our Iowa Hawkeyes (15-7, 5-6) return to action Thursday, heading east in search of a season sweep of the Maryland Terrapins (11-12, 3-9).
Iowa won a back-and-forth game with Maryland in Carver-Hawkeye Arena on January 3, 80-75. In a surprise to absolutely no one, Keegan Murray led the way for Iowa, erupting for 35 points, 8 rebounds, and 3 blocks while shooting 14-21 from the floor and 5-6 from 3. Iowa initially led the game by 12 and looked to be on the verge of a rout, but the Hawks hit a rut offensively, allowing Maryland to take a 40-36 lead at half.
