Anthony Cowan's big 3, second-half surge help No. 19 Maryland escape with win over Wisconsin

Anthony Cowan Jr. was a senior at St. John’s College High in Washington three years ago when then-Maryland sophomore Melo Trimble hit a game-winning, desperation 3-pointer for Maryland that beat Wisconsin at the Kohl Center in Madison.

Cowan was in the basement of his family’s home in Bowie, watching the game on television with his father.

No compatible source was found for this media.

“I was like, ‘knockdown’ soon as it left his hand,” Cowan recalled Monday night.

Cowan wasn’t thinking about Trimble’s game-winner when he hit his 3 with 44 seconds left and the Terps down one after leading the Badgers by as many as 21 points early in the second half at Xfinity Center.
