Despite early-season doubts, Maryland women’s basketball is a national contender again

Senior guards Diamond Miller and Abby Meyers looked at each other in agreement when asked when they felt the team hit a new gear and the season started to turn around.

“The UConn game, for sure,” they jointly said.

On Dec. 11, for the first time in program history, Maryland women’s basketball took down UConn. Despite the Huskies being shorthanded, the win signaled a change in the team’s mentality going forward.

“Was it a perfect game? No game is, but we’re definitely growing in that direction,” Maryland head coach Brenda Frese said after the 85-78 win.
