“Don’t sleep on Maryland”: The Terps are embracing being named a No. 2 seed for NCAA Tournament

With eight minutes to go in the final quarter of the Big Ten tournament championship game, Maryland women’s basketball was up 84-59 against Iowa.

As the Hawkeyes looked to shorten the Terps’ lead, sophomore forward Faith Masonius got her hands on the ball at the baseline under Iowa’s basket and chased after it, determined to keep the play inbounds. She then threw a pass behind her back to senior forward Chloe Bibby, who quickly got the ball to senior guard Katie Benzan at the top of the arc. Benzan dribbled the ball once and leapt to lob the ball all the way to the other end of the court to sophomore guard Ashley Owusu on the other side of the court.
