Maryland men’s basketball tips off its conference schedule with a matchup against No. 21 Rutgers after dropping its first game of the season in blowout fashion at Clemson last week.
In the 67-51 loss to the Tigers, Maryland converted just one of eight three-pointers in the first half. Forward Donta Scott led the team with 11 points — nailing 3-of-4 from downtown — along with six rebounds and three blocks.
It’s been 10 days since the Terps last played at Xfinity Center, when Hakim Hart’s 32 points led Maryland to a 90-57 thumping of Saint Peter’s.
