No. 21 Maryland men’s basketball is riding the momentum of its 83-69 season-opener win over Quinnipiac this past Tuesday.
Center Qudus Wahab and guard Fatts Russell made their regular-season debuts, combining for 29 points in College Park. Freshman forward Julian Reese also bursted onto the scene with 11 points in 19 minutes on the floor. The Baltimore native added seven rebounds and three blocks in the win. Senior guard Eric Ayala scored 13 points and had a team-high eight rebounds.
Maryland is now 1-0 and will turn its attention to the George Washington Colonials on Thursday. The meeting with the Colonials will be the second of five total home games the Terps will have to kick off the season.
