It wasn’t necessarily pretty by any means, but No. 21 Maryland men’s basketball is 2-0 after defeating George Washington on Thursday night in College Park. Maryland edged out the 71-64 win because of a better second-half performance and the Terps will look to make it three straight wins on Saturday afternoon.
Junior center Qudus Wahab excelled on Thursday night, recording his first double-double in a Maryland uniform. He tallied 18 points and added 15 rebounds in the win. Through two games, the transfer from Georgetown is averaging 17.5 points and 10.5 rebounds per game.
The Terps will now look ahead to their third matchup of the season, which will come against Vermont at 2 p.
