Sitting in the press room after Thursday’s 87-62 win over Ohio, Maryland point guard Anthony Cowan Jr. quickly scanned the stat sheet and frowned.
His eyes had gone straight to the three turnovers he committed, not to the 12 points, eight rebounds and seven assists he had collected along the way.
“Too many,” he said of the turnovers.
Though not all completely his fault — one came when he passed the ball ahead to Darryl Morsell (Mount Saint Joseph) as the freshman guard fell to the court after being inadvertently tripped — Cowan knows what his role has become.
