Kaila Charles' late free throws lift Maryland women to Big Ten final

Kaila Charles made two free throws with 10.3 seconds left to help No. 8 Maryland top Michigan 73-72 on Saturday for the program's 1,000th victory.

Charles finished with 22 points as the Terps (28-3) advanced to their fifth consecutive Big Ten Tournament title game. It was their 13th win in their last 14 games.

Nicole Munger scored 20 points for Michigan (21-11), which fumbled away an inbounds pass and a chance for the win with 1.5 seconds left. Naz Hillmon had 16.

The Wolverines almost ruined Maryland's milestone moment by pushing the regular-season conference champs to the wire.
