Maryland basketball finished a 13-7 Big Ten season Friday night with a win over Minnesota. With conference play now complete for all teams, that mark places the Terps in fifth place.
Wisconsin withstood a furious charge from Ohio State on Sunday afternoon, winning 73-67 in overtime to finish 14-6 in the league and secure fourth place. After winning its own game, Maryland needed victories from Purdue, Michigan State and Ohio State this weekend in order to land the No. 4 seed in the conference tournament. While the first two teams held up their end, the double-bye looked lost with Wisconsin up 23 on the Buckeyes early in the second half.
