Maryland men’s basketball blown out at home by No. 5 Iowa, 89-67, suffers third straight loss

Forward Luka Garza was one of four players who scored in double figures to lead the No. 5 Iowa men’s basketball team to an 89-67 win over Maryland at Xfinity Center on Thursday night.

Garza, the reigning Big Ten Player of the Year and a former star at nearby Maret High School in Washington, led the way for the Hawkeyes with a game-high 24 points and seven rebounds.

Maryland (6-6, 1-5 Big Ten), which suffered its second-worst home loss in the Mark Turgeon era after a 24-point loss to Michigan on Feb. 24, 2018, and its third straight defeat his season, trailed by as many as 26 points in the second half.
