Maryland men’s basketball returns from Thanksgiving break on Friday to welcome Marshall to the Xfinity Center. The Thundering Herd represent the toughest challenge the Terps have faced this young season.
Both teams enter the matchup undefeated, though Maryland (5-0) has one more win in an additional outing. Each enters Friday with mutual wins over Hofstra, Mount St. Mary’s and North Carolina A&T. It’s the fifth straight season Mark Turgeon’s team has started 5-0, while a win over Maryland would be just the third 5-0 start since the 1996-97 season for Marshall.
The Terps lead the all-time series 3-2, with wins in the last three matchups.
