The Terps improve to 6-0 on the season after a second-half surge lifts them past Cleveland State.
The week-long Thanksgiving feast continued into Saturday night for the No. 2 ranked Terrapins as they defeated the Cleveland State Vikings 80 to 63 behind Robert Carter's 17-point, 8-rebound night.
Jared Nickens set a career-high in points, totaling 16 on 8 attempts, hitting 4 threes pointers. He was a spark off the bench in Maryland's second consecutive blowout victory.
The Terps opened the game atypically, driving to the rim on every possession early and didn't fire a 3-point attempt until more than five minutes into the game when Robert Carter knocked his second down his second of the season.
