Maryland women’s basketball has exacted its revenge against Michigan State, and its 71-55 win on Friday afternoon sends the Terrapins to the Big Ten tournament semifinals.
Back on Jan. 17, the Spartans dominated en route to a 77-60 blowout, giving the Terps their second (and worst) loss of the season. But the postseason is a different animal, and on the big stage, Maryland—which never trailed—showed just how good it can be.
Kaila Charles was invisible back in mid-January, scoring just three points on 1-of-5 shooting with four fouls. And to kick off the tournament, she was well on her way to another poor showing, missing seven of her first eight field goals.
