After winning its Big Ten opener and first true road game of the season on Thursday, Maryland women’s basketball returns home to take on Ohio State. The two top-10 teams will square off at noon Saturday at the Xfinity Center, and the game will be nationally televised on CBS.
The Buckeyes are widely regarded as Maryland’s toughest foe in the conference. They boast one of the nation’s best backcourts, headed by the duo of Kelsey Mitchell and Ameryst Alston. This team has already faced more than its fair share of stiff competition thus far. In their first 12 games, the Buckeyes played and lost to each of the top-3 teams in the preseason polls (UConn, South Carolina, Notre Dame), but they also beat then-No.
