Maryland women’s basketball team strengthens Big Ten lead with 94-62 rout of Minnesota

Coach Brenda Frese certainly wouldn’t want to oppose her Maryland women’s basketball team the way it’s playing right now.

The No. 9 Terps boosted their winning streak to five games with a dominant 94-62 win over Minnesota on Saturday, cementing their solitary position atop the Big Ten standings (12-1) and completing the season sweep.

With just four regular season games and one home game remaining, Maryland couldn’t be in a better spot. After playing twice in the past three days, the Terps (16-2) continue their busy stretch with games Tuesday and Thursday.

“We need to have these kind of games because this is what you’re going to play in the Big Ten tournament as well as the NCAAs,” Frese said, “where it’s back-to-back games or play a game, a day in between, and play again.
