The Terps improve to 8-0 thanks to a dominant first half.
If you believe a competitive basketball game consists of two teams, two hoops, two clocks and three referees, then Saturday afternoon's game between the No. 5 Maryland women's basketball team and Central Connecticut State met your criteria.
If you prefer your games to feel like a competition, however, the first half of Maryland's 86-43 victory was not for you. The Terps led all game, and the Blue Devils struggled to put points on the board, save for a run in the third quarter.
When sophomore center Emma Stroyan made a layup to put CCSU on the board with 7:53 remaining in the first quarter, the score was 6-2 in favor of Maryland.
