Maryland women’s basketball fell to the eventual national championship runner-up South Carolina in the Sweet 16, but its resilience proved strong when it mattered most.
“You’re going to have moments that you are going to go through high highs and low lows,” head coach Brenda Frese said, “and for them (the team), they can see how resilient they were through the course of the season and were able to come back out on top.”
The Terps rolled into the new year with a 14-0 record, but difficulties began once the calendar turned to 2025.
“This [season] ranked right up there because there were so many highs to start the season out and the win streak we had, and then the lows through the adversity that we faced with all the injuries,” Frese said.
