After winning four straight contests, No. 16 Maryland men’s basketball was tasked with a matchup that ultimately resulted in a heartbreaking loss.
After 39 minutes of gritty, defensive-laden basketball, No. 8 Michigan State’s Tre Holloman heaved a prayer from beyond half court that sank through the net as time expired. The 58-55 loss was the Terps’ sixth conference defeat of the season.
Now, Maryland turns its attention to a struggling Penn State squad.
With just five wins in Big Ten play, the Nittany Lions are second-to-last in the conference standings. Among its few conference victories include Nebraska, Rutgers and Northwestern.
