When Maryland head coach Brenda Frese and South Carolina head coach Dawn Staley put pen to paper on April 19, 2022, inking a home-and-home series, it became one of the most anticipated matchups in women’s college basketball this season and had an atmosphere akin to March Madness.

The Terps had their hands full dealing with Boston’s dominance on the court all night long.
