March basketball is just about here. For No. 21 Maryland men’s basketball (20-9, 11-7 Big Ten), opportunity awaits. Maryland hopes to begin a fruitful month with a successful trip to Ohio State (12-17, 4-14 ) Wednesday.
The Terps, winners of eight of their last 10 games, have checked back into the AP poll for their first ranking since the Dec. 12 poll. Not only is Maryland receiving national love, but it is in the thick of an intense Big Ten race. The Terps sit in a tie for second in the Big Ten with Indiana, Michigan and Northwestern, and they hold tiebreakers over each of them.
