Following her second scoreless performance of the season, sophomore guard Taylor Mikesell took to the floor in Raleigh, North Carolina, looking to get back on track.
Mikesell had only hit one of her last eight attempts from deep, but in the first 10 seconds of the game, she stepped into a three-pointer, set her feet and sunk it to put No. 9 Maryland women’s basketball ahead to start. Just over a minute later, Mikesell connected on another three from the other side of the floor.
The Terp attack was hot from the perimeter all night long against NC State in the Big Ten/ACC Challenge, but couldn’t find their rhythm from the rest of the floor in the 66-59 loss.
