Despite a slow start, Maryland men’s basketball dominated St. Peters, 75-45, after eight days of rest to snap a three-game losing streak.
Sophomore forward Julian Reese was out with a right shoulder injury, and while his absence was noticeable, it didn’t matter too much against a bad Peacocks team that had a ton of roster turnover after a Cinderella run in the NCAA Tournament last season.
Graduate forward Patrick Emilien replaced Reese in the starting lineup and impressed with 10 points. He was one of three Terps in double figures, joining transfer guard Jahmir Young with 14 and senior guard Hakim Hart with 20.
