Takeaways from Maryland women’s basketball’s loss to No. 10 Indiana

Maryland women’s basketball fell to two games below .500 in conference play Wednesday night when it lost at home to No. 10 Indiana, 87-73.

Here are three takeaways from the contest.

Indiana’s quick start made a comeback impossible

Ultimately, the Hoosiers’ rapid start Wednesday proved too insurmountable for the Terps to overcome, even with a strong second-half effort.

While the Hoosiers’ best player is undoubtedly All-American forward Mackenzie Holmes, they didn’t emphasize feeding her the ball early on. Instead, it was their perimeter shooting that shined.

The second-best 3-point shooting team in the conference made four of its first seven triples and never looked back, scoring 52 points in the opening 20 minutes.
