No. 17 Maryland women’s basketball handily defeated George Mason, 88-51, to start the season on a good note as the Terps controlled the tempo right from the opening tip. However, the victory did not come without some heartache.
Maryland was tested early.
Senior forward Diamond Miller left the game in the second quarter with what appeared to be a knee injury. She did not return in the contest. Head coach Brenda Frese said the injury was “nothing too serious,” and that Miller will be checked out again when they return to College Park.
The same injury occurred with Emma Chardon, who also left the game and did not return.
