Takeaways from No. 20 Maryland women’s basketball’s loss to No. 8 UConn

No. 20 Maryland women’s basketball looked to bounce back Thursday after being blown out by No. 1 South Carolina on Sunday. Instead, the Terps suffered a similar loss at No. 8 UConn, 80-48.

Here are some takeaways from Maryland’s second straight loss to a top-10 opponent.

Maryland’s shot selection was rushed throughout

Even though it lost by over 30 points against South Carolina, Maryland shot the ball well. It made 40.8% of its shots and went 45.5% from three-point range.

Thursday was a different story, as UConn’s defense forced Maryland’s offense to look out of rhythm throughout.
