After its first loss of the season, Maryland women’s basketball went on the road and pulled out a scrappy victory over Wisconsin, 83-68.
Here are three takeaways from the game.
Maryland felt its absences
For the first time all season, Maryland had to play without multiple members of its key seven-woman rotation.
Sarah Te-Biasu and Saylor Poffenbarger, who have both been regular starters, were out for the Terps Saturday with an ankle injury and illness, respectively.
Maryland overcame their absences, but not without struggles and scares along the way.
The Terps let a Wisconsin team that is now 1-5 in Big Ten play hang around for most of the game.
