In retrospect, the snowstorm that pummeled the Washington-Baltimore area might have contributed to Maryland’s 74-68 victory over No. 3 Iowa on Thursday night. So did what happened during the team’s elongated trip to East Lansing, Mich.
According to senior guard Rasheed Sulaimon, the Terps held two players-only meetings in the aftermath of Saturday’s nine-point defeat at Michigan State, the first meeting taking place in the nearby hotel where the team was stuck until late Sunday afternoon.
Another came after the Terps returned to campus, which was shut down until Wednesday because of the snow.
