No. 8 Maryland women's basketball won its second game in a row on Sunday, defeating Rutgers on the road, 73-59.
“Obviously, we’re excited to be able to get our first win in conference, to start conference play,” head coach Brenda Frese said. “I thought, like it typically is, I mean I thought Rutgers played really, really hard. I thought they competed for 40 minutes. They were physical, they were aggressive, they beat us on the glass. Really slowed the tempo down for us, and we were fortunate to be able to come out with a win.”
Rutgers stuck around with Maryland early, shooting 54% from the field and only trailing by two after the first quarter.
