No. 8 Maryland women’s basketball flew right out of the gates and collected its ninth straight victory over a Big Ten opponent Thursday afternoon, dismantling No. 12 Michigan, 88-63, in what turned out to be one of the best wins of the Terps’ season.
“What separates this team from all the rest, they’re making it look so easy when it’s really not,” head coach Brenda Frese said. “And we’re doing it during a pandemic. They’re hungry to be great and they’re easy to coach. They play and practice the right way.”
With the win, Maryland clinched at least a share of the 2020-21 Big Ten Conference women’s basketball title, with a chance to take the whole thing Saturday against Penn State.
