Michigan basketball entered Saturday needing a win after an upset loss at Penn State on Tuesday.
It found one, thanks to a stingy defense that forced plenty of turnovers and bad shots, and an offense that scored enough down the stretch.
The sixth-ranked Wolverines took an early lead and never trailed in a 65-52 win over No. 24 Maryland.
Michigan (23-3, 12-3 Big Ten) opened up the game with a 14-2 run and held Maryland (19-7, 10-5) to 18 points in the first half.
The Wolverines eventually went cold from the field, which allowed the Terrapins to get back into the game.
