Poor shooting stymies Michigan in loss to Ohio State

Columbus, Ohio — That screeching sound you heard?

That was Michigan’s ride to the NCAA Tournament coming to a sudden and stunning halt. Whether it finds a feasible detour to the Big Dance remains to be seen.

Another cold shooting night, combined with another missed game by Caris LeVert, doomed Michigan in a 76-66 loss to Ohio State on Tuesday night at Value City Arena.

All the momentum Michigan built last week with a win over then-No. 18 Purdue might have been zapped by an uninspired performance against rival Ohio State, which handed the Wolverines their first loss to an unranked opponent this season.
