COLLEGE PARK, Md. -- Sixth-ranked Maryland won the Big Ten regular season title Sunday, getting a career-high 29 points from Tierney Pfirman and 24 from Brionna Jones in a surprisingly lopsided 110-77 victory over Minnesota.
The Terrapins (27-3, 16-2) will enter the Big Ten Tournament as the No. 1 seed for a second straight season. Maryland closed with six consecutive wins to overtake Ohio State, which dealt the Terrapins both their league losses.
Coming off two straight appearances in the Final Four, Maryland will almost certainly open the NCAA Tournament at home next month.
Rachel Banham, the Big Ten's leading scorer, finished with 26 for Minnesota (19-10, 11-7).
