INDIANAPOLIS -- Michigan coach Juwan Howard was ejected midway through the second half after getting into a shouting match with the Maryland bench in the Big Ten tournament quarterfinals Friday.
The fourth-ranked and top-seeded Wolverines advanced to the semifinals with a 79-66 victory and will take on No. 9 Ohio State or No. 21 Purdue in Saturday's first semifinal game.
Michigan swung the game by ending the first half on a 16-2 run and starting the second half on an 11-4 spurt. But during a timeout with 10:44 to go, Howard walked toward midcourt and shouted toward the Maryland bench.
