Huskers Fall by Eight at Maryland

The Nebraska men's basketball team battled for 40 minutes Wednesday night at Maryland, but the Huskers' late comeback attempt fell short in a 79-71 loss to the Terrapins.

Nebraska, playing its third road game in four days, trailed by only three early in the second half, before Maryland used a 13-0 run to pull away. The Huskers then fell behind by many as 21 but made it close down the stretch before falling by eight.

Teddy Allen led the Huskers with 25 points, one shy of his career high. Allen was 8-of-12 from the field – including 4-of-6 from the 3-point line – while making all five of his free-throw attempts.
