Terps Fall To Wisconsin, 59-54, In Big Ten Tournament
Carsen Edwards had 18 points for the Boilermakers (26-5, 15-3 Big Ten), who won their third straight after a three-game skid.
“I was disappointed in my team, maybe in myself, too”, Izzo said. “It’s a new season, it’s a clean slate, just try to make the most of it and be as special as you can be”. Happ led the balanced attack with 14 points and seven rebounds, as Wisconsin will now get another chance at Michigan State Friday at 11:00 central time. Huerter missed the first of two free throws with the Terps trailing 55-53 with 9.2 seconds to play.
Perhaps the most demoralizing possession of the game came with 12:44 left and Maryland trailing 39-37. The Boilermakers have won three in a row and will be the No. 3 seed in this week’s Big Ten tournament.
This one was tight as well. “I just didn’t think we played well”.
“For sure, we just played these guys, and we went toe-to-toe with them, punch for punch”, Iverson said.
The action on Thursday kicks off with Wisconsin vs. Maryland at 12:00 p.m. ET, before resuming in the mid-afternoon with Iowa vs. MI. Winston filled the stat sheet against the Badgers, dropping 20 points, dishing out five assists and grabbing six rebounds. Happ scored 13 points on 6-of-17 shooting from the field. “That’s got to be a staple”.
They will not talk about anything connected to the controversy that resulted from ESPN’s reporting on how sexual assault cases were handled by the MSU athletic department, including some that involved the basketball program eight years ago.
Wagner picked up his fourth foul with 9:52 left – a call that stoked the ire of numerous MI fans at the Garden – on what turned out to be a three-point play for Ryan Kriener.
Brevin Pritzl got the scoring going for Wisconsin, hitting the team’s first three, which would be their only one of the first half.
But rather than going to the line for a potential game-tying free throw, McMorris was called for an offensive foul.
“That’s just the heart and the battle the guys were willing to give”, Oliver said.
The Michigan State football team held its second practice of the spring on Thursday afternoon inside the Duffy Daugherty Football Building. In the Kansas-West Virginia game last week, free throws attempts were 35-2 in favor the Jayhawks. The sophomore sharpshooter made 3 of 4 from beyond the arc in the first half, with a couple buckets coming quickly in transition. Alexis Sevillian, who had all nine of her points in the fourth, answered with a clutch 3-pointer and Northwestern missed its last five shots to finish the game at 27 percent. Redshirt junior guard Dion Wiley was trying to inbound the ball near Maryland’s bench but couldn’t find anybody open. Anthony Cowan led Maryland with 15.7 points and 5.2 assists per game while Bruno Fernando was the Terrapins’ leading rebounder with 6.4 rebounds per game this season. “Coach Turgeon doesn’t throw the ball away”, Huerter said.
The month of March is upon us and it’s arguably the most intriguing time of the year for basketball fans. It really came down to two things. Today we did a much better job.
