Maryland vs LSU Preview
Both teams narrowly escaped upsets in the first round.
The Terrapins trailed No. 11 seed Belmont by seven with just under seven minutes remaining. They outscored the Bruins 19-10 the rest of the way for a 79-77 victory.
“I told the guys, just an honor and a privilege to be a part of a game like that this time of a year, and to come out on top makes it real special,” Maryland head coach Mark Turgeon said, according to The Washington Post.
It was their first tournament win since 2016, when they made the Sweet 16 before falling to No. 1 seed Kansas.
“Every single fan, everybody watching us, consistently just tries to bring us down, telling us, ‘Oh, they’re going to lose. They haven’t had a postseason win in forever,'” Maryland freshman guard Aaron Wiggins said, according to the Post. “But we were able to get one tonight, and it’s an awesome feeling.”
He added: “Crazy moment to be a part of. Playing in such an intense game all the way down to the last second. Every single play counted.”
Sophomore big man Bruno Fernando had a beastly game for the Terps, scoring 14 points to go with 13 rebounds, four assists, two steals, and a pair of blocks.
“We just tried to do everything we could, man,” Fernando said of the team’s offense in the second half, per the Post. “We ran sets. We did everything. We got transition buckets.”
LSU led No. 14 seed Yale by 16 at halftime, but the Bulldogs stormed back in the second half, cutting the lead to four with 33 seconds remaining.
“My team did a wonderful job today,” LSU freshman forward Emmitt Williams said, according to The Times-Picayune. “We stayed together. People always think just because we don’t have our head coach here that we’re supposed to break up, but that just made us stronger.”
Neither time shot well, but LSU got to the line 28 times, hitting 19 free throws. Yale went 12-of-15 from the stripe.
In the second half, Williams dove into the stands for a loose ball, taking on a spilled soda.
“It lets you know I’ll do anything for my team,” Williams said, per The Times-Picayune. “When I dove in the air, I was like, ‘Oh crap. I’m about to fall.’ I didn’t know I spilled that much soda on my jersey. I look like I went through a whole train wreck. It’s going to need a lot of bleach.
“Soda, sweat and blood. What a great combination.”
