Maryland defeated Northern Colorado in a non-conference bout, 89-53, on Sunday, winning its school-record 26th regular season game. Prior to taking on the Bears, the Terps closed out the ACC slate with a dominating 89-63 victory over Clemson, claiming their 12th conference win of the season, the most in 14 years.
Recording their best showing in the ACC standings in 13 years, the Terps are tied for second with Duke, but garner the third seed due to the tie-breaker rules.
