#4/4 Maryland 71, Boston College 39
February 4, 2007
Comcast Center

• The Terrapins snapped a two-game losing streak with the victory. It improves their record to 22-3 (6-3).
• Maryland won thanks in large part to their second-half defense. The Eagles shot just .143 from the floor on the half and was held without a field goal for more than eight minutes. After a field goal at the 13:08 mark by Mickel Picco, they did not hit another shot from the floor until Kaydia Kentish knocked one down at the 4:54 mark, a span of 8:14.
• The 39 points given up by Maryland is the fewest the Terps have given up in an ACC game since January 28, 1994, when they defeated Florida State 81-39.
• Boston College's 39 points marks a season low for the Eagles.
• Every Terp got on the floor during the game, and every one of them scored. It is the first time that has happened since a 92-57 victory over UNC Greensboro on December 29.
• Christie Marrone hit her first shot of the night, her first points in ACC play since joining the Terrapins.
• Shay Doron and Laura Harper both reached the 500 career rebound plateau during the game. Doron pulled down 4 boards and now sits at 503 overall. Harper grabbed 6 rebounds to finish with exactly 500 in her career.
• The Terps were perfect from the free throw line, shooting 7-for-7. Kristi Toliver was 2-for-2, improving her season percentage to .884 (46-52). She currently has the second best percentage for a season in the program's history. Last year, she set the record by shooting .891 (57-64).
• Toliver also moved up the single-season record list for three-point field goals. Her 2-for-3 game gives her 53 treys on the season, moving her into sixth place overall and just 16 behind the record holder, Tiffany Brown, who hit 69 during the 1999-2000 season.
• For the 24th time in the Terps' 25 games, at least three Terps hit double figures. Marissa Coleman and Harper each had 11 to join Doron's 15.
• For just the second time this season, Crystal Langhorne failed to register at least 10 points. She finished with 7 points and 6 rebounds.
