The Terrapins are 6-0 vs. the Badgers. Most recently, Maryland beat Wisconsin, 71-44 in Madison on Jan. 7 last year. Maryland is 2-0 against Wisconsin at home in the XFINITY Center.
The Terps used a 19-3 second quarter run to dominate Indiana, 76-56, Sunday in Bloomington. Junior Kaila Charles rattled off 12 straight points in the first half and scored a season-high 25 with 11 boards to lead Maryland. Junior Stephanie Jones scored 20 points for the second straight game, and freshman Taylor Mikesell added 13 points.
Mikesell earned her first Big Ten Freshman of the Week honor Monday after she averaged 13.5 points and 6.0 rebounds in the Terps' two wins last week. Charles was named to the Big Ten Player of the Week honor roll for the fifth time in her career.
Maryland is in the top 10 nationally in rebounding margin (+10.3) and defensive rebounds (30.0). Sophomore Channise Lewis leads the Big Ten in assist/turnover ratio (2.6) and is No. 3 in assists (5.0).
Mikesell leads the league in threes made with 61 and needs 11 more made threes to top Maryland's freshman record. Freshman Shakira Austin is second in the Big Ten and fifth in the country in total blocks (55). Jones is third in the Big Ten and 12th in the country in field goal percentage (.613). Charles is No. 5 in the Big Ten in scoring (16.1).
