Terps Enter Big Ten Tournament as No. 2 Seed

The Maryland Terrapins men's basketball team is gearing up for the Big Ten tournament, entering as the #2 seed with a strong season record of 24-7. Head coach Kevin Willard emphasized the importance of focusing on winning the conference championship to enhance their NCAA tournament seeding. The team, which has won seven of its last eight games, believes in its potential for a deep postseason run, with players expressing the value of their time together during this critical phase. The Terps will play their first game on Friday against either Iowa or Illinois, teams they have previously defeated this season. Concerns about performance following extended breaks linger, as the team has struggled after long gaps in play. However, they are looking to harness their momentum and capitalize on their recent successes as they aim for a title in Indianapolis.
