Ohio State’s Big Ten Tournament trip lasts only one game as the top-seeded Buckeyes suffer an 82-61 loss to No. 8 seed Maryland in the quarterfinals.
After starting the tournament with a double bye, the top-seeded Buckeyes lost their first game of postseason play on Friday, falling to No. 8 seed Maryland 82-61 in a quarterfinal upset.Maryland took control of the game with a 26-13 second quarter and led for the entire second half to send the No. 1 seed home after just one contest in Minneapolis.
“We didn't make a lot of shots that normally do,” Ohio State guard Jacy Sheldon said after the loss. “Credit to them, they played great, though. Really, we got outrebounded. That was the main factor for us that we're gonna have to be better at moving forward.” Brown-Turner scored six of the first eight points of the second quarter to cut Ohio State’s lead down to one point. A subsequent pair of 3-pointers by Alexander followed by a second-chance bucket from Masonius gave Maryland a 26-19 lead as the Terrapins started the second quarter on a 14-2 run.The Terrapins outscored Ohio State 26-13 for the second quarter as a whole to take an eight-point lead, 38-30, into halftime.
The Buckeyes went on an 8-0 run to cut the deficit to 11 before Sellers capped off a 12-point third quarter with a layup to give Maryland a 65-52 lead entering the final frame.
