Michigan suffered its second consecutive loss for the primary time of the season on Thursday evening because it fell to Maryland in College Park. The Wolverines have been examined with what was considered a straightforward “get proper” recreation, and it was precisely that.

The scoring was extra evenly distributed within the second quarter, and though Michigan scored solely 15 second-quarter factors, Minnesota struggled on the offensive finish of the ground and the Wolverines loved a 34-23 lead going into halftime.
Michigan got here out of the locker room on hearth within the third quarter. Phelia, Brown and Greta Kampschroeder all completed with at the least 5 factors, and Michigan’s lead grew to 31 factors heading into the fourth quarter.
The Wolverines took their foot off the fuel within the fourth quarter, as the sport’s final result had already been decided. The Golden Gophers have been unable to make up any floor, and Michigan walked out of the barn with a 36-point victory.
Late within the fourth quarter, junior ahead Whiney Sollom checked into the sport, and he or she scored her first factors of the season on a layup with 1:45 to play.
With the win, Michigan improves to 17-5 general and 7-4 within the Big Ten. Kim Barnes Arico’s squad will head again to Ann Arbor because it prepares for the Big Ten’s greatest shock of the season, the Illinois Fighting Illini.
Under first-year head coach Shauna Green, Illinois has impressed many and has made some noise close to the highest of the Big Ten standings. The Fighting Illini are at present 16-5 general and 6-4 within the Big Ten.
The recreation is ready to tip off at 6:30 p.m. from Crisler on Thursday, Feb. 2.
