Alyssa Thomas led with 18 points and Tianna Hawkins added her eighth double-double of the year, but No. 5 Maryland fell to No. 11 Miami, 75-63, Thursday night in Coral Gables, Fla. The Terrapins (16-1, 3-1 ACC) led 56-54 with just over six minutes to play, but the hot-shooting Hurricanes (14-3, 3-1 ACC) hit two quick threes within a minute to take the lead for good.
Thomas was 9-for-18 from the field with five boards, while Hawkins finished with 12 points and 11 rebounds. Anjale Barrett added 10 points.
After trailing by 12 at 22-10, with 11:31 left in the first half, a layup by Hawkins at 8:11 jumpstarted a 17-3 Terps run to close the first half. Maryland extended its run to go up 35-28 and force a Miami timeout with 18:47 to play in the second.
