Lexie Brown scored 19 points, Shatori Walker-Kimbrough added 17 and No. 5 Maryland remained unbeaten in the Big Ten with its 16th consecutive victory, 80-69 over No. 18 Rutgers on Tuesday night at XFINITY Center.
Maryland (22-2, 13-0) responded to multiple Rutgers offensive threats to cut into the lead before Brown connected from beyond the arc to spark an 11-2 run that made it 63-50 with nine minutes left.
The victory moved the Terrapins one step closer to becoming the first team since Purdue in 1998-99 to finish with an unblemished record in Big Ten play. Maryland’s last loss was against Notre Dame on Dec. 3.
