Arizona rallied to take a one-point lead at halftime, but Diamond Miller and Maryland overwhelmed the Wildcats in the second half, pulling away for a 77-64 win in the NCAA Tournament that ends the Cats' season.
PJ Brown COLLEGE PARK, Md. — Arizona clawed its way back into the game with a second-quarter run, but Diamond Miller and Maryland were too much as the Terrapins upended the Wildcats 77-64 in a second-round matchup in the NCAA Tournament on Sunday at XFINITY Center.
This was the second consecutive year that the Wildcats couldn’t win their second-round game. Last year, they lost to North Carolina at McKale Center. The Wildcats outscored the Terrapins 22-16 in the fourth quarter, but the gap was too much to overcome. Arizona spotted Maryland a 12-point lead in the first quarter, then, with some quick adjustments, started chipping away. The defense turned it on, holding the Terrapins scoreless for four minutes in the second quarter, allowing the Wildcats to go a 10-0 run.
