It was a real NCAA Tournament thriller. MD started out so badly, I stopped watching for a while. But just before the halftime, I returned and they were only a few points behind. The second half went back and forth, a few points up a few points down. It came down to single points changes right at the end.
I should mention that Maryland has had wretchedly bad luck with close games this season. They lost 7 games, and 6 were in the last 10 seconds. Normally, a team would win about half of super-close games. Not Maryland. It was like the Grim Reaper was stalking them.
So their opponent was 2 points behind and sank a 3-point shot with 3.5 seconds left to play. So Maryland in-bounded to ball and the player who got it had to shoot immediately. He sank the shoot beautifully. Maryland won!
Sometimes there is justice and mercy in sports. 😂
I feel sorry for the other team, but Maryland suffered that kind of loss too many times this season. It was time for some luck!
