Maryland strikes first as Mosley hits a 3 to open the scoring.  Reynolds leaves his feet, but no call, and 'Nova ends up with a 3 from Fisher.  Maryland turns the ball over immediately and Reynolds makes the Terps pay.  6-3 'Nova.  Milbourne has it knocked away, and Nova looks to push up court, but threw the ball away.  Hayes misses a layup, Nova races down the court and everyone converges on Reynolds as he goes for the layup and he kicks it out for an open 3.  9-3 Terps.  Early foul on Vasquez, moving screen.  Vasquez with another turnover as Stokes robs him.  Really sloppy game so far, as Nova can't get a decent shot attempt up.

Vasquez hits 1-of-2 free throws to make it 9-4.  Jordan Williams has looked great on the defensive end so far.  Timeout 15:41 to play 9-4 Villanova.

Pena looked like he traveled, but Williams gave too much contact.  Bad rotation on defense as 3 Terps sucked in on Reynolds on the drive and left King wide open for 3.  Maryland's perimeter defense has looked terrible. Five 3's already made by 'Nova.  Another timeout and it's 17-9.

Mosley and Milbourne step up the pressure defense and Mosley comes away with the steal and gets the layup. 17-11.  Reynolds misses the layup, but put back in.  Two terrible calls back-to-back against the Terps.  Villanova is doing everything they can to make sure Milbourne doesn't gte the ball inside the three point line.  Stokes knocks the ball away and gets it to go off Padgett.  Nice job by Bowie to save the ball to Hayes, who brings it down the court, feeds Padgett but he loses a handle of the ball.  Nova comes back down the court, and Maryland can just not defend them all.  Terps just not making good decision, Bowie goes 1-on-4 and takes the shot, and misses.  22-11 with 10:57 remaining.

Choi hits a shot and a lot of sarcastic cheering from the Terps fans.  Williams cleans up the Vasquez miss, and heads to the free throw line.  Mosley with the steal, and can't control it and luckily hits the shot at the free throw line as Hayes was wide open.  29-18 Nova.  Reynolds with another questionable travel and gets the layup 31-18.  Hayes hits a 3, and Reynolds comes back and responds with another 3.  Milbourne hits the open jumper on the right side.  Milbourne headed to the free throw line after the timeout 34-23 with 6:42 remaining.

Hayes with a nice play on the defensive end, but 'Nova still hits another 3.  Unbelievable, they can't miss.  Mosley hits another shot from the elbow.  Nova keeps airing it out from 3, Maryland gets a lucky call as that looked like it went off a Terp.  37-27.  Williams gets 2 more and gives him 8 for the game so far.  Stokes hits another 3, and this is just getting unbelievable.

Wow, Tucker made a great move and left King on his knees and draws the blocking foul.  He hits the free throw.  42-32 'Nova.  Reynolds finally misses a three.  Williams with a huge block on King, but none of the Terps can get the ball.  Reynolds gets another layup as Milbourne gets their late and avoids the foul.  Hayes misses a rare free throw.  Nova hits another 3, and Mosley responds with a 3 of his own. 49-38.  Finally, the Terps get a call on the defensive side.  Stokes with the offensive foul.  Vasquez puts up his patened off-balance runner in the lane that never goes in.  Mosley with the steal, and feeds Vasquez for a wide open 3, he stands there watching it with his hand in the air, and like he normally does, he missed it.

Reynolds goes 2-for-3 from the line.  Villanova works very hard on defense keeping the Terps at bay.  Off the inbounds, Hayes hits a parking lot 3.  Terps back within 8.  Pena gets the offensive rebound and catches 3 Terps in the air and draws the foul.  Pena hits both free throws.  Mosley hits another shot, and he is 7-for-8 on the game.  King just hits another 3 to get the lead back to double digits.  Milbourne gets an offensive foul going for a rebound and Milbourne will have to sit.  Timeout on the floor, Nova up 61-50.

Fisher had Stokes wide open on the wing for about 8 seconds while he dribbled on the baseline.  Vasquez comes down the court and he immediately pulls from 3, way off.  Maryland forces Nova into a tough 3, Hayes forces up a 3 and that was way off too.  Too hurried.  Vasquez forces a turnover comes down and takes on 2 defenders and misses a layup.  Fisher hits another wide open 3, puts the lead back to 6.  Milbourne wide open 3 is off.  Foul in the lane on Mosley.  Timeout on the floor with 10:56 to go. #3 Villanova leads Maryland 64-58.

Reynolds hits both free throws and puts the lead back to 8.  Tucker throws it away to Reynolds and he makes a TOUGH layup.  Lead back to 10.  Maryland taking way too many tough shots.  Pena doesn't dunk it, and misses the layup after a Bowie foul.  Pena hits the first, but misses the second.  Williams back in and gets the rebound.  Vasquez with another turnover, but luckily King throws it away for Nova.  Stokes hits another 3 and the lead is up to 13.  72-59 with 9:09 to go.

Terps back within 9, and Stokes is way off on the 3.  Milbourne gets called for the offensive foul, that was a terrible call.  Someone just threw a bottle on the court.  Very Classy Terrapins.  Reynolds wide open in the corner, but misses the three.  Fisher grabs the offensive rebound and puts in a layup.  74-63.  Williams gets another basket, he's looking great on the offensive side of the game to match his defensive presence.

Tonight is not a Cliff Tucker night.  Bad turnover made worse by the foul.  Fisher hits both free throws.  Maryland gives up their 21st offensive rebound of the night and Fisher hits another shot.  79-67 Nova is pulling away.  Just as I type that Hayes hits another 3.  Vasquez tries to go one-on-three and gets the offensive foul.  Pena headed to the line after getting another offensive rebound.

Mosley with a nice move to get Williams the ball and the foul.  Williams hits the free throw.  17 points and 11 boards so far from Williams.  Definitely the best game of his young career.  Pena slips and gets called for the travel.   Vasquez loses control of the ball in the lane.  Milbourne blocks the shot, but gets called for the goaltend.  Williams draws the foul on the offensive end, he'll shoot two.  Williams hits both free throws.  cuts the lead to 7.  Mosley had Milbourne wide open for three and instead throws a lazy pass to Vasquez, Vasquez fouls on the other end.  Nova to shoot two free throws, hits the first and the second.  89-80 Nova with 2 minutes to go.  Mosley hits the shot from the left wing.  Gary takes a timeout with 1:36 to go.  Maryland down 89-82.

Vasquez commits a dumb foul, and he fouls out.  On the way off the court he starts yelling at a ref. Reynolds makes 1-of-2 it's an 8 point game. Hayes drives and hits a tough runner.  90-84 with 1:15 to go.  Villanova runs clock and Fisher misses the shot in the lane.  Maryland gets the ball 50 seconds to go.  Williams draws another foul and will head to the line where he's 9-for-11 tonight.  Missed both.  King grabs the defensive board.  Bowie commits the foul, Reynolds will head to the line.
