COLLEGE PARK, Md. (AP) Ja’Kobi Gillespie scored 23 points in his first Big Ten game, Derik Queen had 17 points and 11 rebounds for his fourth double-double, and Maryland Terrapins built a 40-point lead en route to an 83-59 victory over Ohio State Buckeyes on Wednesday night.
Maryland's 33-point halftime lead equaled the largest for any Big Ten team in a regular-season conference game since the 1996-97 season. Maryland's previous best was a 28-point margin against Rutgers on Jan. 6, 2016.
Maryland went ahead by double figures for good during an 11-0 run that ended in a 25-8 lead. The Terrapins led by 50-17 at halftime after holding Ohio State without a field goal in the final four minutes.
Selton Miguel made Maryland’s seventh 3-pointer with 15 minutes left in the second half for a 63-23 lead. Ohio State had just nine made field goals at that point, with its first 3-pointer in 11 tries falling with 13:39 left.
Ohio State entered with 38 made 3-pointers in its last three contests for the best three-game stretch since early in the 2009 season.
Miguel and Julian Reese each added 10 points for Maryland (8-1, 1-0).
Devin Royal scored 18 points and John Mobley Jr. had 15 for Ohio State (5-3, 0-1).
Maryland plays at No. 8 Purdue on Sunday. Ohio State returns home to play Rutgers on Saturday.
