Photo courtesy of UNM Athletics Lobos Win in San Jose, Tighten Grip on Mountain West Title Race Few teams started the season with as many questions as the University of New Mexico men’s basketball team. A new coaching staff and a completely retooled roster suggested a long adjustment period, but instead, the Lobos have delivered […]
SYRACUSE, N.Y. — The Syracuse Orange basketball team was backcourt-led in the 14 point victory over Notre Dame on Saturday. Nate Kingz poured in a career-high 28 points while JJ Starling finished with 21 points. It was the second time Kingz has flirted with 30 points in the last two weeks. His 11-17 shooting night […]
Maryland men’s basketball has pulled off crazy upsets over highly-ranked Purdue squads in the past. This year’s Boilermakers, ranked No. 12, come to Xfinity Center losers of three straight, while the Terps are simply looking to avoid humiliation like that they faced a week ago against Michigan State. Tip-off is set for 1 p.m. This […]
The Wisconsin Badgers, minus starting guard Andrew Rohde, completed their three-game home stretch with a 92-82 win over the Ohio State Buckeyes. It was a stellar outing for the Badgers’ offense, as Wisconsin finished the game shooting 52 percent from the field and held a commanding 42-30 margin in points in the paint. In addition, […]
I started on my usual Maryland preview and concluded that it doesn’t matter. In the grand scheme of things, none of this matters, but nothing matters less than who plays for Maryland basketball in 2026 (no offense intended). In fact, maybe it’s time for Purdue to stop spending so much focus on the big-brained scouting […]
Your Georgetown Hoyas (12-10, 4-7 BIG EAST) traveled to Hinkle Fieldhouse this snowy weekend and took down the Butler Bulldogs by a score of 77-64.

The Oregon ladies finished their road trip back east with an upset of the #16 Maryland Terrapins, 68-61. This was a physical, hard-fought game, especially in the closing period. The Ducks rose to the task and rode an outstanding performance from Ehis Etute, who posted a career high in points and her fifth double-double of […]
It was the sort of easy, sleepy type of victory that is actually pretty rare when the Tar Heels head down to Atlanta and play against Georgia Tech. Carolina won by 16 in a game that stayed in that point range from the end of the first half, and scored 91 with two different Tar […]
Watching a team struggle is a strange experience. The season begins with hope and expectation, then slowly becomes a ceaseless nightmare. There’s a certain disbelief that morphs into listlessness as everything seems to go against a losing squad. But out of despair rises hope. The team asks, “Why not us? What do we have to […]
On Feb. 19, 2022, against Oklahoma, the Iowa State Cyclones honored the first Black varsity player in school history in John Crawford, a basketball letter winner from 1956 to 1958. The team wore shooting t-shirts that replicated Crawford’s No. 40 jersey. Jenn Walker-Crawford, John’s granddaughter, spoke with the 2021-22 Cyclone squad following their 75-54 victory […]

Moten passed away last September. He was 53. […]
North Carolina won their third straight and second straight on the road to get their fifth win in conference play this season. The Tar Heels took an early lead over the Yellow Jackets and though they didn’t blow past them, they kept that lead steady for most of the game as they led by 15 […]

Every year, dynamic freshmen enter the Big Ten women’s basketball conference. Now, with an 18-team conference, that is even more true than before. Last season, the quality of new guards in the conference was hard to match across the power conferences. Ohio State women’s basketball benefited from the play of Big Ten Freshman of the […]

The first day of February comes with seven double-ranked women’s college basketball games. The headliner, of course, is the latest edition of the UConn-Tennessee rivalry. Although, as Zack Ward wrote, the Lady Vols’ most recent loss doesn’t inspire much confidence in their ability to hand the Huskies a loss in back-to-back seasons, especially in Hartford. […]

It did not happen as expected. Vinyl, however, did snap their three-game skid with an upset over Laces, 70-63. Instead of Rhyne Howard raining 3s, it was a career-best game from Rae Burrell that returned Vinyl to the win column. Sweet Baby Rae converted her customary energy into efficient, impactful offense, scoring 22 points, including […]
COLLEGE PARK, Md. — It started with a coast-to-coast Oluchi Okananwa layup that put the No. 16 Maryland Terrapins up 2-0. She ended the first possession of the game with a defensive rebound 22 seconds in, and four seconds later she was at the other end, putting the ball in the basket. Okananwa, who averages […]
Last night was a good night to be a Kentucky Basketball fan. The Wildcats came out strong vs. the Arkansas Razorbacks, leading 14-5 at the first media timeout and taking a 7-point lead into halftime. Things looked rocky early in the second half when Kentucky was issued 3 technical fouls in less than a minute, […]
No. 16 Maryland women’s basketball headed into the fourth quarter against Oregon with a five point lead. It seemed like the Terps had weathered the storm of their offensive struggles and could end their three-game losing skid. Instead, their offense went ice cold, and they lost the fourth quarter by 13 points en route to […]
