Bruno Fernando tipped in a
missed shot with 7.8 seconds left to lift No. 24 Maryland to its
first road win over a ranked team in more than 11 years, a 66-65
victory over No. 21 Iowa on Tuesday night in Iowa City.
The Terrapins (20-7, 11-5 Big Ten) called timeout with 14.3 seconds
left to set up the final possession. Anthony Cowan Jr., who had a
game-high 17 points, drove to the basket, but his layup attempt came
off the front of the rim, where Fernando was able to poke it in.
After a timeout, Iowa's Jordan Bohannon took the ball up court and
fired a straight-away 3-pointer that went off the front of the rim.
The Hawkeyes' Isaiah Moss jumped to grab the rebound and shoot in
one motion, but his 8-footer missed as time ran out.
Iowa (20-6, 9-6) had won its previous two games with shots with less
than a second to go. The Hawkeyes rallied from a 12-point deficit
