LINCOLN, Neb. (AP) — Derik Queen had 24 points to lead five Maryland players in double figures and the 25th-ranked Terrapins ended Nebraska’s four-game winning streak with an 83-75 victory Thursday night.
Queen was 9 of 11 from the field and made all six of his free throws, and he grabbed 11 rebounds for his eighth double-double of the season.
Selton Miguel had 17 points, Ja’Kobi Gillespie added 15 and Rodney Rice 14 for the Terrapins (19-6, 9-5 Big Ten). Julian Reese had 13 points to go with 12 rebounds for his 11th double-double.
The Terps shot 58.5%, their second-best performance of the season.
Juwan Gary led the Cornhuskers (16-9, 6-8) with 22 points and Brice Williams had 20 points for his fifth straight game with at least that many.
The Terps swept the season series, and Queen was more of a factor than in the 69-66 win at home on Jan. 19. He scored a season-low three points in that game.
