 Seth Allen, who made his season debut for the Terrapins after
fracturing his left foot about two weeks before the start of the
season, added 15 points off the bench for Maryland (8-5). Nick Faust
and Evan Smotrycz contributed 13 points apiece and Jake Layman added
12.
James Woodard scored 25 points to reach double figures in a
career-best six straight games for Tulsa (4-9). Rashad Smith and Pat
Swilling Jr. added 12 points and backup forward D’Andre Wright
finished with eight points and 11 rebounds for the Golden Hurricane.
Tulsa led by 15 with nine minutes left in the first half, but the
Terrapins fired back with a 15-2 burst in just under three minutes
and they eventually headed into the half knotted at 35. The game
stayed close until Tulsa coach Danny Manning received back-to-back
technical fouls and was ejected midway through the second half,
leading to six straight free throws by the Terrapins and a 58-47
lead.

The Golden Hurricane didn’t go away quietly, however, cutting
the 11-point deficit back to six with 5:25 remaining. Their last
gasp ended there as Tulsa missed its next seven field-goal
attempts, five from 3-point distance, and Maryland was able to
take its biggest lead of the game at 74-62.
