Maryland Women's Basketball | Press Conference | Bethune Cookman

Описание: The No. 9 Terps used a monstrous first quarter to propel themselves to a 95-49 win over Bethune-Cookman (1-4) on Thursday night at the XFINITY Center.

Oluchi Okananwa continued her hot start to the season with 13 points, four rebounds and four steals. Both she and Kaylene Smikle (11 points) have tallied double-digit scoring in every game they've played in this season.

Maryland forced eight BCU turnovers before the Wildcats got on the board as the Terps opened the game on a 20-0 run and never looked back to improve to 6-0 for a second straight season and the 10th time in the Brenda Frese era.

Yarden Garzon picked up 10 points in the first half as Maryland finished the second quarter on an 18-2 run and took a 46-16 lead into the break. Garzon finished with 12 points and five assists in her 67th-career double-figure performance. Breanna Williams pitched in a career-high 12 points as she sank six free throws.

Maryland's offense is off to a historic start. The Terps have scored at least 80 points in each of their first six games for the first time this century. Maryland scored 80+ points 16 times last season and already has half a dozen such games in 2025.

The Terps grabbed 15 total steals as Maryland utilized 36 points off turnovers in the win. Kyndal Walker made her first-career start and logged a career-high 13 points on Thursday as her Terps hosted their Mental Health Awareness Night.
