Washington 75-69 Maryland (January 2, 2025) Match Summary

SEATTLE — — Great Osobor scored 20 points and grabbed 14 rebounds Thursday night, freshman Vazoumana “Zoom” Diallo scored a season-high 18 as Washington beat Maryland 75-69 for the Huskies’ first Big Ten Conference victory.

DJ Davis made 6 of 6 from the free throw line — including a pair with about 10 seconds left that made it 74-69 — and added 15 points for Washington (10-4, 1-2).

First-year Huskies coach Danny Sprinkle picked up his first signature win with the program, knocking off a Maryland team that finished just outside the latest AP Top 25. The Terrapins had 133 points, the most among unranked teams and just six shy of the No. 25. Baylor.

Diallo drove to the left block, spun back into the lane and dropped a pass to Osobor for an and-1 layup that gave the Huskies a 70-65 lead with 1:04 to play in the first-ever meeting between the two programs.

Julian Reese led Maryland (11-3, 1-2) with 22 points. Ja’Kobi Gillespie, a 6-foot-1 transfer from Belmont, and consensus five-star freshman Derik Queen combined to score five points on 1-of-13 shooting with no rebounds, eight fouls and five turnovers.

Washington controlled the pace and played at a deliberate pace that limited the Terrapins’ high-octane offense. Maryland, which averaged 87.2 points per game (No. 12 nationally), was held under 74 points for the first time this season.

Maryland travels to face Oregon No. 9 on Sunday. Washington hosts 22nd-ranked Illinois on Sunday.
