The No. 16 Maryland Terrapins are preparing to take on the Penn State Nittany Lions in a pivotal Big Ten matchup. The game is set for March 1, 2023, at 6:30 PM EST at the Bryce Jordan Center in University Park, Pennsylvania. After a recent defeat against the Indiana Hoosiers, Maryland coach Kevin Willard emphasized the importance of bouncing back to maintain their favorable positioning for the NCAA tournament. The Terrapins (19-8, 10-6 Big Ten) look to regain momentum against a Penn State team that has shown resilience under first-year coach Mike Rhoades. The Nittany Lions (15-12, 6-10 Big Ten) will also be aiming to improve their standings. In their last outing, they managed a dramatic victory against the Minnesota Golden Gophers, highlighting their potential to upset higher-ranked teams. One of the key players to watch for the game will be Ace Baldwin, who leads the Nittany Lions with his playmaking ability. In preparation for the game, Willard noted, ‘We need to tighten up our defense and make sure we execute our offensive plays effectively.’ The game will be broadcasted live on the Big Ten Network, providing an opportunity for fans to witness what could be a thrilling contest. Both teams understand the stakes, with Maryland looking to solidify their NCAA tournament bid and Penn State striving to improve their postseason outlook.
