The Terrapins came into the tournament a team on a mission. They exit a few wins short of completing that mission.
The No. 4-seeded Terps came to Spokane looking to exorcise the demons of a disappointing Sweet 16 loss in 2021. They will leave with the same in 2022. The top-seeded Stanford Cardinal never trailed Friday night in a 72-66 win. Stanford led by as much as 26 before a late Maryland run salvaged a measure of respectability.
Maryland’s tumultuous season ends at 23-9, a campaign full of injuries, illnesses and the emotional effects of Coach Brenda Frese losing her father to prostate cancer midway through the season. This season had the motto to “complete the mission” after the feeling of unfinished business from last season’s disappointment.
“We had a great scouting report,” said Haley Jones, the reigning NCAA tournament most outstanding player. “Part of why we’re so good every year is because of the attention to detail we have with our scout. We were communicating, we were closing in on their shooters, we weren’t giving them the first option. They usually get quick shots on offense, and we made them look for second and third shots and we were getting on the boards, not giving them a lot of second-chance opportunities.
