MINNEAPOLIS (AP) --- David "Diggy" Coit scored 20 of his 28 in the final
13-plus minutes, including the game's final seven points, to help Maryland beat
Minnesota 67-62 on Sunday.
Coit made 9 of 13 from the field, 4 of 7 from 3-point range, and hit 7 of 7
from the free-throw line. The 5-foot-11 senior outscored the Golden Gophers
13-9 after Langston Reynolds made back-to-back layups to give them a 53-47 lead
with 9:43 left in the game.
Cade Tyson hit two free throws to give Minnesota a two-point lead with 53
seconds left, but Coit answered 27 seconds later with a 3-pointer and then made
four free throws in the final 11 seconds to cap the scoring.
Andre Mills scored 12 points for Maryland (9-14, 2-10 Big Ten) and Darius Adams
11. Solomon Washington had 10 rebounds, nine points and three steals.
Isaac Asuma hit a career-high six 3-pointers and finished with 18 points for
the Golden Gophers. Tyson scored 12 points and Reynolds added 11. Minnesota
(11-13, 4-9), which beat No. 10 Michigan State 76-73 on Wednesday to snap a
seven-game skid, has lost eight of nine.
Asuma made 4 of 5 from 3-point range and scored 12 first-half points to help
the Golden Gophers take a one-point lead into the break. Bobby Durkin hit a
3-pointer that gave them a seven-point lead --- tied for the biggest lead to
that point by either team --- with 1:34 left in the first half but Coit
answered with a 3 and then converted a three-point play that trimmed Maryland's
deficit to 33-32.
