Julian Reese's 14th double-double leads No. 13 Maryland to 74-61 Senior Day win over Northwestern
In his final time taking the Xfinity Center court, Julian Reese registered his Big Ten-leading 14th double-double to keep Maryland afloat during a sluggish first half and eventually help it pull away
Maryland honored a group of five seniors, led by Reese, who scored 19 points, pulled down 11 rebounds, and was lauded all afternoon from the second sold-out crowd of the season.
“I was just happy that that he was able to get the ovation that he got, and I was really happy that he played the way he played,” Maryland coach Kevin Willard said, “because if he didn’t play as physical as he played, we would have struggled to win this game.”
