baltimoresun.com

The Maryland women's basketball team has earned a No. 4 seed in the NCAA Tournament and will host No. 13 Norfolk State on Saturday. This marks their first tournament games at Xfinity Center this year. Despite a challenging finish to the season, Maryland holds a strong roster, with key players like Kaylene Smikle and Shyanne Sellers leading in scoring. The team aims to bounce back after a disappointing Big Ten Tournament. Norfolk State enters the tournament on a 19-game winning streak, making the matchup competitive. The winner will face either No. 5 Alabama or No. 12 Green Bay in the next round.
