Alexander tops 1,000 points, No. 9 Terps beat Rutgers 80-56

Associated Press  

— After Maryland used its pressing defense to open a big lead, the main question was whether Brinae Alexander would reach the 1,000-point mark for her career. Alexander surpassed that milestone in the second half, and she finished with a team-high 20 points to help the ninth-ranked Terrapins rout Rutgers 80-56 on Sunday. “We want to throw it to the red jerseys and not the white jerseys.” Meyers scored 10 points during an early 13-0 run that gave Maryland a 15-5 lead. “So, love seeing that it’s happened here at Maryland for all of them — and very well deserving.” BIG PICTURE Rutgers: Turnovers continue to plague the Scarlet Knights, who entered averaging 21.2 per game. “Just got to start off the game with a little better execution.” Maryland: The Terps’ ability to push the pace was exactly what was needed against a Rutgers team that doesn’t take good care of the ball, and Miller and Meyers showed the many ways they can contribute at both ends of the court.
