Game #12: Central Connecticut State

The Terps return to action after a 7 day lay off to play the Blue Devils, nope not Duke, but Central Connecticut State (we have those other Blue Devils in 10 days). CCSU is 2-6 on the year and losers of 5 straight. Ironically, the only two games they have won all year were in Alaska at the Great Alaska Shootout. They did beat Arizona 69-65 in OT and that is the only common opponent.

They are basically a one-player team as Gabriella Guegbelet is averaging a double-double with 17.9 ppg and 11.8 rpg. She is also the team's tallest player at 6'. We should be able to control the boards and block a ton of shots. Look for Jade to put up another double-double and our post players to have their way with the smaller line up.

Some questions heading into the game:
1. Will Toliver play? It's getting close to ACC season and we don't need to be working out the kinks against B.C. on the road on Jan. 5.
2. Will we hold another opponent under 40 points? It would be the first time since the inaugural season that we have done this three straight times.
