[QUOTE="WVBlue, post: 129250209, member: 1481689"] March 22, 2015 by John Antonik COLUMBUS, Ohio - West Virginia's border rivalry with Maryland resumes later this evening when the two schools will meet in the third round of the NCAA Tournament here in Columbus, Ohio. This time, a lot more than just regional bragging rights are on the line. The winner of tonight's game advances to the Sweet 16 to play No. 1 seed Kentucky Thursday night in Cleveland, Ohio. Maryland this year has come of age under veteran coach Mark Turgeon, now in his fourth season in College Park. Turgeon's first three years at Maryland saw the Terps make just one postseason appearance in the NIT with a pair of sub-.500 records in the ACC. But this year, Maryland has put everything together now playing in the Big Ten with 28 victories, including Friday's win over Valparaiso, a 14-4 regular-season record in its new league and a return to the Big Dance following a four-year hiatus. "We have more length around the rim," said Turgeon. "We have some pretty good depth and we have some pretty good defenders."
