Maryland Rallies Past Marquette as Pharrel Payne Is Stretchered Off

Maryland’s guard play and bench depth carried the offense after its leading scorer exited, offering a blueprint as the team awaits an update on his status.

Overview

  • The Terrapins erased a second‑half deficit to win 89-82 at Fiserv Forum in Buzz Williams’ first game back in Milwaukee since coaching Marquette.
  • Senior forward Pharrel Payne suffered a painful lower‑body injury on a dunk and was taken off on a stretcher, with no timetable disclosed.
  • Graduate guard David Coit led Maryland with 19 points and five assists as Isaiah Watts (18), Darius Adams (16) and Andre Mills (11) fueled the comeback.
  • Marquette dominated the glass 44-35, including a 20-4 edge in offensive rebounds that produced a 25-6 second‑chance scoring advantage.
  • Chase Ross scored a career‑high 31 points for the Golden Eagles as Maryland’s rebounding vulnerability remained a concern despite the win.
