David Coit takes over late as Maryland beats Minnesota

David Coit scored seven of his 29 points in the final 26 seconds as Maryland snapped a four-game losing streak, outlasting Minnesota 67-62 Sunday in Big Ten play at Minneapolis.

Andre Mills added 12 points and Darius Adams contributed 11 points as Maryland improved to 18-3 all-time against Minnesota.

Solomon Washington put up nine points and 10 rebounds for the Terrapins (9-14, 2-10 Big Ten), who had lost their previous four games by an average margin of 28 points.

After Cade Tyson hit two free throws with 53 seconds left to put Minnesota up 62-60, Coit scored the game's final seven points.

The key play came with 26 seconds left when Coit drained a side-step 3-pointer to put the Terrapins up 63-62. Coit then added four free throws in the final 11 seconds.

"Coach got on me after the last game. He called me out. I was being selfish with my body language," Coit said. "I had to respond."

Coit made 9 of 13 shots from the floor, 4 of 7 from distance and hit all seven of his free throw attempts.

Isaac Asuma scored all 18 of his points from behind the arc to lead Minnesota (11-13, 4-9), which was coming off an upset of No. 10 Michigan State on Wednesday. The loss was the Golden Gophers' eighth in their last nine games.

Tyson finished with 12 points and Langston Reynolds contributed 11 points, six rebounds and five assists for the Golden Gophers.

Midway through the first half, Mills made a 3-pointer which gave Maryland a 17-14 lead, before Asuma responded with consecutive triples to give Minnesota a lead that it held the rest of the period.

Two 3-pointers by Bobby Durkin pushed the Golden Gophers' edge to 33-26. Coit answered with a 3-pointer and a driving three-point play to cut the deficit to 33-32 at the break.

Midway through the second half, two driving layups by Reynolds gave Minnesota the biggest lead of the second half, 53-47.

But Coit put the Terrapins on his back scoring 15 of his points in the final 8:41.
