What Happened the Last Time These Two Played?
Jan. 14, 2024: Maryland 76, No. 10 Illinois 67
CHAMPAIGN, Ill. — That was ugly.
Although it came into Sunday afternoon against the Maryland Terrapins as near-double-digit favorites, Illinois’ struggles were more apparent than ever.
Both teams traded punches in the first half, but Maryland took a charge in the second half and held an eight-point lead with under six minutes to go.
But Brad Underwood’s team fought back to a five-point deficit with a minute remaining. With the crowd on its feet, Maryland’s star guard Jahmir Young charged down the court on the fast break.
Looking up, he found a wide-open Jordan Geromino near the basket. The forward slammed it home, giving the Terrapins the exclamation point in a stunning upset win.
Illinois fell apart offensively in the second half, and the Terrapin duo of Young and Julian Reese were too much for the Illini to overcome in a 76-67 loss.

Bakery sues roofing contractor after fire in McHenry, Illinois
A bakery is suing a roofing company after a fire destroyed two businesses in McHenry, Illinois, back in January.
According to the Northwest Herald, the Riverside Bake Shop, which has been a community staple for more than 50 years, claims APR Roofing was negligent while performing work on the roof.
While the fire that gutted the bakery at 1309 Riverside Dr. in McHenry on Sunday, Jan. 18, was found to be accidental, the bakery alleges the roofers heated up the wood board under the roof, and this led to the fire, the Northwest Herald reported.
The bakery sustained more than $1 million in damage.
Court documents confirm the lawsuit, and show the bakery is asking for a jury trial and damages in excess of $50,000.
Pet food and supply store Reeses Barkery and Pawtique was located in the same building and was also gutted in the fire. The pet food store has since reopened on Pearl Street.
In a statement on the store’s Facebook page, the owners of Reeses Barkery and Pawtique said the reopening came thanks to the support they received frm the community.
“Three months ago, everything changed. There are moments you never forget. Walking through the damage. Not knowing what came next. Wondering how you even begin again,” the business said in part. “But then something incredible happened. Our community showed up. You checked on us. You supported us. You walked back through our doors. Because of you, we are still here. Still standing. Still spoiling pets.”
The George Thompson Insurance Agency and McHenry Dental Associates were also damaged in the fire, according to the McHenry Chamber of Commerce.
