GREENVILLE, S.C. — — Amid Maryland’s on-court celebration of reaching the Elite Eight for the primary time in eight years, Terrapins coach Brenda Frese took a couple of moments to smile and mirror on how far her crew has come previously yr.
The perfect half for Frese is the journey’s not executed but.
Diamond Miller and Shyanne Sellers had 18 factors apiece because the Terps (28-6) took management within the third quarter to beat depleted No. 3 seed Notre Dame 76-59 on Saturday and transfer inside a victory of the Closing 4 of the ladies’s NCAA Match.
The Terps will play defending champion South Carolina, the undefeated, high general seed, on Monday evening for a visit to Dallas. The Gamecocks gained their forty first straight sport, 59-43 over fourth-seeded UCLA, in Saturday’s second sport on the Greenville 1 Regional.
Chasing a championship did not seem possible for Maryland on the finish of final season. Frese had misplaced 85% of her offense a yr in the past as Maryland went via a roster transition with 9 new faces. The group jelled rapidly and is among the many final groups nonetheless standing in March Insanity.
“What I felt like a yr in the past and to the place we’re at present,” recalled Frese, who gained a nationwide title 2006 and final reached the Elite Eight in 2015. “Yeah, this one goes to be one I will keep in mind for a really very long time.”
Miller, the transcendent 6-foot-3 All-American, was requested why she did not be a part of the exodus from Maryland after her junior season a yr in the past.
She reasoned that, keep or go, she’d play with new, unfamiliar gamers. “Whenever you have a look at it like that, I used to be like, ‘I’m simply going to remain and belief the method.’ And I am so pleased I did,” Miller mentioned.
Miller and Sellers mixed for 30 of their 36 factors within the last two quarters.
The third-seeded Combating Irish (27-6) performed as soon as once more with out injured main scorer Olivia Miles after her knee damage on the Atlantic Coast Convention Match earlier this month.
Miles and guard Dara Mabrey, each starters, have been injured spectators for Notre Dame, which hung tight with Maryland for 25 minutes earlier than Miller and Sellers took over.
Miller, the first-team All-American, shook off a poor first half as Maryland gained management. Tied at 44-all, Lavender Briggs had a 3-pointer and Miller adopted with a three-point play because the Terps closed the third quarter on a 13-1 run.
Notre Dame, which fought off Mississippi State on its residence flooring to advance final week, couldn’t reply.
Maryland used its defensive strain to interrupt out early, forcing eight turnovers by the Combating Irish to construct a 19-14 lead. However Notre Dame confirmed its resiliency as soon as extra with a 13-0 burst to maneuver in entrance 27-19.
Miller and Brinae Alexander every hit 3-pointers within the last 80 seconds of the half to chop the result in 32-31.
Issues modified within the second half because the Terps and their main scorers turned up the fireplace.
“I simply felt like they have been assured and aggressive they usually obtained actually attractiveness, they usually nailed each shot that they took,” Notre Dame coach Niele Ivey mentioned.
A part of Notre Dame’s success was holding Miller in test the primary 20 minutes. She was simply 1-of-4 capturing with two rebounds and three of her crew’s eight turnovers. When Miller obtained going, Maryland was transferring on to the place it hadn’t been since 2015.
Sonia Citron led the Combating Irish with 14 factors, their solely double-figure scorer.
BIG PICTURE
Notre Dame: The Combating Irish weren’t anticipated to get this far after Miles’ knee damage on the ACC Match. Ivey thought her crew’s run to the Candy 16 will give it confidence to get again to work and put up one other stellar season.
Maryland: Frese has been enthralled by this crew after integrating so many new faces. Maryland will search for maybe its most sudden Closing 4 go to when it meets South Carolina on Monday evening.
STAT WATCH
Maryland was simply the third crew within the ladies’s NCAA Match this century to permit two 3-pointers or fewer, report 15 or extra steals and win by 15 or extra factors, according to OptaSTATS. Duke achieved the opposite two, first in 2002 in opposition to Texas, then in 2012 in opposition to St. John’s. Notre Dame made two 3s and completed with a season-high 25 turnovers.
MILES WATCH
Ivey mentioned Miles can have surgical procedure subsequent week, and the coach is hopeful she will participate when the Combating Irish return for exercises this summer season.

Maryland issues a new suicide prevention action plan for schools, families – WTOP News
![Maryland issues a new suicide prevention action plan for schools, families – WTOP News Maryland issues a new suicide prevention action plan for schools, families – WTOP News](https://wtop.com/wp-content/uploads/2023/03/SAD_GIRL.GettyImages-1033774340-e1705449585875.jpg)
Suicide is the third leading cause of death for young people between the ages of 10 and 24 in Maryland. That’s according to a new suicide prevention action plan produced through the state’s Department of Health.
Suicide is the third leading cause of death for young people between the ages of 10 and 24 in Maryland. That’s according to a new suicide prevention action plan produced through the state’s Department of Health.
Scott Poland, the director of the Office of Suicide and Violence Prevention at Nova Southeastern University College of Psychology, talked to WTOP about the action plan he authored with his wife, Donna, who is a career educator.
The “Maryland Action Plan to Prevent Suicide in K-12 Schools” serves as a reference guide to school administrators and the community, and was developed in cooperation with the state health department’s Office of Suicide Prevention.
Poland said one thing that surprises people is that children as young as 8 years old may consider taking their own lives.
“I hear from school personnel all around the country (asking if they) have to take it seriously (if a fourth or fifth grader is talking about suicide). And the answer is absolutely yes,” Poland said.
Among the data points in the action plan is a survey of students in the “Youth Risk Behavior Surveillance Survey of 2021/2022.” According to that survey, 21% of high school students “seriously considered suicide” in the past year, and 27% of middle schoolers considered suicide at some point in their lives.
Poland said it’s important to talk about suicide with young people, and that the idea that talking about it might encourage a young person to consider suicide is a “myth.”
“When we actually bring it up, it gives someone a chance to unburden themselves, to realize that they’re not alone, that there are alternatives and that there is help available,” Poland said.
But he said young people are most susceptible to imitating suicidal behavior: “It is important that we not glorify the suicide victim.”
Instead, Poland said, the emphasis after a suicide should be on healing those affected and helping them find appropriate ways to deal with their emotions and mental health.
The plan released this week includes providing intervention action plans for a young person who may be considering suicide.
“Part of that, of course, is removing lethal means and developing a written safety plan with them,” he said.
Poland said that can include helping people understand “the importance of calling 988, doing things that can calm themselves down,” and reaching out to the nearest trusted adult.
People can reach the national resource for crisis response services and suicide prevention by dialing 988.
Poland said social media is “wreaking havoc” on children’s emotional well-being, often making them feel “not smart enough, not rich enough, not good enough.” Poland said he’s currently working with the state of South Dakota on developing tools to help “young people be a little more mindful and make better decisions about their screen time.”
Poland said parents can help — when it comes to the hours and hours that many people spend online — by modeling healthy amounts of screen time themselves. And he said adults need to think about how they introduce technology to their kids.
“We’re in too (much of) a hurry to give kids smartphones and 24-hour internet access,” Poland said.
“I really have to compliment Maryland,” Poland said, on coming up with the new plan.
Poland said Maryland does not have an especially high rate of suicide, but “I think we all recognize that losing one young person to suicide is one too many.”

Getting to know Michigan State football’s Week 2 opponent: Maryland
![Getting to know Michigan State football’s Week 2 opponent: Maryland Getting to know Michigan State football’s Week 2 opponent: Maryland](https://images2.minutemediacdn.com/image/upload/c_crop,w_4000,h_2250,x_0,y_0/c_fill,w_1440,ar_16:9,f_auto,q_auto,g_auto/images/GettyImages/mmsport/137/01j714ppf1xrvce2agzn.jpg)
Game two is coming up for Michigan State football as the Spartans hit the road for an early season Big Ten matchup against Maryland. The Terps have had MSU’s number in recent years, but the Spartans’ new-look team is ready to change that narrative this weekend.
Jonathan Smith and his staff have a lot to work on this week after a lackluster 16-10 win over Florida Atlantic, but we’ve become more than used to slow starts for MSU in their first game so it’s not time to panic just yet.
While the team wraps up their preparations for Maryland, let’s take a quick look at the Terps and see what we can learn about them before the big game on Saturday.
Maryland is off and running in their 2024 campaign and had an absolutely dominant week one performance. The Terps took on UConn at home and came away with an impressive 50-7 win. Sure UConn is an awful football program, but we saw how poorly Michigan State just did against a similar opponent.
Not only was the final score lopsided, but ever major statistical category was as well. Maryland doubled UConn in first downs and rushing yards, threw for nearly 400 passing yards and even won the turnover battle 3-0. The Terps also only had five penalties for 45 yards which is significantly better than MSU’s 12 for 140 yards against FAU.
Sure all of this took place against UConn, but it appears that Maryland is in a very good spot heading into this big week two matchup.
One thing that I thought would be a positive for Michigan State in this game is that Maryland is breaking in a new quarterback as well. The Terps’ quarterback, Billy Edwards Jr., went off against UConn and completed 20-of-27 passes for 311 yards and two touchdowns. He also is a capable runner and added 39 yards on the ground, so Michigan State will have its hands full on Saturday slowing him down.
The Terps don’t have one standout running back in the backfield, so that does benefit MSU. They do however have two solid backs in Roman Hemby and Nolan Ray who both ran for over 60 yards and one score each.
The one player however that Michigan State needs to pay the most attention to is wide receiver Tai Felton. He had one of the best Week 1 performances in the country as he recorded seven receptions for 178 yards and two touchdowns. Thankfully MSU’s defense and secondary looked much improved against FAU, so hopefully that carries over into this weekend’s matchup.
The opportunity in front of MSU on Saturday is massive. The Spartans are big underdogs in this matchup which they probably deserve, but a win would do wonders not just for the overall perception of the team but for their confidence moving forward.
I’ve got a strange feeling that we’re going to be very happy around 7 p.m. ET Saturday night.
