Olivia Olson scored 28 points with eight rebounds and Syla Swords added 17 points as No. 8 Michigan closed out its regular-season schedule with an 87-69 victory over No. 14 Maryland at Ann Arbor, Mich.
The Wolverines (24-5, 15-3 Big Ten) moved into sole possession of second place in the Big Ten Conference standings, a half of a game ahead of No. 9 Iowa, which concludes its season on Sunday at Wisconsin. The Hawkeyes beat Michigan in the lone regular-season meeting.
Mila Holloway had 12 points and six assists for Michigan, which won its second consecutive game after losing to Iowa last Sunday. The Wolverines went 3-1 to close out the regular season, all in games against ranked teams.
Oluchi Okananwa scored 19 points and Yarden Garzon added 14 for the Terrapins (23-7, 11-7), who allowed Michigan to score at least 20 points in every quarter and never recovered from a 46-31 deficit at halftime.
No. 25 Princeton 62, Harvard 49
The visiting Tigers didn't let an early deficit prevent them from surging past the Crimson in Cambridge, Mass., for their fourth consecutive victory and sixth in their last seven games.
Fadima Tall scored a game-high of 18 points with nine rebounds for Princeton (23-3, 11-2 Ivy League). Skye Belker added 13 points, Ashley Chea had 12 and Olivia Hutcherson blocked three shots. The Tigers shot 24 of 51 (47%) from the field and scored 18 points off their opponent's 15 turnovers.
Harvard, which led 13-11 after the opening quarter, lost for just the second time in its last nine games. The Crimson, which made just 17 of 57 field-goal attempts (29.8%), including 7 of 27 from long range, was led by Karlee White with 10 points and Olivia Jones with nine boards.
