Women’s basketball: Terps to play MSU on Thursday

The women’s basketball matchup between No. 7 Maryland and Michigan State has been moved to Thursday at 4 p.m. at the Xfinity Center and will be televised on the Big Ten Network.

The matchup between the Terps (11-2, 7-1 Big Ten) and Spartans (9-2, 4-2) was originally scheduled for Feb. 10. Maryland was supposed to host Rutgers on Thursday, but that game was postponed because of health concerns within the Scarlet Knights’ program.

The Terps defeated Michigan State in the teams’ first meeting, 93-87, in East Lansing, Michigan, on Jan. 7.

It also was announced that Maryland’s matchup at Nebraska (8-5, 6-4) on Sunday, Feb. 14 will tip off at 5 p.m. and will be televised on Fox Sports 1.
