Terrapins well represented at Capital Classic
Three players who will suit up next season for the Maryland men's basketball team competed Thursday night at the Capital Classic at Bender Arena. Terrell Stoglin, a 6-foot-1 guard, was joined by 6-foot-2 guard Pe'Shon Howard and 6-foot-6 swingman Haukur Palsson on the U.S. All-Star squad, which lost to the Capital All-Stars, 117-108.
Howard finished with 14 points on 6-of-10 shooting, including 2 of 4 from three-point range in 22 minutes. He also tallied three assists and three turnovers.
Stoglin registered 11 points on 4-of-8 shooting, including 3 of 6 from three-point range. He also recorded four rebounds, two assists and two turnovers in 19 minutes.
Palsson played 16 minutes, tallying three points, four rebounds and two steals.
"The experience was real good because we were playing against a lot of ACC players and Big East players, so it was a good time to just come out here and gel together before we go to college," Stoglin said.
In all, 16 of the 23 players who competed Thursday night will play next season in either the ACC or the Big East.
I'll post more from Stoglin, as well as thoughts from Howard and Palsson throughout the day Friday.

From a Terps fan living in Tucson...Stoglin is a great player with a good attitude. Led his team to the state final all 4 years and finally won it this year. Arizona's new coach, Sean Miller, really is sorry they missed out on him. That's what happens when a top program goes through the turmoil AZ did
