Who Benefited

Diggy Coit and the Maryland program benefited directly from Coit's career-high scoring night, which preserved the team's win, demonstrated roster scoring depth and provided a highlight for recruiting and media exposure amid injury challenges.

Who Impacted

Mount St. Mary's suffered a close loss after a late rally, and Maryland suffered the loss of Pharrel Payne to a hip injury, which removed a primary interior player and altered team rotation and defensive matchups.
