Yogi Ferrell poured in 18 points while Troy Williams had 17 points and nine boards for No. 7 seed Indiana (20-13), which hopes for at-large NCAA Tournament bid after dropping four of its last five contests.

Trimble’s three-point play near the end of a 12-2 burst left Maryland with a seven-point edge before Indiana received a 3-pointer from Blackmon and late layup from Ferrell to close with two at the break. The Terrapins refused to give up the lead even after Ferrell drained a triple in the opening minutes of the second half, getting a 3-pointer from Nickens - moments after Indiana pulled within two - and five more points from the freshman during a 7-1 spurt after the Hoosiers closed within 55-54.

Indiana scored the next five points to pull with two on a foul shot from Holt, and Ferrell made it 64-62 on a pair of free throws with 2½ minutes remaining but the Hoosiers went more than six minutes without a field goal down the stretch until Max Hoetzel hit a 3-pointer with three seconds left. The Terrapins, who held a tenuous 68-66 edge with 38 seconds left, hit seven of its last eight foul shots to close it out.
