 HARTFORD, Conn. (AP) - Ice and snow delayed by a day Maryland's arrival in Connecticut for the first two rounds of the NCAA tournament. But a bracket that includes Tennessee, Oklahoma and Ohio State is expected to be a bigger obstacle as the Terps (27-5) try to repeat as national champions.
"We don't whine, we shine," said Maryland coach Brenda Frese. "We're all about not looking at the negative. We want to look at what the positives are, and if people deem this as the toughest bracket you've got to get through, more power to the team that is able to get through it."
A winter storm that dropped several inches of snow and ice on the Northeast forced Maryland to cancel its charter flight on Friday. So the Terps didn't arrive at the Hartford Civic Center until about 1 p.m. Saturday, some 26 hours before their first-round game against No. 15 Harvard.
