Crystal Langhorne had 34 points and 14 rebounds to lead the Terps past Wake.

"It was definitely nice, especially when the post was needed today," said Langhorne. "We got a tough win. It was just a nice victory, altogether." It was Maryland's third overtime win this season.

Down in Miami, the Canes opened up a 20-4 lead to start the game, and Virginia Tech never recovered. Miami is now one of only four teams above .500 in the the tough ACC. Virginia Tech, though still ranked, is in the cellar at 1-5.
