ACC Tuesday Hoops: Maryland, Virginia win; FSU falls to Auburn

Maryland routs Colgate: Jordan Williams had 12 points and 11 rebounds for his eighth straight double-double, and Maryland used an early 22-0 run to blow past Colgate 95-40 on Tuesday night.

Williams' string of double-doubles is four short of the school record, set by Len Elmore in the 1973-74 season. Williams, a 6-foot-10 sophomore forward, has reached double figures in both points and rebounds in 12 of 14 games this season.

Adrian Bowie scored 16 points and freshman guard Terrell Stoglin had 12 in his first college start for the Terrapins (10-4). Cliff Tucker and Dino Gregory also scored 12 for Maryland, which next faces top-ranked Duke on the road Sunday night.

Torrid Shooting Leads Cavaliers Over Howard 84-63: Mustapha Farrakhan made his first 11 shots from the field, including eight 3-pointers, and scored a career-high 31 points Tuesday night, leading Virginia to a 84-63 victory against Howard.

Joe Harris hit five 3-pointers and added 16 points for the Cavaliers (10-5), who snapped out of a long-distance funk in which they went 11 for 63 over their past three games. Virginia was 16 for 25 from beyond the arc, falling two 3s shy of the single-game school record.

Mike Phillips scored 21 points and Dadrian Collins 15 for Howard (2-11), which lost despite shooting 53 percent (24 of 45) with eight 3s. The Bison couldn't keep pace with Farrakhan.

The senior had 18 points by halftime. He hit five 3s during a streak of nine consecutive 3-pointers for the Cavaliers, who took command with a 31-12 burst. It gave them a 41-28 lead, and the Bison only cut it to single digits once after that.

Seminoles Fall To Auburn: Chris Singleton had a game-high 20 points to go along with 10 rebounds, and Derwin Kitchen scored 12 for the Seminoles, but it wasn't enough as FSU fell to Auburn 65-60. Entering the game, the Seminoles had lost only to No. 2 Ohio State, Florida and Butler.

Josh Langford scored a career-high 16 points as Auburn notched its fourth win in a row .

The Tigers (7-7), whose most significant win entering Monday came against Middle Tennessee State, beat a team that was fresh off a win over Baylor, a 3-seed in last year's NCAA Tournament.

Florida State (11-4) got off to a frigid start in the first half, shooting 24.2 percent from the floor (8 of 33) and 6.7 percent from 3-point range (1 of 15).

Auburn took a 27-22 lead into halftime thanks to 11 points from Langford, who knocked down 3 of 4 from beyond the arc in the first half.

The Seminoles put together a 9-2 run out of the break punctuated by a Chris Singleton steal and slam to retake the lead, 31-29, with 17:32 to go.
