Game summary

The Maryland Terrapins completed the task they set out to do one year earlier by defeating the Indiana Hoosiers, 64–52. Maryland led virtually the entire game except for a brief point with 9:50 left in the basketball game when Indiana took a 44–42 lead. Maryland answered the Hoosier run and ended the game with a 22–8 run to bring home the school's first and coach Gary Williams' only men's basketball National Championship. Senior Juan Dixon was named the tournament's Most Outstanding Player (MOP).

Aftermath

On November 19, 2012, Maryland would join the Big Ten Conference becoming the 13th member to join the conference. Since Indiana was already in the Big Ten Conference, the two teams would later become conference foes and end up facing each other at least once every year.
