Maryland Terrapins
(15-1, 4-0 B1G)
12 January 2016
Good evening and welcome back to Crisler Arena! It's a new year, new semester, and
B1G Ten season is in full swing. While Michigan may have lost to Purdue at Mackey
Arena last Thursday, its time to collect ourselves as our Wolverines take on the #3
Maryland Terrapins tonight! The Terps are coming into town with a 13-1 overall record and
a 4-0 conference record which sets the stage for a game of epic proportions. Let's keep
the energy high and keep Crisler rocking as we get #CrislerLOUD. Go Blue!
Terps Trivia!: According to the Internet, a terrapin is a "small edible turtle with lozengeshaped markings on its shell, found in coastal marshes of the eastern US." With the cold
temperatures, turtle soup is definitely what we will be having for dinner tonight. Other
famous turtles include Franklin, Donatello, Leonardo, Michelangelo, Raphael, Yertle and
Crush. Jaylen Brantly (#1) spells selfie as celfie. Dion Wiley's (#5) Twitter handle is
@NoShawties. Charmander was Jared Nicken's (#11) first Pokemon. He likes to catch
'em all. Kent Auslander (#23) goes by @youngballa_23 on Twitter despite only balling for
12 minutes over 7 games this season.
An International Party: As our very own Moe Wagner is from Germany, Maryland has a
couple guys of their own from Europe. Ivan Bender (#13) is from Bosnia-Herzegovina
while Michal Cekovsky (#15) is from Slovakia. It's as if the summer Olympics came early!
The Rest of the Terrapins: Trevor Anzmann (#12), Varun Ram (#21), Andrew Terrell
(#24), Diamond Stone (#33).
Keep it classy, Rage: As one of college basketball’s premiere student sections, it’s important that we
refrain from swearing or using other slurs throughout the game. The University of Michigan is an institution
of class, and as a collective representative, we need to uphold this standard.

Float like a Butterfly, Sting like a Wolverine: When Spike stepped
down earlier this year, minutes became available at point guard.
One of the primary beneficiaries has been Muhammad-Ali AbdurRahkman. His defense has always been stellar, but he’s taken a
much more important role on offense, averaging nearly 20 points a
game over the last two contests. His contributions on both ends of
the floor will be key during this tilt against the Terrapins.
The Big X-Factor: Junior Mark Donnal is another player who has
really stepped up his play this B1G season. It started with a 26 point,
9 rebound performance at Illinois and continued with another 16-8
game against Penn State. Although he struggled at Purdue recently,
he’ll look to rebound tonight against Maryland and “diaper dandy”
Diamond Stone.

Offense:
- Here we go Michigan, here we go!
(clap clap)
- Let’s Go Michigan! (clap, clap, clap
clap clap)
- Go, Blue, Go! (clap clap clap)
- Let’s Go Blue! (clap)
- Go Blue! (clap clap)
Defense:
- Popcorn (Jump up and down while
screaming OHHHHH!!)
- Bounce! Bounce! Pass! (Yell
“bounce” when the opposition
dribbles, and “pass” when they pass)
“A”-BOMB: When Aubrey Dawkins hits a three, drop back in your seats as if
a bomb has violently shaken Crisler Arena.
