The transfer from Charlotte will play in his first NCAA tournament game when the Terps take on West Virginia in the first round Thursday.
That December victory, the team’s first over a ranked opponent, helped transform the perception of Maryland from a rebuilding program with a new coach into a legitimate NCAA tournament contender. For Young, the heroics proved he belonged.Young called his mom afterward and told her quietly: “Mom, God is finally blessing me.” And she cried, because she knew how long he had waited for these moments.
In high school and with Team Takeover on the AAU circuit, budding stars surrounded Young. He played with Jeremy Roach , Hunter Dickinson and others who earned the attention of the nation’s top college programs. Young never did. So eventually, as he narrowed his options and assessed pros and cons written on a poster board, he chose Charlotte over Old Dominion.
