SAN JUAN, Puerto Rico -- Andre Roberson scored a career-high 21 points, however Maryland's Terrell Stoglin scored 32 to lead the Terrapins to a 78-71 victory over Colorado on Friday in the Puerto Rico Tip-Off.
Stoglin tied the single-game tournament record with 12 field goals, including 4-for-7 on 3-pointers, and keyed the run that put the Terrapins (2-1) ahead to stay. Sean Mosley added 16 points and Nick Faust 15.
Roberson had a double-double for the Buffaloes (1-2) with 21 points and 13 rebounds. The performance marked the seventh double-double of his career, and he has double-digit rebounds in the first three games of this season (averaging 12.7 per game). Carlon Brown scored 14 points and Austin Dufault 12 for Colorado, which led by 12 in the first half.
Roberson gave Colorado a 60-56 lead with 8:25 left. But Stoglin scored eight straight to finish an 11-0 run that put Maryland ahead 67-60 with 6:01 left.
"Not a very good performance by the Buffaloes," said CU head coach Tad Boyle. "I didn't like the way we played, especially in the second half. I felt like we gave the game to Maryland tonight. I'm disappointed."
The Terrapins hit 49 percent (27 of 55) and shot 52 percent (11 of 21) from 3-point range.
Maryland will play Iona for fifth place Sunday. Colorado will face Western Michigan for seventh. The Buffs tip off at 9:30 a.m. (MT) on Sunday morning. The game will be televised online on ESPN3.
