TALLAHASSEE, Fla. (AP) - Michael Snaer scored 19 points and Ian Miller had 18 as Florida State defeated Maryland 84-70 on Tuesday night. 

Bernard James added 17 points as the Seminoles (12-6, 3-1 Atlantic Coast Conference) used a 21-3 second-half run to pull away. 

Terrell Stoglin, the ACC's scoring leader, had 27 points and Nick Faust added 10 points for Maryland (12-5, 2-2). 

Maryland led 42-40 with 17:18 left in the game, but Deividas Dulkys keyed Florida State's big run with a pair of 3-pointers as the Seminoles grabbed a comfortable 61-45 lead.
