MM 1.29: Maryland wrestling routed by top-ranked Penn State

Penn State is the the top-ranked wrestling team in the nation, and it showed why when it came to College Park on Sunday. The Terps won just two of the meet’s 10 matches, falling to the Nittany Lions, 42-6.

Maryland’s Braxton Brown (133 pounds) and Ethen Miller (149) won their bouts via decisions, but Penn State was entirely dominant otherwise. The Nittany Lions, who trotted out a starting lineup with four wrestlers ranked No. 1 in their weight classes, won four matches by pin, two by technical fall and another two by major decision to win their 51st straight dual.
