Entering the 157-pound bout, Maryland wrestling was without a single point, trailing Rutgers 18-0.

But Jahi Jones defeated Michael Van Brill in a tight match to finally get the Terps on the board. Jones dominated the first period after securing a takedown on Brill and continued to add to his riding time through the second.
