Alex Clemsen has been named the seventh head coach of the Maryland wrestling program, athletic director Damon Evans announced Tuesday.
Clemsen comes to College Park after five years at Missouri, where he served as the program's associate head coach for the past four seasons. During his time on staff, Clemsen helped Missouri wrestlers earn three NCAA individual titles, 22 All-America honors and five consecutive top-six team finishes at the NCAA championships. Missouri went a combined 84-7 in dual meets during his five seasons.
Clemsen replaces Kerry McCoy, who announced last month that he would step down after the NCAA championships after serving as Terps coach for the past 11 seasons.
