The Iowa Hawkeyes will be back in action on Sunday at Maryland for a Big Ten dual meet at 1 PM CST.
Maryland is 8-6 in dual meets and last competed on January 24 with a 33-7 loss at home to Illinois.
On January 10th Maryland topped at the time #10 Michigan at Michigan, 19-18.
Maryland has five ranked wrestlers that will provide good matchups. The biggest matches for me will be at 157 and Hwt. with Jacori Teemer vs. #6 Ethen Miller and #11 Ben Kueter vs. #12 Seth Nevills.
We will also have a big match at 184 with true freshman Angelo Ferrari vs. #10 Jaxon Smith and #3 Drake Ayala vs. #11 Braxton Brown at 133.
Every single match is important for seeds at Big Tens and Nationals.
I look for Iowa to get back on track and have a good showing against Maryland.
