JARON SMITH'S WIN ON SENIOR NIGHT GIVES TERPS 19-18 VICTORY OVER PURDUE

STORY LINKS

COLLEGE PARK, MD -- Maryland won its first Big Ten dual match since Jan. 10, 2016 with a dramatic 19-18 win over Purdue on Friday night at the XFINITY Pavilion. Eighth-year senior Jaron Smith clinched the win for the Terps (9-7, 1-6) with a 3-2 decision at heavyweight, sending the crowd and team into a frenzy. 

Maryland rallied by winning four of the final five matches. After trailing 9-0 and 15-4, the Terps made the comeback. John Martin Best won in overtime, 6-5 at 165. Then Dominic Solis captured a 5-4 decision. 

In his return to action after an injury, No. 17 Jaxon Smith pinned Hayden Filipovichin 2:00 to bring the Terps within 18-16, setting the stage for Jaron Smith's 3-2 victory. 

With nine wins, the Terps have their most wins in a season since the 2013-14 season when Maryland went 9-8. Dating to that Big Ten win in 2016, a 26-10 victory over Michigan State, Maryland had lost 63 consecutive Big Ten duals. 

From Coach Clemsen

"The guys were down (at intermission) and I liked that because it's important to them, but I told them that dual meets are all aboiut momentum and energy. We went on runs last and we could do that again this year. We just needed one to get it started and John got it started. Dom followed it up, (Makosy) fought hard, Jaxon with the big pin---it was good. I believed in our team that we could win tonight and am very thankful that we did. "

Maryland. Has. Finally. Won. A. B1G. Dual.

H.F.S.

They did win a dual, but just to clarify this is not their first ever win of a Big Ten in conference dual. They beat Michigan State their second year in the conference.  This makes 2 wins in their history of big ten conference duals.

Man, and we think some of the other BIG teams have had it rough. Clemsen should get the Purple Heart for bravery, taking this job. Hope they keep it going, for the sake of wrestling.

Jaron Smith v Myles Martin was the most anticipated matchup at the 2014-15 Maryland All-Star Tri-Meet

It has been quite some time for and old fart like myself but I think Martin won by tech fall.

If teams start dropping the Mighty Turtles from their schedules next season, we will know why:

Treatment of Chelonaphobia

For many individual who are suffering from turtles (branch of herpetophobia & zoophobia) – Chelonaphobia. Don’t always feel the need of treatment because they can just avoid the object of their fear. This gives people suffering from Chelonaphobia a feeling of control on the problem. But sometimes avoiding turtles (branch of herpetophobia & zoophobia) might not be possible or enough.

It is important for someone to always seek professional help when possible. This way you don’t lose time and do a better job and understanding what is happening. With understanding you can next move on to overcoming your fear of turtles (branch of herpetophobia & zoophobia).

Fake news.

Michigan State's duals only count when they win... to me...

Really admire that kid (well maybe not a kid anymore). All kinds of injuries but he keeps at it because he loves it.

Never argue with an idiot. They will only bring you down to their level and beat you with experience.
