Maryland wrestling officially has a new head coach. Director of Athletics Damon Evans announced Tuesday afternoon that former Missouri associate head coach Alex Clemsen will take charge of the program.
Clemsen helped develop three NCAA individual title winners and 22 All-Americans with the Tigers. During his five years with the program, Missouri went 84-7 in dual meets and had five consecutive top-six team finishes at the NCAA Championships.
Prior to his time at Missouri, Clemsen spent five seasons as an assistant head coach at Virginia. In his first season with the Cavaliers, they won their first ACC Championship since 1977.
