Orion Anderson, Jahi Jones and Philip Spadafora each earned their first dual victories of the season, but the Maryland wrestling team fell by a score of 26-9 to Central Michigan on Sunday.
The loss drops Maryland to 0-3 in the dual season, while Central Michigan earned its first win, improving to 1-2. The Chippewas’ victory sees them avenge their 23-15 loss to Maryland in the 2011-12 season, the last time these sides met.
The home side was once again without stars Youssif Hemida and Ryan Diehl, as well as Alfred Bannister, who was still banged up from his individual 5-4 decision victory in Fridays 31-6 loss against Navy.
