Justin Ahrens will enter Ohio State's starting five for the first time on Saturday.
After scoring four points in seven minutes against Northwestern on Wednesday, Chris Holtmann opted to shift Musa Jallow back to the bench and insert Ahrens into the starting lineup for the Buckeyes' game against Maryland.
With C.J. Jackson missing the game with a shoulder injury, Keyshawn Woods will start at guard. The starting five consists of Woods, Luther Muhammad, Ahrens, Andre Wesson and Kaleb Wesson.
After Wendesday's win against the Wildcats, Holtmann said he had considered starting Ahrens, but brought him off the bench then started him to begin the second half.
