Matmen square off in ACC tourney

Matmen face ACC-stalwart Maryland on Senior Night

The Cavalier matmen square off against Maryland tomorrow during Senior Night in their final match before postseason play. They face a menacing Terrapin squad ranked first in the ACC and led by senior Hudson Taylor, who ranks first in the NCAA with 22 pins on the season, including one during the Terrapins' last match against Hofstra. Maryland (18-4, 3-0 ACC), currently ninth in the nation, is one of the highest ranked opponents that No.
