Northwestern (4-4, 2-4 Big Ten) won its first Big Ten home match of the season against Maryland (5-11, 0-7 Big Ten) Sunday. The Cats won all but two of their eight matches against the Terrapins, triumphing 29-7. The Wildcats will compete against Michigan State on opponent turf Friday.

A previous version of this article misstated the wrestling victory in the headline as the first of the Big Ten Conference. Sunday’s win was the team’s first home win, but not overall win, of the conference. The Daily regrets the error.
