    UMD15: Incoming heavyweight Youssif Hemida ready for the challenge

    Episode 15 of the Maryland Mat Chat looks to the future as we talk with one of the standouts from the incoming recruiting class, New York's Youssif Hemida. Hemida become Mamaroneck's first state champion in school history when he captured the 220-pound state championship in 2014. A two-time All-American in freestyle in Fargo, Hemida talks about his ascension up the ranks and why he chose Maryland over Pittsburgh and Minnesota. Hemida, just 17, plans to redshirt and pack on some more pounds to get ready for the size and strength of Division I heavyweights. Standing tall over his opposition is common, but come wrestling season, he'll be the shorter wrestler on the mat when he spars with teammate Dawson Peck. We'll talk with Hemida about his career goals, why Kerry McCoy's influence was a big draw and of course, wrestling in the Big Ten.

    UMD13: Kevin Kearns has wrestled, coached and done just about everything in nearly 50 years in and around the University

    To call Kevin Kearns a "longtime" contributor and coach with Maryland wrestling would be an understatement. Kearns, who started his wrestling career in 1966 with the Terps, is approaching his 40th year on staff in College Park. On Episode 13 of the Maryland Mat Chat, we start with a discussion about Maryland wrestling and its history, but quickly dive into the mind of a great wrestling storyteller. Kearns tells us about his tour of duty in Vietnam, training with the Iron Sheik in Minnesota, meeting Bob Hope and owning a restaurant in Delaware where one of his patrons was future Vice President Joe Biden. The man who worked with five of the seven coaches in Terp wrestling history gives us some straight gold in this episode.
