Maryland's wrestling program operated at a $1.6 million deficit in FY2025, generating just $332K in revenue — nearly 80% of which came from Direct Institutional Support rather than external sources. At $1.9 million in total expenses, the program ranks 17th among the 28 FBS schools that sponsor wrestling and sits below the FBS average of $2.7 million, though costs have grown steadily from $1.2 million in FY2020. Athletic Student Aid represents the program's single largest expense at $608K, reflecting the scholarship commitments driving much of that upward spending trend.
