The Citadel's Frisch takes sixth at Cliff Keen

LAS VEGAS – The Citadel's Matt Frisch earned three victories at this weekend's Cliff Keen Invitational as he brought home sixth place in the 149-pound bracket for the Bulldogs.

Joining Frisch with multiple wins at the event were Joaquin Marquez (125) and Marshall Haas (197), who emerged with two victories each. Collectively, they keyed a Citadel unit that posted a 21st-place finish.

Frisch, who squared off against Hofstra's Cody Ruggirello in the fifth-place bracket, was toppled by fall at the 43-second mark.

In the opening round of the bracket, Frisch earned a 6-4 victory over Clayton Ream (North Dakota State).

He then captured a 9-1 victory over Chris Yankowich (Virginia) to set up a match with Tyler Booth (North Idaho College). In that match, Frisch picked up an 11-2 victory and by virtue of the win earned a fourth-round meeting with Ruggirello.

The Citadel returns to action on Dec. 20 when the Bulldogs host a dual match with Southern Conference rival Campbell at McAlister Field House.
