Wrestling Fares Well at Hokie Open

Hokie Open Results

Salem, Va. – A pair of second-place finishes by junior Turtogtokh Luvsandorj and freshman Ugi Undrakhbayar highlighted a solid season-opening effort by The Citadel Wrestling squad at the Hokie Open hosted by Virginia Tech on Saturday.

Luvsandorj finshed 3-1 on the afternoon at 174 pounds, falling by a 3-0 decision in the finals to Te Edwards of Old Dominion. Undrakhbayar placed second at 141 pounds, going 4-1 and dropping a 7-4 decision to Evan Henderson of North Carolina. Other top finishers for the Bulldogs included Richard Alarcon (fifth place – 125 pounds), Josh Tuck (fifth place – 184 pounds) and Kelby Smith (fourth place – 197 pounds).

Below are the results for all of The Citadel's wrestlers, both attached and unattached. Unattached wrestlers' results do not count toward official season results, but do toward NCAA qualification and matches against non-college competitors (NRVWC for example) do not count for official season results nor toward NCAA qualification. Matches against non-Division I wrestlers do not count toward NCAA qualification, either, but do count toward official season results.
