NC State wrestling concluded its participation in the 2024 Cliff Keen Las Vegas Invitational with Isaac Trumble securing a second-place finish in the heavyweight category. Trumble's journey to the championship match included victories over Cornell's Aiden Compton, Northern Iowa's No. 20 Lance Runyon, and Arizona State's No. 5 Cohlton Schultz. His wins were achieved through bonus point victories, including a fall, a technical fall, and a major decision. However, he was pinned by third-ranked Wyatt Hendrickson of Oklahoma State in the finals.
Other competitors for NC State during the weekend included Vince Robinson at 125 lbs, Troy Hohman at 133 lbs, Koy Buesgens at 149 lbs, Derek Fields at 165 lbs, Matty Singleton at 174 lbs, and Andrew Macchiavello at 197 lbs. These wrestlers were eliminated from both the championship and consolation brackets after day one. Robinson was scheduled to compete in the championship bracket quarterfinals for the 125-pound weight class but had to medically forfeit the rest of the tournament.
The team will next travel to Ithaca, New York later this month to face No. 11 Cornell on their home ground.
