LAS VEGAS, Nev. – Greg Bulsak and Brock Zacherl wrapped their weekends at the Cliff Keen Invitational by earning spots on the podium, with Bulsak taking sixth and Zacherl seventh by virtue of impressive wins over nationally-ranked opponents on Saturday.
 
Bulsak started his day in the second consolation round of eight against third-seeded Tanner Sloan of South Dakota State, with the latter entering the weekend ranked 11^th in the country at 197 pounds according to FloWrestling.  With the score tied at 2-2 early in the second period, Bulsak escaped and reversed Sloan and immediately went to work.  He tilted his opponent and flattened him for the win by fall to move to the consi round of four against second-seeded and ninth-ranked Jay Aiello of Virginia.  Bulsak led 3-1 after two periods and upped the lead to 5-2, and then held on for the 7-4 decision. 
 
After falling to Cal Poly's Thomas Lane in the consi semifinals, Bulsak battled but ultimately fell to Nebraska's Eric Schultz in the fifth-place match.
 
Zacherl, meanwhile, started his trip in the consolation bracket with a win over 16^th-ranked and 10^th-seeded Russell Rohlfing of CSU-Bakersfield.  He took Rohlfing down and delivered a four-point near fall to take a 6-0 lead in the first period.  That advantage held up the rest of the bout as Zacherl recorded the win by decision.  He dropped a decision to Yahya Thomas in the consi round of four, but rebounded to defeat seventh-seeded and fourth-ranked Collin Purinton in his final match of the weekend to earn a seventh-place finish.
