In the Keydets' last tournament at the Cliff Keen Las Vegas Invitational, VMI had a pair of bout victories from Jordon and 165-pounder Ryan Vigil. Jordon tallied a first-period pin in the opening round that advanced him to the round of 16, where he would hold the third-ranked 149-pounder Lachlan McNeil to a tight decision. Meanwhile, Vigil earned a decision on the consolation side of the bracket.
