    Campbell tops The Citadel, Davidson to extend SoCon dual win streak to 14

    CHARLESTON, S.C. -- Campbell extended its Southern Conference dual winning streak to 14 with wins over The Citadel and Davidson Saturday at McAlister Field House.

    The Camels (6-1, 5-0 SoCon) topped The Citadel (4-3, 3-2 SoCon) 34-7 to open the day's action, then blanked Davidson (1-4, 1-4 SoCon) 45-0 for their second shutout win of the year.

    Campbell jumped out to a 12-0 lead and never trailed against The Citadel. Austin Murphy led off with a decision at 174, and after a Celeb Hopkins decision, Levi Hopkins' pin at 197 pounds put CU ahead 12-0.

    Entering the lineup for the first time this season, Spencer Leonhardt notched a fall at 141 pounds. Benjamin Barton also picked up a major decision at 157.

    Against the Wildcats, Campbell earned bonus points at five weight classes, including pins for Caleb Hopkins (184) and Bilal Bailey (165), a Benjamin Barton tech fall (157), a major decision for Murphy (174) and a forfeit at 125.

    Campbell will complete its final scheduled matchups of the abbreviated 2020-21 season on February 5, taking on Chattanooga and SoCon newcomer Bellarmine in Chattanooga, Tenn. The SoCon Championships are set for February 28 in Boone, N.C.
