The start of spring practice has brought about a new look for Army, starting with new head coach Jeff Monken and his staff.

The inside scoop on GoBlackKnights.com

Throw away the rivalry today. Navy, Army, and The entire Untied States will mourn the passing of the Navy's Will McKamey.
My thoughts and prayers go out to his Family, Friends, Teammates, and all Midshipmen.
Today, We are a nation in Morning.

I was watching Lenoir Rhynes the other day on you tube and noticed they went out of a three point stance like how we did at west point. Then I noticed that The Citadel coach just came from LR and is doing the same thing there, ive been studying film, im trying to walk on at the Citadel. What is the purpose of this, do you guys think it helps?

I do believe that the networks are dictating to the NFL or should I say to their pockets. Very much like baseball that has been saturated with being on TV so much that no one even goes to the ballparks as much and if they do, they are the older generation for the most part. I can't even recall the last time I went to a baseball game live.

I mean look at this. Obama comes before all these cadets at West Point and just froths before these people and tells them they will obey the foreign powers and kneel before the New World Order. I mean right to their faces. Think about that. He said to these cadets at their own commencement. He basically goes to this and calls for the end of America. That is what the New World Order is. It is subordination of America to a foreign power. It is placing a world power organized predominately by America's most historically vicious adversaries such as China, England, Spain, Mexico, etc....just to name a few, in control collectively over the United States. Obama has also surrendered American control of the internet to the United Nations which is their conduit entity used to mine and strip the United States of its assets, legal systems, and to radically change America from its foundations and Constitution, to a Communist dictatorship with a fascist overlay.

So Obama goes to West Point and humiliates the cadets at commencement and says cadets will die to subordinate America to the crown and you are going to subservient obey these people overseas and you will surrender America before them with grace and gratitude. You will lick the stink off their feet humility style and sniff the smell of their unshowered feet like mere slaves and bow before their commands. I mean can you believe this? Will YOU KNEEL BEFORE FOREIGN POWERS? YOU WILL SUBORDINATE AMERICA BEFORE THE CROWNS OF EUROPE AND YOU WILL LICK THEIR STINKY FEET SLAVE STYLE. AND THE CADETS BASICALLY KNEELED BEFORE OBAMA AND OBEYED HIS COMMAND. THEY TOOK THIS GUY'S FROTH. I MEAN REALLY? THIS IS INCREDIBLE TREASON.



ON VIDEO AN ABSOLUTE SUBORDINATION OF AMERICA TO AN EVIL COLLECTION OF FOREIGN KINGS AND HEADS OF STATE. KNEEL BEFORE THE THRONE STLYE TO THE FACE.

HOW DOES ALEX JONES CALL THIS GUY OUT BEFORE HE IS ELECTED AND WEST POINT CADETS ARE CLAPPING FOR THIS AT THEIR OWN COMMENCEMENT. HOW IS THIS POSSIBLE? WHAT THE HELL IS GOING ON HERE WHO IS IN CHARGE OF AMERICA RIGHT NOW?




WHO'S SIDE ARE YOU ON?



KISSINGER IS A FOREIGN AGENT IN AMERICA BRAGGING TO YOUR FACES THAT OBAMA WORKS FOR THEM TO OVERTHROW AMERICA. HE IS A DUAL CITIZEN. HE ISN'T EVEN FROM AMERICA AND HE PUNKED THE ENTIRE COUNTRY TO THE FACE SLAP STYLE. TALK ABOUT A CLUMSY COUNTRY GETTING SLAPPED AROUND LIKE SOMEBODY'S NERD. WHAT A JOKE!!!!!!!!!

Wasn't able to get the game on the PL network, but great job by Army beating American.

Meanwhile, HC has had two convincing road wins against Bucknell and Navy; so we can't let up.

Any thoughts. I've seen every home game.

Minato is still as good as she was when she won Rookie of the year. a quiet 15-20 every night.
Remember Jen Hazlett, the forward who played like a dervish as a plebe? She's back! another 15 or so every night.
Schretzman and Oertner are the same as last year but we have two plebes who can give valuable minutes when they get inot foul trouble (an all too frequent occurrence). Geyer and Faillor are playing well.
Brianna Johnson has stepped up her game at off-guard.

Overall, we're a better team than last year which went to the NIT.

3-0 in PL play as of 8 Jan

Best to the women in the 2014 NCAA Tournament.

GO ARMY!

I really like the combo of Fowler and Kirk Herbstreit.

Changing of the Guard

WEST POINT, N.Y. (Courtesy of Army Athletic Communication) - Senior Paul Hancock (157 pounds) and sophomores Bryce Barnes (197) and Brian Harvey (174) will represent the Army wrestling team at the NCAA Championships from March 20-22 in Oklahoma City, Okla. The three-day event will take place at the Chesapeake Energy Arena.



Barnes, Hancock and Harvey will join 327 other Division I wrestlers from across the country in the national tournament. By virtue of his finish at the Eastern Intercollegiate Wrestling Association (EIWA) Championships last week, Barnes collected one of the NCAA's 285 automatic bids, while Hancock and Harvey earned at-large selections that were announced on Tuesday. Hancock and Harvey make up a group of 45 at-large selections for NCAA Championships.



Barnes placed sixth at the EIWA Championships after posting a 2-3 record that included an 8-6 win over top-seeded Brandon Palik of Drexel. Barnes, who makes the NCAAs for the second year in a row, went 20-14 this season, including an 8-4 mark in dual matches. The sophomore finished the regular season with wins in 13 of 17 matches, with five in a row coming between Jan. 18 and Feb. 1. Barnes recorded eight bonus-point wins and finished tied for third on the team with two technical falls. Barnes will take on sixth-seeded Richard Perry of Bloomsburg in the first round of the NCAA Championships on March 20.



Hancock will also be making his second appearance at the NCAAs after qualifying for the first time last year. Since winning 15 matches during his first two seasons at Army, Hancock has collected 59 victories, including 27 as a senior. Hancock finished the regular season with a team-leading 10 dual-match wins, 12 bonus-point victories and eight major decisions. The senior put together three separate five-match winning streaks this season, while dropping consecutive bouts just once. Hancock, who took seventh at the EIWAs after going 3-2, will face fifth-seeded Isaac Jordan from Wisconsin in the opening round on March 20.



Harvey makes his first trip to the NCAA Championships after finishing second on the team with 28 wins. The sophomore registered a 7-1 showing in duals, including a 7-0 start before falling to 10th-ranked Matt Miller of Navy in the Black Knights' regular-season finale on Feb. 21. Harvey won eight consecutive matches from Jan. 12 to Feb. 1 that included triumphs in six dual matches. Harvey tied Barnes for third on the team in technical falls (2), while also tallying three major decisions and a pin. The New Palestine, Ind., native will begin his tournament with a match against Oregon State's Joe Latham on March 20.



The NCAA Championships will begin on Thursday, March 20, with Session I getting underway at 11 a.m. Session II will follow with a 6 p.m. start time. March 21 will feature Sessions III and IV, while competition will end on March 22 with Sessions V and VI.

Army goes in as the 2 seed playing # 7 seed Boston U at Christl. Army needs to get past the first round jinx from last year when the bottom seed knocked us out.

Kelsey Minato was honored as the PL POY for the second year. She's fun to watch as she quietly drives the dagger home in final minutes

Jen Hazlet has lived to the potential she showed as a plebe. She is the 16th Army player to score 1000 points. Double digit points and almost 10 rebounds every night. She takes some of the heat off Minato

Danny Faillor made the PL all-rookie team. That's the third year in a row that an Army post-player made the All-Rookie team. She comes off the bench and supports Oertner and Schretzman in the paint.

We are 2-0 vs. BU this year

The Jeff Monken Era Is Beginning !

GET PUMPED UP FOR 2014!

Army's dramatic start and more dramatic finished proved to be among the most entertaining games in quite some time. A Kyle Wilson basket in the bucket gave Army their first second half lead with 12.5 secs. to go. A desperation 3 point shot failed on the Bison side of the court propelling Army to a semi-final date against #1 seed Boston Univ. on Saturday. Will be televised at 3:30 PM on the CBS Sports Network. Beat the Terriors. Why not us !

Overall record 11-10. 7-3 in conference play and 5 of the 8 games are are home. Look for , somehow, someway a 12-6 regular season record and a 3 seed in the league tournement. Anything could happen there. The Patriot League is incredibly tight with the majority of games seemingly coming down to the last possession or two. Big home games against Lehigh tonight ( may be canceled due to weather and rescheduled). To sweep our long term nemisis ( well, everyone seems to be our historical nemisis in baskeball but Lehigh has been especially tough) would be significant. Lehigh has won 4 in a row - significant matchup for the Black Knights ! Improved team shooting and scoring balance is much needed.

WILSON NAMED PATRIOT LEAGUE PLAYER OF THE WEEK
Army Sophomore Averaged 23.0 Points Per Game

CENTER VALLEY, Pa. ? Army sophomore forward Kyle Wilson has been named the Patriot League Anaconda Men's Basketball Player of the Week for his performance in the Black Knights' last two games. Wilson averaged 24.0 points per game to lead Army to a 1-1 week.

The Mission Viejo, Calif., native shot 46.9 percent overall and 42.9 percent from three-point range in Army's two games. He averaged 3.0 rebounds, 3.0 steals and 1.5 assists per game.

Wilson started the week with 23 points, four steals, two assists and two rebounds in an 86-81 overtime loss at Boston University. He scored 11 of his points in the second half as the Black Knights overcame a 22-point deficit to force overtime and accounted for seven of Army's nine points in overtime. He followed that with a 25-point performance in a 77-71 win at Loyola. He was 9-for-10 from the free throw line, including four straight in the final 20 seconds to help preserve the victory.

Wilson is averaging a team-best 19.7 points per game, including 21.2 points per game during Patriot League play. He ranks second in the conference overall and leads the Patriot League during conference action.

The honor is Wilson's second of the season. He is the first Army player to be named Patriot League Player of the Week twice in the same season since Jarrell Brown during the 2007-08 campaign.

Army opens a two-game homestand Wednesday night when it hosts Lehigh. Tip-off is set for 7 p.m. at Christl Arena. The game can be viewed live online at

Well, it is hard to quantify as Army has never remotely been in a place like this in the 25 year history in the Patriot League. Every win seems to set a new record for Army -baskeball performance in their league history. Interestingly, coming into the year Army was picked 3rd in the leaugue.... they are tied for second. American, on the other hand was picked 9th, coming off their worse season in a decade and getting a new coach, little was expected of them. They stand at 7-0.

The Army ballers have frankly "turned the corner" under Coach Spiker. They find way to win when they play well below their capability. They are winning more close those than they lose by a comfortable margin - hell , we rarely were in close games in league play at all 10 years ago.

Within the Patriot League, everyone now considers Army a threat with the deepest team in the league and some legitimate skill players on board. Kyle Wilson is playing himself into a First Team All Patriot League member. Outside the conference , as an , lower mid-mid-major conference, not many eyes are focused on what is going on in a much different looking Patriot League dominated by Bucknell and Lehigh recently. This will change. Should Army find a way to earn a home win today and find themselves tied for first place expect to see a few more stories about this team. Should they win the conference or , don't open your eyes now but, win the post season tournement and go the the NCAA tournement for the first time in school history, expect national level stories and a sure fire chance to say good-bye to Coach Spiker.

The bar is high today. American is playing their best ball of the year after a 30 point win over previously undefeated in league play BU Terrier squad. They are among the top dozen teams in the country in 3 point % - out shooting Army at what has historially been Army's bread and butter. We will have a real chance to see what we are made of this afternoon. We will hav to play much better than we have over the past 3-4 games to earn a major win today. You can watch the game , 4 PM tipoff, free of charge on the Patriot League Network ...go to patriotleague.org for the link.
