WOMEN’S BASKETBALL GAME DAY
CHRISTL ARENA The 2009-10 campaign will mark the 20th season that the Donald W. Holleder Center has served as the home to the Army women’s basketball team. It is the 25th year as the venue for Army’s hockey and men’s and women’s basketball teams. The Black Knights officially moved into Army’s premier winter sports showcase for the 1990-91 season. That move coincided with Army’s return to Division I level of competition in joining the newly formed Patriot League. The women’s team left behind some fond memories at Central Gymnasium, its home since first hitting the hardwood in 1976-77, in favor of the modern and luxurious facility located across the street from Michie Stadium. The Holleder Center has been the men’s home court since the winte winter n r of 1985 when they said goodbye to the USMA Field House -- a hom home had o e they e ha ad known for many decades. In the beginning, the women joined the men for doubleheaders at Christl Arena, while hosting the Empire State Tournament their last four years as a Division II school (1987-90). Army won the ESC tournament title and the automatic NCAA Division II Regional bid in 1988, while finishing runner-up its final year (1990). The Holleder Center houses not only the Edward C. Christl Jr. Arena that seats 5,043 for basketball, but the Joseph S. and Frederick H.S. Tate Rink that seats 2,648 for ice hockey as well. The building, dedicated Oct. 1, 1988, was named for Maj. Donald W. Holleder (USMA ’56), who was killed in action in Vietnam in 1967. While at West Point, Holleder excelled in basketball and football. He earned All-America honors in the latter, and has been enshrined in the College Football Foundation Hall of Fame. Holleder was inducted into the Army Sports Hall of Fame in 2006. The basketball arena was named for 1st Lt. Edward C. Christl Jr. (USMA ’44), who was killed in Austria in 1945. Elected captain of the basketball team his senior year, Christl led the Cadets to a perfect 15-0 record. The building is constructed of concrete and steel-framed masonry complete with spectator and support facilities. It contains two concession areas, an Army Athletic Association gift shop, ticket office, sports medicine room, storage areas

Christl Arena possesses a Horner hardwood basketball floor, which was refurbished during the summer of 2001 to incorporate Army’s new athletic logo. It was then refinished again during the summer of 2008 in order to feature “West Point” on each baseline. The floor measures 149 x 116 feet. Showers and locker facilities for Army’s men’s and women’s squads, plus three visiting team locker rooms are located close by. The arena also contains six portable basketball supports and fixed chair and bench seating for spectators. During the 1999-2000 season, the Academy enhanced patrons’ gameviewing pleasure by replacing the four-sided overhead scoreboard at midcourt with two wall-mounted units. The scoreboards, located on the north and south walls of Christl Arena, feature state-of-the-art signage and digital displays, along with accompanying boards that show player point and foul totals. Christl Arena has been host to other sporting events such as international volleyball and gymnastics meets and exhibition basketball contests and wrestling matches. It has also been the site of various intercollegiate and high school championship tournaments, including the 2008 NCAA Men’s and Women’s Collegiate Rifle Championships last March. Christl Arena also hosted the 2005 NCAA Men’s Gymnastics Championship and will do so again in April 2010. Christl Arena hosted quarterfinal and semifinal rounds of the Patriot League men’s and women’s tournament in 1994-95 and again in 1998-99. Most recently, Christl served as the backdrop for the 2006 Patriot League Women’s Tournament. After earning the No. 1 seed in the postseason tournament, the Black Knights hosted quarterfinal and semifinal rounds as well as the championship game. Christl also served as the site for the opening two rounds of the women’s tournament in 2007-08. Army’s women have authored a 161-106 mark during its 19-year stay at Christl Arena.
RANDALL HALL:
THE OFF-COURT “HOME” OF ARMY BASKETBALL One of the greatest installments of Army’s vast “Margin of Excellence” athletics facilities enhancement program, Randall Hall was completed in the summer of 2005. The 22,000-square-foot facility has already impacted the Army basketball programs by providing a “state-of-the-art” building that boasts sparkling new coaches offices, team rooms and locker rooms, along with a plush 234-seat auditorium complete with the latest audiovisual capabilities. The building is connected to the Holleder Center via the Class of 1956 Walkway, an enclosed aerial corridor that discharges travelers onto the second floor of the Holleder Center, just outside Christl Arena. The Walkway includes a “Cold War Memorial” with plaques, graphics and other memorabilia. The Army team room and locker area rival the best in the Patriot League. A spacious getaway for the cadet-athletes, the team room is complete with plush leather coaches and chairs, a mini-kitchen area, three computer modules and a 52-inch LCD television, which was purchased in 2009. The adjacent locker room features wood lockers for all players and managers and an automatic pull-down projection screen that is utilized for film sessions and instruction.

ATHLETIC TRAINING Stationed on the first floor of Kimsey Athletic Center, Army’s athletic training department moved into its new and spacious home in the spring of 2003. The athletic training room now covers 9,500 square feet, housing the finest equipment available for the prevention, treatment and rehabilitation of athletic injuries. Highlights of the facility include a 1,202-square-foot cardiovascular room containing more than 25 pieces of equipment; a state-ofthe-art hydrotherapy area equipped with a 2,018-square-foot rehabilitation pool, Jacuzzi, two large pools and four regular pools; 10 treatment tables; five modular taping tables; highdensity storage; and a physician’s office with X-ray capability. The training room also features a vast array of the latest treatment and rehabilitation equipment. Thanks to the expansive new treatment area, Army’s athletic training staff can serve countless Black Knight athletes simultaneously so they are able to realize their full potential on the “fields of friendly strife.” Army’s athletic trainers are under the direction of Tim Kelly.

SEASON OUTLOOK
速
2009-10 WOMEN’S BASKETBALL MEDIA GUIDE 2009-10: BACK TO BASICS A talented group with very little experience accurately defines the 2009-10 Army women’s basketball team. The Black Knights embark on this year’s campaign with seven freshmen and not a single senior on the roster, but the team remains cautiously optimistic under veteran head coach Dave Magarity. As Magarity enters his 27th career season and fourth directing the Black Knights, he does so with a roster that strongly focuses on junior F Erin Anthony in the post and junior G Nalini Hawkins running the point. In addition to their return, junior G/F Laura Baranek, known for a versatile and physical game, started all but one game last year while classmate G Jessie Coiffard played in all 31 games and earned quality playing time that will be essential to her continued development this year. Aside from the Class of 2011, the remainder of Army’s 16-member roster has played a combined 204 minutes of collegiate basketball. Five of Army’s seven freshmen, however, did spend one season at the USMA Prep School in Fort Monmouth, N.J., giving them a bit of a leg-up upon arrival at West Point. Magarity is well aware that he is heading into some uncharted territory this season, all in an effort to maintain a lofty tradition of success that West Point women’s basketball has enjoyed in the past. Army has averaged 20 wins a year during the Magarity era (2006-present), but has also seen two of the top three scorers in program history graduate – Cara Enright ’08 and Alex McGuire ’09. “I’ve been a little spoiled my first three years here because I’ve had the luxury of coaching some terrific, experienced talent,” Magarity noted. “This year is definitely going to be focused on the development of players and that’s going to take time. We have seven players on this roster that have never played a
minute of Division I basketball. You can’t put a price on playing time. “Our biggest challenge will be to see who rises, steps up and who basically separates themselves from the pack,” he said. “The biggest challenge for us right now is identifying who will be the complimentary players to (Erin) Anthony and (Nalini) Hawkins. If you have a good point guard and you have a good center, which I believe we do, then that’s a good foundation on which to build.” BACKCOURT Half of Army’s roster is made up of guards, leaving room for a healthy amount of competition during practice. Out of the Black Knights’ eight true guards, only two – Hawkins and Coiffard – have any significant playing experience. Baranek, the only player listed as a guard/forward, will reprise her role as a guard or small forward depending on match-ups and team needs. Hawkins caught fire at the end of last season on her way to being the only player who did not participate in the Patriot League Championship game to garner AllTournament Team laurels. The three-year starter buried five three-point buckets and finished with a career-high 24 points in a quarterfinal win over Holy Cross. She followed that stellar performance with 20 points in a semifinal setback against eventual champion Lehigh. Third on the team averaging 8.5 points per game a year ago, Hawkins will be looked upon to become a more consistent offensive contributor as a junior. “This is Hawkins’ time. She’s coming off a tremendous showing in the tournament, which proved that she is capable of putting up 20-plus points on any given night,” Magarity said. “She learned a lot and played a lot of minutes her first two years. She’s also been given a lot of responsibility. In the past, she’s had the luxury of having a great player next to her in Alex McGuire. Alex was always there to draw a lot of the attention and also to help and guide Hawkins when she needed it. This is Nalini’s show now and it’s her time to step up to the plate.” After seeing very limited time as a rookie, Coiffard played in all 31 games last year and averaged around 14 minutes per contest. More adept as a shooting guard, Coiffard does offer a three-point threat along with solid ball handling skills. Impressed with her effort in the off-season, Magarity said he will lean a bit more on a matured Coiffard in 2009-10. “Jessie (Coiffard) benefited greatly from her playing time as a sophomore,” he said. “We’re excited about her attitude and development. We keep pushing her every day and she’s developing into somebody that could play a key role in our success this year.” Playing competitive basketball for the first time since high school, Baranek, a transfer from Seton Hall, scored in double-figures in her first three games wearing the Black, Gold and Gray. She finished the season averaging 6.8 points per game and rounds out Army’s three returning starters. “Laura (Baranek) got a tremendous amount of experience last year and she will benefit from those minutes,” Magarity said. “She needs to learn to exude her physical presence and become more of a finisher.” Hawkins, Coiffard and Baranek aside, sophomores Meagan Doucette and Erin Jankowski will vie for increased playing time this season. The pair saw action in 13 and six games last year, respectively, and will look to draw on those experiences in order to add depth to Army’s guards. Among Army’s three freshmen guards, one name will likely be familiar to Army basketball fans. After a season-ending injury kept her from even starting the 2008-09 campaign, Liz Benedict returns to West Point for her first year of eligibility. A highly recruited prospect, Magarity is confident that Benedict has the talent to be a major contributor once she has fully returned to top form.

“Liz is getting better every day,” he said. “I was extremely excited about her last year and very disappointed when an injury kept her off the court. She’s still not

2009-10 WOMEN’S BASKETBALL MEDIA GUIDE 2009-10: BACK TO BASICS where she wants to be – or where I want her to be – but she’s continuing to improve her confidence which is the first step.” Fellow rookie Molly Yardley was one of two freshmen to make her way directly to West Point as one of the Magarity’s top recruits. Yardley comes to the Academy from nearby Connecticut, while freshman Karleen Paulin rounds out the guards out of South Carolina. FRONT COURT Clearly the focal point coming into the year, second team All-Patriot League honoree and Scholar-Athlete of the Year, the spotlight is on Anthony. A preseason all-conference pick as a junior, the Lehigh Valley native led the Patriot League in rebounds (8.2 per game) and represents the team’s top returning scorer (12.3 points per game). Anthony will also add the title of team captain on a team without a single senior. “The pressure is on her and she knows it,” Magarity said. “The test will be how she handles it all. Teams are going to double and triple-team her every night. We’ve worked a lot on her physical development and ability to get open on her own. Although I think that we will be more of a perimeter-oriented team this year, it’s no secret that Anthony is our best returning player on both ends of the floor.” Anthony, who registered seven double-doubles (points, rebounds) last year, enters her junior season ranked fifth on Army’s all-time blocks list with 83. Expected to play this season primarily as a small forward as a sophomore, Kait Goodall will draw on a solid amount of experience as a rookie heading into 2009-10. Goodall played in 19 games, which included seven Patriot League contests.

Preseason Player of the Year: Erica Prosser, Lehigh Patriot League play begins with home contests against Colgate and Holy Cross on Jan. 9 and 13, respectively. Army will host rival Navy for the annual Star Game on Saturday, Feb. 20. Holy Cross will host the first two rounds of the 2010 Patriot League Tournament, while the highest remaining seed will host the title game on March 10.
“Kait should benefit greatly from her playing time as a rookie,” Magarity said. “She came to play during preseason and I’m confident that she will provide quality minutes for us as an undersized post.” Junior Laura Burdick, who is working her way back into the fold from a seasonending knee injury as a freshman, and sophomore Lauren Lybbert each bring limited experience to the team. Both do add depth to the forwards, however, and offer good size at 6-1. Freshmen Alison Grapevine and Megan Maurer spent last season at the USMA Prep School, gaining experience and improving skills, while Anna Simmers came to West Point by way of Alaska. All three have the talent level to contribute in their first season on the banks of the Hudson. SCHEDULE Army opens the 2009-10 season for the second year in a row against Wagner on Friday, Nov. 13. A challenging schedule that features 14 non-conference and 14 Patriot League games, the Black Knights will play seven games during a busy November. Army will host service-academy rival Air Force the eve of Thanksgiving. December begins with a modest three-game homestand opposite Fairleigh Dickinson (Dec. 2), Manhattan (Dec. 8) and Oklahoma (Dec. 10) within a span of eight days. Clearly the most challenging opponent on the Black Knights’ slate, Oklahoma is coming off a season in which it made a run to the 2009 NCAA Women’s Final Four. The Sooners enter this year ranked #8/13 in the national preseason polls. Army will also take on NCAA Tournament participant Georgia Tech to ring in the New Year in Atlanta, Ga. “We have never been a program to shy away from a challenge,” Magarity said. “Again this year, our schedule reflects that notion. It’s extremely difficult early on, which will also help us to really find out who we are as a team. It’s my hope that we’ll be playing better basketball when Patriot League play begins in January and playing our best basketball in March with an opportunity to advance.”

ARMY IN THE COMMUNITY The Army women’s basketball team falls in line with the rest of West Point’s varsity teams when it comes to visibility in the community. The Black Knights take great pride in reaching out to local youth groups and serving as role models for children in the Hudson Valley. Over the past year, the Army women’s basketball team has spent time at the Girl Scout Heart of the Hudson camp as well as Black Knights Alley, a family fun zone prior to every home Army football game. The team was on hand to shoot baskets, along with signing autographs and face painting. Army also remains an active participant in the WBCA’s Pink Zone to raise breast cancer awareness, while also celebrating National Girls and Women Sports Day annually. an nd Wo Wome en In S po ortss Da ay an a n al nu a lyy.

2009-10 WOMEN’S BASKETBALL MEDIA GUIDE
head COACH dave MAGARITY Fourth Season Record at Army: 60-31 College Men’s Coaching Record: 313-334, 23 seasons College Women’s Coaching Record: 61-30, three seasons Overall Record: 374-364, 26 seasons A Hudson Valley coaching veteran chosen to lead an up-and-coming program at one of the nation’s most prestigious institutions. That’s the story line that unfolded in April 2006 when the leadership at the United States Military Academy announced Dave Magarity as Army’s eighth women’s basketball head coach in program history. Magarity was chosen to take the reins following what had been a “Cinderella” storybook season in 2005-06 for the Black Knights until their head coach, Maggie Dixon, died suddenly in the spring. Magarity spent the 2005-06 season on the bench with Dixon, serving as associate head coach and playing an integral role in the Black Knights’ magical season during which the team won its firstever Patriot League Tournament title and ensuing NCAA Tournament berth. “After speaking with a number of people associated with our women’s basketball program, including the players and staff members, it was very clear that Dave Magarity was the best person to lead our program at this time,” said Army director of athletics Kevin Anderson of Magarity’s hiring. “He was the only person we considered. “Dave has built an impeccable coaching career over 30 years as a collegiate (men’s) coach. He is a man of high character and is highly respected through basketball circles around the country. We felt very fortunate to add Dave to our staff, and he played a large role in the success our squad experienced.” Magarity has since been writing his own story in the West Point history books, one that has maintained a rich winning tradition. Authoring a 6031 record as Army’s head coach, Magarity’s Black Knights have averaged 20 wins a season over the past three years. Mentoring two of the top three scorers in program history during his time - Cara Enright ’08 and Alex McGuire ’09, Magarity’s faces what should be his most challenging season on the banks of the Hudson in 2009-10. The veteran mentor also enters the season just two wins shy of 375 in his soon-to-be 27-year career (373-365). Magarity has developed three All-Patriot League players, to include Enright and McGuire along with current junior F Erin Anthony, while also helping to groom the 2007-08 Patriot League Defensive Player of the Year Maragree King ’08. Magarity’s team has consistently been one of the top programs at West Point in the classroom as well. Anthony proved that fact when she became the first Army women’s basketball player in program history to garner the 2008-09 Scholar-Athlete of the Year award. Faced with an unthinkable challenge after the loss of Dixon, the Black Knights honored their late coach and ushered in the Magarity era with a stellar 26-4 record - the most wins in Army Division I history. Army posted an 11-3 mark in conference

play, further cementing the fact that the Academy made the right decision in Magarity’s hiring and the program was in more than capable hands. Seasons of 18-12 and 19-12 marks followed in 2007-08 and 2008-09, respectively, as Magarity continued to challenge his players with two of the most rigourous non-conference schedules in program history. Army faced top-25 teams in Connecticut, Rutgers and Ohio State over the span of two years in order to best prepare the team for Patriot League play in January. One of the most well-respected and recognizable faces in the basketball community, the honors and awards for Magarity are plentiful. Most recently, he was presented with the Anaconda Lifetime Achievement Award at the 2008 Men’s Basketball Final Four in San Antonio, Texas. In his first season at Army, the N.Y.-Metropolitan Basketball Writer’s Association named Magarity its Coach of the Year. Following the landmark 200506 campaign, the Army team was bestowed with the Jimmy “V Foundation” Comeback Award, AT&T National Sportsmanship Award and Patriot League Sportsmanship Award, further rooting Magarity’s influence on the program. A mainstay on the banks of the Hudson with 30-plus years of coaching experience, Magarity’s respect for West Point runs deep. “I have had many opportunities to bring men’s teams that I coached to West Point, and I have always held a strong feeling for the Academy as an outsider,” Magarity said. “To be given this opportunity is one of the most special gifts that I could receive as a coach. The commitment and dedication to excellence here is outstanding. I am honored to be a part of this great tradition.” Magarity arrived at West Point in October of 2005 following a brief stint as the Assistant Commissioner/Director of Men’s Basketball Operations for the Mid-American Conference (MAC). Magarity was responsible for basketball scheduling, working closely with the MAC coordinator of officials and served as a liaison between the league office and the 12-member institutions. Prior to joining the MAC, he held a similar position with the Metro Atlantic Athletic Conference (MAAC) based in Edison, N.J. “It was a tremendous honor and thrill for me to be named the head coach at West Point,” Magarity said. “Maggie Dixon and I, and the staff, started something very special. It’s an honor for me to embrace the opportunity, continue what we started and expand on that success for years to come. “The decision I made to stay here was probably one of the smartest decisions I have made in my life, professionally,” he continued. “To be at West Point with the support of the athletic administration and surrounded by some of the finest young cadetathletes in the country, is an opportunity I am
www.goARMYsports.com
excited and absolutely thrilled about as we move forward.” In 23 years as men’s head coach, including 18 just 31 miles north of West Point at nearby Marist College in Poughkeepsie, N.Y., Magarity tallied an overall record of 313-334 (.484), with 253 of those victories coming with the Red Foxes. During his coaching tenures at Marist and St. Francis University (Pa.), Magarity was honored as “Coach of the Year” in four different leagues. He was first named “Coach of the Year” at St. Francis in 1981, earning NABC Division I District III accolades, before garnering recognition at Marist during the 1986-87 season when he won ECAC Metro honors. He was honored again following the 1994-95 campaign, being dubbed the Northeast Conference “Coach of the Year,” and the following season was recognized by the NABC for the second time in his career. He would again earn NABC “Coach of the Year” honors following the 2000-01 and 2001-02 seasons. Magarity was selected the MAAC “Coach of the Year” in 2001-02 by the league’s coaches. He won CollegeInsider.com’s top coaching honor three times (2000, 2001, 2002) and the Sport Magazine New York Metropolitan Basketball Writers Association Award once in 1988. Under his direction from 1986 to 2004, the Red Foxes saw unparalleled success as he led his teams to an NCAA Tournament appearance in 1987 and to the National Invitational Tournament in 1996. Of the 18 Marist teams he coached, 15 of them reached double digits in wins and two eclipsed the 20-win plateau, including a 22-win performance during the 1995-96 season. His squads played in two conference tournament championship games and won the ECAC Metro Conference regular-season title in 1987-88. His coaching career began at St. Francis in 1973 as a graduate assistant and than as an assistant coach until taking over the reins of the program in 1978, becoming the youngest Division I head coach in the nation at the time (27). In his third campaign, Magarity led the Red Flashes to a 17-10 mark, the most wins in a season for St.
2009-10 WOMEN’S BASKETBALL MEDIA GUIDE Francis in a dozen years, and earned District III “Coach of the Year” honors as a result. Magarity began his Empire State coaching career as an assistant at Iona College under Pat Kennedy, currently the head coach at Towson University. While a member of the Gaels coaching staff, Magarity helped Iona to a pair of 20-win seasons and two NCAA Tournament appearances (1984, 1985). After three successful years at Iona, Magarity headed up the Hudson River to take over the program at Marist. In his first season at the helm of the Red Foxes in 1986-87, Magarity made a name for himself, leading that group to the institution’s first-ever 20-win season (20-10) and the team’s second consecutive berth in the NCAA Tournament. Magarity’s squad ranked 11th in the country in field goal percentage defense (.425) and scoring defense (.629). The Red Foxes won 14 of their last 15 games that season as Magarity took home ECAC Metro “Coach of the Year” honors. In his sophomore campaign, Magarity and the Red Foxes continued to impress as they finished 18-9 overall and earned a share of the ECAC Metro Conference regular-season crown with a 13-3 conference mark. Marist continued to show that defense was a key to Magarity’s coaching philosophy, ranking second in the nation in field goal percentage defense holding opponents to 40.1 percent shooting from the floor. Marist also showed that it could score, connecting on 45 percent of its three-point attempts to rank 13th nationally. The Metropolitan Basketball Writers Association honored Magarity by presenting him the second annual Mike Cohen “Good Guy” award. That June, Magarity saw Marist gain national prominence when Rik Smits was the second pick overall of the 1988 NBA Draft by the Indiana Pacers. Smits played 13 seasons in the NBA and was selected to the East squad for the NBA All-Star Game in 1998. He retired in 2000 ranked second in Pacers’ franchise history in points (11,125), rebounds (4,601) and blocked shots (959). Magarity led Marist to only its second 20-win season in 1995-96, compiling a schoolrecord 22 wins, and posted a school-record .759 winning percentage (22-7). The Red Foxes earned the program’s first bid to the NIT, and Magarity was recognized as the NABC District II “Coach of the Year.” Four players from that squad were named All-Northeast Conference. The Red Foxes and Magarity won a share of the MAAC regular-season title in 2001-02, the first since joining the league prior to the start of the 1997-98 campaign. Marist went 13-5 in MAAC action on its way to an overall 19-9 record. During his 18 seasons at Marist, Magarity coached a total of 11 Red Foxes who eclipsed the 1,000-point mark for their careers. But his tenure was marked by more than just playing success. Magarity coached two Academic All-Americans and graduated better than 95 percent of his players who completed their NCAA eligibility. Magarity left the coaching ranks following the 2003-04 season to serve as director of athletic development at Marist from April through September 2004 before accepting his position at the MAAC, where he stayed until moving over to the Mid-American Conference in June 2005. A 1974 graduate of St. Francis in Loretto, Pa., Magarity earned a bachelor’s degree in Business Management and Marketing. Magarity, who hails from Philadelphia, Pa., and his wife, Rita, have three children: Maureen (28), Katie (26) and David, Jr. (24). All three Magarity children are Marist graduates, while Maureen is in her first year serving as her father’s associate head coach and fourth overall on the Army women’s basketball staff.

associate HEAD D COACH maureen MAGARITY Fourth Season Post Players Marist ’03
Maureen Magarity started at West Point in 2006-07 as an assistant coach and was elevated to the title of associate head coach in August of 2009. Tagged as the team’s recruiting coordinator, Magarity also assists in all aspects of the program. Magarity’s main focus is placed on post player development. During her time at West Point, the Black Knights have managed a 61-30 mark. She has played an integral role in the development of current junior F Erin Anthony, a second team All-Patriot League pick a year ago. Anthony led the conference in rebounds and was second in blocks, while also becoming the first women’s basketball player from Army to be named the Patriot League Scholar-Athlete of the Year last March. Magarity is the eldest daughter of Dave Magarity, who is in his fifth season with the Black Knights’ program and fourth as its head coach. Prior to her start at West Point, Magarity completed a one-year stint at Fairfield University in Fairfield, Conn., where she was in charge of scouting, player development and community relations. The Stags forged an 11-18 mark and advanced to the quarterfinals of the Metro Atlantic Athletic Conference (MAAC) Tournament in 2005-06. Prior to her tenure at Fairfield, Magarity spent one year as an assistant at her alma mater, Marist College, where she helped the Red Foxes to a 22-7 overall record and a MAAC regular-season championship. She also organized the first women’s basketball alumni game in more than 15 years and was an assistant director of the Marist girls’ basketball camp. “To have the opportunity to work with one of your children is unbelievable,” Dave Magarity said. “Maureen has proven herself as a coach and has grown a lot over her last three years at West Point.” A 2003 graduate of Marist College, Maureen Magarity earned a bachelor’s degree in Communications and Public Relations. In May of 2005, she earned her master’s degree in Public Administration from Marist, continuing to play with one year of remaining eligibility in 2004. Before entering the coaching profession, Magarity served as team captain during her junior and senior seasons and helped the Red Foxes to their first NCAA Tournament appearance in 2004. She garnered two second team All-MAAC selections, and was a 2004 MAAC All-Tournament Team choice. Magarity earned two MAAC Scholar-Athlete awards (2002, 2004) and received the James Pizzani Award for dedication and loyalty as a senior. Before transferring to Marist, she played one season at Boston College. As a member of the Boston College women’s basketball team, the Eagles reached the semifinals of the preseason WNIT, and advanced to the second round of the NCAA Tournament in 2000. Magarity married Brendan Copes in the summer of 2009. The couple resides in New Windsor, N.Y.

First Season Guards Pepperdine ’04
First Season Guards Fairleigh Dickinson ’05
Shandrika Lee-Gerch, a former standout at Pepperdine University with four years of collegiate coaching experience at Cal Poly, joined Army’s women’s basketball staff in June 2009. Along with fellow newcomer Erin Mills, Gerch will coach the guards, while also assisting with community outreach and alumni relations. “We’re very excited about the addition of Shandrika to our staff,” Magarity said. “Not only does she bring tremendous expertise as an on-floor coach, but her experience and knowledge of the West Coast and the vast talent that it has to offer will be invaluable in our recruiting efforts.” Prior to her appointment at West Point, Lee-Gerch had spent the last four years as an assistant under longtime Cal Poly head coach Faith Mimnaugh. While in San Luis Obispo, Calif., she was responsible for developing the guards, which included two-time All-Big West first team selection Jessica Eggleston. Under Lee-Gerch’s watch, Tamara Wells and Ashlee Stewart were also named to the All-Big West freshman team. Lee-Gerch was a part of a staff that put together Cal Poly’s winningest season in 2008-09 (21-11). She also spearheaded many of the Mustang’s community outreach programs, fundraising events and served as the team’s liaison to the department’s academic services staff. She also served as director of Cal Poly’s women’s basketball camps and was the co-director of the Holiday Beach Classic from 2005-09. A 2004 graduate and standout at Pepperdine, Lee-Gerch led the Waves in points (13.4 ppg), assists (3.2 apg) and steals (1.4 spg) and earned All-West Coast first team honors as a senior in 2003-04. She led her team to a 1713 mark and a berth in the Women’s National Invitational Tournament. Lee’s junior season was cut short by an ACL injury just prior to Pepperdine’s WCC opener. She did, however, average 17.6 points, 2.5 assists and 2.5 steals per contest prior to her season-ending injury. Lee-Gerch, who paced Pepperdine in steals during three of her four seasons in Malibu, Calif., retired as the school’s all-time leader with 183. Pepperdine’s 14th-leading scorer behind 1,172 career points, Lee-Gerch also ranks second in program history with 173 three-pointers, third with an .813 free throw percentage and eighth with a .348 three-point percentage. Her .449 accuracy from behind the arc in 2002-03 remains a Pepperdine record. During Lee’s tenure, Pepperdine qualified for two NCAA Tournaments and made a pair of WNIT showings. Lee’s standout collegiate career earned her a tryout with the Los Angeles Sparks of the Women’s National Basketball Association following graduation. A two-time WCC All-Academic nominee, Lee graduated with a bachelor’s degree in sports medicine. She later earned her master’s degree in kinesiology with an emphasis in physical education and sport studies from Cal Poly in June 2008. Originally from Moreno Valley, Calif., Lee served as the junior varsity girls’ basketball coach and varsity assistant at Ramona High in Riverside, Calif., prior to her time at Cal Poly. Lee and her husband, Brett, who serves as Army football’s strength and conditioning coach, reside at West Point.
Added to the women’s basketball staff in mid-August, Erin Mills made her way to West Point after a successful playing career at nearby Fairleigh Dickinson and two assistant coaching stops on the collegiate level. Mills will coach the guards, while also focusing her efforts on scheduling, academics and compliance at West Point. A native of Wilmington, Del., Mills comes to West Point following a twoyear stint as the top assistant at Bloomfield College in Bloomfield, N.J. While at Bloomfield, Mills aided the Lady Deacons in a wealth of specific areas outside of mere player development. She cultivated recruiting efforts, served as scouting coordinator, oversaw film exchange, served as conditioning coordinator and the team’s academic liaison. In addition to holding down a collegiate coaching position, Mills worked as an assistant coach at Pascack Hills High School in Montvale, N.J., for the 2007-08 season. She was also a high school history teacher in the Pascack school system, along with serving as the head coach of the Pascack softball team. Prior to her time at Bloomfield, Mills was in a similar position at Mercyhurst College in Erie, Pa., for the 2006-07 season. In addition to those positions that she occupied at Bloomfield, Mills fulfilled the title of recruiting coordinator, NCAA compliance coordinator, orientation liaison for new student-athletes and home game coordinator. She also assisted with all aspects of team travel and handled the 2007 Laker Basketball Camp. Mills’ New Jersey roots run deep as she spent her undergraduate and graduate years at Fairleigh Dickinson in Teaneck, N.J.

STATEN ISLAND, N.Y. – Andrea Reed hit a running bank shot in the lane with 2.9 seconds remaining to lift Wagner to a dramatic 59-58 victory over Army, Friday afternoon at the Spiro Sports Center in the season opener for both squads. Reed proved too much for the Black Knights down the stretch as the 5-4 junior accounted for 18 of the Seahawks’ 30 second-half points en route to a career-best 22-point showing. Reed, who added four steals, scored 15 of Wagner’s final 18 points over the last 9:58 to lead the comeback win. Army (0-1) led 40-34 with 15:23 remaining, but the Seahawks struck for six consecutive points to tie the score at 40-40 with 11:51 to play. The Black Knights responded with a mini 5-1 run to quickly reclaim the lead at 45-41, but Reed took over from there. After sinking a free throw, Wagner’s high-scoring point guard nailed consecutive baskets, providing the Seahawks with their first lead since the midway point of the first half at 46-45. Army’s Alex McGuire hit a pair of free throws as the Black Knights forged back ahead 47-46, before Wagner forward John’a Poole hit one of two free throws to level the score at 47-47 with 7:06 left. The lead would exchange hands four times over the final four minutes before Reed drilled her game-winner in the lane for the final lead change of the night. The Black Knights had taken their last lead of the contest when senior Megan Evans scored inside with 10 seconds remaining. Wagner head coach Gela Mikalauskas then called timeout with eight seconds left and set up a clear-out play for Reed Buoyed by a 12-2 run midway through the opening stanza, Army enjoyed a 35-29 halftime advantage. The Black Knights sank 14 of 27 field goal attempts (51.9 percent), while Wagner remained close by hitting 50.0 percent of its field goal tries (13-26) over the opening 20 minutes. Sophomore Erin Anthony led four Army players in double figures with 14 points. She also pulled down five caroms and added three blocked shots. McGuire (11), Evans (10) and sophomore Laura Baranek (10) also reached double digits for the Black Knights, who committed 25 turnovers in the setback. Army returns to action on Sunday when it travels to Columbus, Ohio, to battle 18thranked Ohio State. Tipoff at Value City Arena is slated for 1 p.m. The Black Knights will host Maryland-Eastern Shore in their home opener on Nov. 19. Postgame Notes: Army defeated Wagner 59-50 on Jan. 9, 2008, at Christl Arena ... Wagner’s Andrea Reed, who hit on 9 of 13 field goal attempts on Friday, went just 3-for-10 from the field in that showing and finished with seven points ... Army held a 35-24 rebounding advantage on Friday, but committed nine more turnovers (25-16) than the Seahawks ...

COLUMBUS, Ohio – Sophomore C Jantel Lavender led all players with 28 points and 10 rebounds to pace No. 18 Ohio State in a 92-58 win over visiting Army on Sunday afternoon at Value City Arena. Four Army players finished in double-figures in the scoring column, led by sophomore F Erin Anthony’s 14 points. “This was a tough match-up for us no doubt about it,” said head coach Dave Magarity. “Looking down the road at teams like Rutgers and other tough opponents, this was a great test for our young team early in the season. I think this Ohio State team has the potential to be something really special this year. They were just too much for us inside.” Senior G Alex McGuire finished with 12 points, nine of which came in the second half. Sophomore G Nalini Hawkins and sophomore G/F Laura Baranek chipped in with 11 and 10 points, respectively. Senior F Megan Evans pulled down a team-high seven rebounds, as Ohio State won that battle by a 40-34 margin. The Black Knights closed the first half gaining some momentum, but a 20-5 Ohio State run to open the second half made the difference. Army dropped to 0-2 on the season, while the Buckeyes remained perfect at 2-0 to start the year. Army hit its first four attempts from behind the arc, including a pair from Baranek, to hang-in with the Buckeyes in the early going. The Black Knights wracked-up six fouls over the first eight minutes of play, as Ohio State pounded the ball inside to take advantage of a significant height differential. OSU’s Lavender totaled 24 first-half points to lead the Buckeyes around the basket. A three-pointer courtesy of McGuire made it a two-point game, 15-13, with just over 15 minutes to go in the first stanza. The Buckeyes countered with a 20-3 run to cruise ahead, 35-16, with 9:15 remaining in the first half. Army did not back down, however, holding OSU scoreless for a four-minute span (9:16-5:20) late in the first half. During that time, the Black Knights netted six unanswered points, including back-to-back buckets from senior G/F Courtney Wright on the break, followed by a jumper from Evans. The Black Knights continued to work on the offensive end and whittled the deficit to single-digits, 37-29, after Baranek sank a pair of free throws with 2:54 to play. Lavender responded to score the Buckeyes’ final eight points of the half, while Army’s Hawkins drained a three-pointer at the buzzer as the Black Knights headed into the locker room down 45-32 at the break. The Buckeyes came out of the intermission to score 20 of the first 25 points of the second half to stretch their lead to 65-37 with just over 13 minutes to play. OSU continued to pressure Army on both ends of the floor and went on to lead by as many as 37 points, 89-52, at the 3:52 mark. Army returns to action on Wednesday, Nov. 19, at 7 p.m. as the team hosts Maryland-Eastern Shore in its home-opener at Christl Arena. The Black Knights topped the Hawks 76-64 on the road in the only other meeting between the two clubs last season. Game Notes: Ohio State is the first of two teams that Army will face this season that were nationally ranked in both preseason polls ... the team will face No. 5/3 Rutgers in the first game of the Maggie Dixon Classic on Sunday, Dec. 14, at Madison Square Garden ... Army used the same starting lineup as in the opener consisting of F Evans, F Anthony, G Hawkins, G McGuire, G Baranek ... freshmen G/F Kait Goodall, G Erin Jankowski , F Lauren Lybbert, G Meagan Doucette and G Ashley Anthony all made their collegiate debuts against the Buckeyes ... F Anthony drained her first career three-point bucket with 3:20 remaining in the first ... sophomore G Jessie Coiffard logged a career-high 18 minutes ... classmate F Laura Burdick made her season debut ... 2,585 spectators took in the Sunday matinee.

WEST POINT, N.Y. – The Army women’s basketball team fended off a pesky Maryland-Eastern Shore club to notch its first win of the 2008-09 season, topping the Hawks by a 56-43 score in the Black Knights’ home-opener on Wednesday night at Christl Arena. Army led the majority of the game and went 7-of-7 from the free throw line, scoring 11 of the final 13 points of the game to UMES, as the team moved to 1-2 on the season. UMES fell to 0-2. Three Army players landed in double-figures in the scoring column, led by a careerhigh 13 points from sophomore G/F Laura Baranek. She also added a season-high eight rebounds, seven of which came in the first half. Sophomore G Nalini Hawkins and senior G Alex McGuire added 12 and 11 points, respectively. Sophomore F Erin Anthony led all players with nine rebounds to go with her eight points. Senior F Megan Evans hauled down six caroms as Army won the battle of the boards, 43-32. Army scored the first six points of the game, but UMES came back with the next eight unanswered to take an 8-6 lead with 14:21 remaining. F Megan Evan’s layup tied the game less than a minute later. Neither team scored over the next three-plus minutes before UMES’ April McBride ended the drought with a layin at the 9:48 mark to put the Hawks in front, 11-8. Evans’ layup (7:50) coming out of a media timeout ignited a 10-0 Army run, which was also helped by a 10-foot jumper from sophomore G Jessie Coiffard and a running layup from sophomore G Laura Baranek. Senior F Courtney Wright’s layup with 4:07 remaining in the half capped the spurt. UMES’s Jasmine Speed responded to end a 4:21 scoring drought for the Hawks, pulling them back within five, 18-13, at the 3:29 mark. Army scored the only other point of the first half, as sophomore G Nalini Hawkins, went 1-of-2 from the line to make it a 19-16 Army lead at intermission. Baranek scored the first five points of the second half, including a traditional threepoint play at the 16:38 mark to push the Black Knight lead to double-digits, 26-16. Back-to-back jumpers from Baranek and McGuire followed, as Army took a 30-17 lead with just under 15 minutes to play. The Hawks countered with a 11-2 run over the next 3:12 to trim the deficit to five, 3631. Acrobatic layups courtesy of Evans and McGuire surrounded a UMES turnover to push the Black Knights’ lead back to nine 40-31, with just under eight minutes to go. UMES cut it to four, 40-36, just over a minute later following four unanswered points for Casey Morton. UMES stayed on Army’s heels but the Black Knights never allowed the Hawks to establish a lead. UMES got to within four, 45-41, on a McBride free throw at the 3:53 mark, but the Black Knights closed the game riding an 11-2 run to walk away with the win. Army returns to action when the team hosts Loyola on Sunday, Nov. 23, at 12 p.m. Sunday marks the only men’s and women’s basketball doubleheader on the Christl Arena docket this season, as the men host Princeton at 2:30 p.m. Game Notes: Army went with the same five starters as in the previous two games – F Anthony, F Evans, G Baranek, G McGuire, G Hawkins ... Army debuted new home white uniforms with gold trim ... the Black Knights did not register a single threepoint basket in nine attempts ... Army is now 2-0 in its all-time series against UMES.

WEST POINT, N.Y. – A furious final two minutes of play was not enough for the Army women’s basketball team to overcome a strong second-half effort from Loyola, as the Greyhounds posted a 64-56 victory over the Black Knights at Christl Arena. Senior G Alex McGuire and sophomore G Nalini Hawkins led the Black Knights with 16 and 13 points, respectively, as both returning starters recorded a season-high in the scoring column. It was Hawkins’ jumper with 1:19 remaining in the game that helped an 8-0 Army run that erased a 12-point deficit and made it a four-point game. Sophomore G Jessie Coiffard was fouled as her off-balance three-pointer fell with 1:08 to play. She went on to convert the four-point play and pull the Black Knights within 60-56. From there, the Black Knights forced Loyola to win the game at the charity stripe, where the Greyhounds went 4-for-4 in the final 44 seconds to seal the win. Senior F Megan Evans led all players with a season-high 13 caroms. The Black Knights out-rebounded Loyola by a 37-35 margin. Senior G/F Courtney Wright added seven boards to go with her season-high six points and four steals.

A layup from Army G/F Courtney Wright layup made it a 13-12 game in favor of the Greyhounds. Loyola went on to score six of the next eight points to establish a 19-14 advantage with exactly seven minutes on the clock. Consecutive McGuire jumpers made it a one-point game, 19-18, with just over five minutes to play. Those buckets jumpstarted a 10-2 Army run during which the Black Knights took their first lead, 23-22, since the opening minutes. Evans’ layup through traffic capped the spurt. Loyola’s Kaitlin Grant nailed a pair of free throws with 2:46 on the clock, as the Greyhounds recaptured a 25-24 advantage. Neither team scored over the minutes of the half, as the 25-24 margin stood at halftime. The Greyhounds netted the first four points of the second half, but the Black Knights got right back to work as sophomore G/F Laura Baranek’s jumper, coupled with a McGuire three-point bucket, cut the deficit to two points, 31-29.

WEST POINT, N.Y. – Senior F Megan Evans matched a career-high 15 points but undefeated St. John’s was too much for Army in the second half in a 61-54 setback for the Black Knights in a Tuesday matinee at Carnesseca Arena. Sophomore G Nalini Hawkins, sophomore G/F Laura Baranek and senior G Alex McGuire added 10 points apiece in the effort, as Army fell to 1-4 on the season. St. John’s improved to 4-0. Army turned an 11-point deficit midway through the second half into a manageable six-point hole twice over the final two minutes of action. It was not enough, however, as the Black Knights fell for the fourth-straight contest. After leading by a 25-22 margin at intermission, St. John’s used a 13-6 spurt to start the second half that proved to be the difference. Evans accounted for four of the Black Knights’ first six points to start the second half. Consecutive three-point plays courtesy of McGuire (12:04) and Baranek (10:50) trimmed the deficit to six, 41-35. St. John’s Kelly McManmon responded with her fifth three-pointer of the game, which started a 9-4 surge that stretched the Red Storm lead to 50-39 with 7:23 to play. Army continued to ride on the Red Storm’s heels, but was never able to inch closer than six the rest of the way. A back-and-forth first half featured three ties and four lead changes. Army opened the game on-point, scoring seven of the first nine points to go up 7-2 just 3:29 into the action. Baranek drained a triple, while Hawkins found Anthony on the break for an easy layup to cap the Black Knights’ start. Army went on to build its lead to four, 11-7, on an Evans jumper (11:46). St. John’s, however, netted the next seven points unanswered to take its first lead since the opening minutes, 14-11, with 9:40 on the clock. The teams traded buckets over the next minute, as a pair of Evans free throws cut the deficit to one, 16-15, with just under nine minutes remaining in the half. Evans’ running layin coming out of a media timeout gave the Black Knights a 17-16 advantage, while a Baranek steal on the defensive end led to a Hawkins layup made it 19-16 in Army’s favor. McManmon’s back-to-back three-point baskets highlighted an 8-0 run that established a 25-19 Red Storm lead at the 3:38 mark. Senior G/F Courtney Wright’s layup with two minutes before intermission stopped St. John’s run and the Black Knights went on to hold the Red Storm scoreless over the final 3:38. St. John’s led by a 25-22 halftime margin. Army returns to action at service-academy rival Air Force on Saturday, Nov. 29, as the Black Knights spend the Thanksgiving holiday in Colorado Springs, Colo. Game Notes: The game was the first contest of a basketball tripleheader at Carnesecca Arena Tuesday, as the Red Storm hosted a pair of men’s NIT Season Tip-Off consolation games following the women’s opener … F Erin Anthony, F Megan Evans, G/F Laura Baranek, G Alex McGuire and G Nalini Hawkins made-up Army’s starting five for the fifth-straight game

USAFA, Colo. – The Army women’s basketball team rode a 17-2 run over the final four minutes en route to a 54-44 victory live on The Mtn. Saturday afternoon at Clune Arena. Sophomore F Erin Anthony scored seven of her 12 points over the final 3:56 to key the Black Knight in its second victory of the season over the service academy rival Falcons. Senior G Alex McGuire led all players with 16 points, while sophomore G/F Laura Baranek added 10 points. Sophomore G Nalini Hawkins added seven points, while senior F Megan Evans chipped in with six for the Black Knights, as Army improved to 2-4 on the season. Air Force dropped to 1-4. The Falcons owned a 37-29 advantage off the glass, but Army match Air Force’s 19 rebounds in the second half. Anthony paced the Black Knights with seven boards and senior G/F Courtney Wright finished with six. Both teams shot 35 percent from the floor, featuring a 17-of-48 effort from the Black Knights. Army out-scored the Falcons, 22-16, in points off turnovers as the team committed a season-low 12 miscues on the afternoon. Army took a 24-22 halftime lead and came out to score the first four points of the second half, as Baranek’s jumper and Anthony’s layin both fell in the first two minutes to extend the Black Knights’ lead to six, 28-22. The Falcons owned seven of the next 11 points, making it a one-point game yet again, 30-29, with 14 minutes to play. Neither team scored over the next three minutes before McGuire’s jumper ended the drought and stretched the lead to 3329 at the 11:13 mark. Coiffard then initiated a steal on the other end, which allowed Army to extend its lead to 35-29 – its largest lead to that point - on an Anthony layup with 9:46 remaining. The Falcons responded with an 8-2 run over the next 3:35 to establish their first lead, 37-35, since the 12:21 mark of the second half. A pair of McGuire free throws followed, tying the score at 37-37 with 5:49 to play. The Falcons scored the next five points to establish its largest lead of the game, 42-37 (4:23). McGuire found Anthony in the post just 27 seconds later, igniting a 12-0 Army turnaround over the next two minutes that re-established a 45-42 Black Knight lead with 2:06 on the clock. Anthony helped the cause with seven points, including five from the free throw line, while McGuire added five tallies during the critical surge. Army hung on to hit 7-of-8 from the free throw line over the final 1:13. Army opened the game hot from long range, as Hawkins (18:36) and McGuire (16:02) triples surrounded an Evans hook shot over the first five minutes of action, as Air Force took a 10-8 lead with 15:25 on the clock. The Black Knights went on to take a 13-12 advantage following a wide-open three-point bucket courtesy of sophomore G Jessie Coiffard and a 10-foot baseline jumper from Baranek. Both teams hit a bit of a scoring slump before McGuire’s three from the right baseline made it 16-14 with just under 10 minutes to play in the half. The teams went on to exchange baskets for the remainder of the half. The Black Knights took their largest lead of the half, 24-20, on a Hawkins putback at the three-minute mark. A pair of Falcon free throws made for a 24-22 Army lead at the break. Game Notes: The game was played at 2 p.m. local time … the teams combined for just eight first-half fouls (three Army, five Air Force) … the Black Knights held a halftime lead (24-22) for the third time this season … Army arrived on Wednesday and spent Thanksgiving with the family of freshman G/F Kait Goodall … a large contingent of Army fans made the trip, including the parents of freshman F Lauren Lybbert and senior G/F Courtney Wright, who made the out-of-state trek from Iowa and New Mexico, respectively … Army closed the gap in its all-time series against Air Force, which the Falcons still lead, 7-6.

Anthony and Evans led a group of four players in double-figures, as sophomore G Nalini Hawkins and senior G Alex McGuire came up with 14 and 11 points, respectively. Army shot a season-best 57 percent (30-of-53) from the field and scored the more points than it has all season. Army (3-4) also dominated Albany on the boards, 43-25.

PHILADELPHIA – Sophomore F Erin Anthony registered her first double-double of the season with a team-high 16 points and 10 rebounds to key the Army women’s basketball team in a 55-49 win at Drexel on Friday afternoon at the Daskalakis Athletic Center. The victory marked Army’s third straight as the team moved to 4-4 on the season. Drexel dropped to 3-4. Anthony missed just one of her eight shots from the floor, while also adding two free throws as she scored at least 16 points for the second game in a row. Six of Anthony’s 10 boards were on the offensive glass, helping Army out-rebound Drexel by a 41-20 margin. Sophomore G Nalini Hawkins’ four offensive rebounds brought her total to a six to match a season-best mark. “I thought we did a great job in the first half, but a lot of it was that we were just making some shots,” said head coach Dave Magarity. “Drexel did a terrific job getting at us early in the second half, so we were fortunate to hold them off. (Alex) McGuire really stepped up and again, we get a very good performance out of Erin Anthony for the third straight game.” Senior G Alex McGuire netted 10 points, while senior F Megan Evans and senior F Courtney Wright came away with eight apiece. Five of Wright’s season-high eight points came in the second half. The Black Knights shot 45 percent (22-of-49) from the floor, while the defense held Drexel to a 40 percent (19-of-47) mark. Drexel senior F Gabriela Marginean led all players with 25 points.
Army went on to score out-score the Great Danes by a 25-11 margin to close the half and take a 40-25 lead at the break. That decisive spurt included a 16-0 run from the 11:15 mark to 6:08 and featured seven points from McGuire and four apiece courtesy of Evans, Anthony and freshman G/F Kait Goodall.
The offense started slowly for both teams, but it was Army heating up to take a 7-2 advantage on a good free throw from senior F Courtney Wright at the 13:40 mark. Four straight-points from McGuire and an Anthony put-back extended the Black Knights’ lead to 19-8 with 10:18 on the clock.
While Army’s offense cooled off to start the second stanza, the Great Danes came out on a 14-2 spurt, trimming the deficit to single-digits, 42-39, following an Army three-point bucket at the 14:46 mark. Hawkins halted the Great Danes’ run with four-straight points over the next minute to get Army’s offense rolling again. Anthony followed with her second triple of the season (12:52), while a Hawkins fastbreak layup (12:22) ensued to stretch the Black Knights’ lead back to double-digits, 5140.
The Black Knights continued to click for the rest of the half, as a three-pointer from the top of the key for sophomore G Jessie Coiffard made it 30-16 with just over four minutes to play in the first stanza. Drexel trimmed the deficit to 32-22 with just under two minutes to play. A pair of Black Knight fouls in the final 18 seconds allowed the Dragons to make it 32-24 at the break.
The Black Knights continued to maintain its lead over the next several minutes, as back-to-back layups from senior G/F Courtney Wright made it 59-46 in favor of Army. A three-point basket from Albany’s Iromuanya made it an eight-point game, 59-51, with six minutes remaining in the contest. From there, the Black Knights embarked on a 6-0 run, including consecutive Anthony baskets to put the Black Knights’ in front, 67-51, with just over three minutes to play. Army allowed just one more Albany basket the rest of the night. Game Notes: Army out-scored Albany 42-24 in the paint … freshman G/F Kait Goodall scored her first career points Wednesday night via a layin with 5:49 to go in the first half … classmate G Erin Jankowski also logged minutes off the bench … Army’s 69points mark the best offensive output of the season to date … Black Jack, Army’s mule mascot, made an appearance at the game … Army’s 40 first-half points are the most the team has scored in the opening period all season … the Black Knights shot 61percent (17-of-28) from the field in the first half … Lt. Gen. Franklin L. Hagenbeck, Superintendent, Brig. Gen. Michael S. Linnington, Commandant of Cadets, and Brig. Gen. Patrick Finnegan, Dean of Academic Board, were all in attendance for the win … Hawkins, McGuire, Baranek and sophomore G Jessie Coiffard each tallied three assists.

The Dragons came out to score the first seven points of the second half to whittle the deficit down to one, 32-31, just 2:21 into the period. Meanwhile, turnovers and poor shooting plagued Army to start the second half. The team committed seven miscues in the first six minutes and did not score its first bucket until the 11:52 mark. Immediately after Drexel took its first lead since the opening minutes, 33-32, with 12:36 on the clock, Hawkins’ steal and ensuing traditional three-point play put Army back on top, 35-33 (11:52). Drexel took its largest lead of the game, 42-39, with 8:51 remaining. The Black Knights responded with a 10-0 spurt that featured four points each from Wright and Anthony to put Army back in front, 49-42, with 4:23 to play. The Dragons went on to score the next four straight points before Anthony halted the rally with a layup and free throw gave Army a 52-46 lead with two minutes to play. The Black Knights held off Drexel in the closing minutes to pick up the win. Game Notes: Drexel’s Gabriela Marginean entered the game averaging 27.5 points per game and ranked second in the country … Army led at halftime for the third straight game (32-24) … Drexel topped fellow Patriot League institution Bucknell, 44-35, on Nov. 25 of this year.

WEST POINT, N.Y. – The Army women’s basketball team trailed by as many as 12 points three minutes into the second half, but managed to mount a thrilling 62-60 comeback victory over Yale to extend its win streak to four games on Wednesday night at Christl Arena. Senior G Alex McGuire poured in a game-high 16 points, while senior F Megan Evans and sophomore F Erin Anthony posted 14 and 10 points, respectively. After a furious Army (5-4) rally, a pair of Anthony free throws with three minutes to go gave Army its largest lead of the half, 60-57. The teams went on to trade scoreless possessions over the next minute before Yale’s (3-5) Jamie Van Horne leveled the score at 60-60. With neither team putting points on the board, McGuire came up with a huge steal on Yale’s inbounds pass and took it to the rim, drawing a foul on Yale’s Mady Gobrect. McGuire made both clutch free throws with 55 seconds remaining and the Black Knights held on for the win. Yale held a 32-21 halftime lead, but the Black Knights’ 41-28 advantage in the second stanza keyed the victory. Thanks in large part to Evans and Anthony in the post, Army out-scored Yale by a 34-14 margin in the paint. The Black Knights’ offense shot 42 percent (21-of-50) from the floor, including a 50 percent (14-of-28) effort in the second half. Army’s defense forced Yale into 23 turnovers, 14 of which came via Black Knight takeaways. McGuire led Army with a season-high five steals, while Anthony registered a career-high five of the Black Knights’ six blocks on the night. Army started the second half staring at a 38-26 hole with 17:32 on the clock. Anthony proceeded to find Evans for a jumper that sparked an 8-0 Black Knight run. Baranek then went 1-of-2 from the free throw line to slice the deficit, 38-34, with 15 minutes to play. The teams went on to trade baskets over the ensuing eight minutes with neither finding great offensive production. A Hawkins layup on the break cut the Bulldogs’ lead to just one, 54-53, with just under seven minutes to go. A pair of Anthony free throws two minutes later at the 5:01 mark tied the game for the sixth time overall and first in the second half. The teams traded buckets throughout the first 10 minutes of the first half. Hawkins put Army on the board with a pair of free throws just a minute into the contest, while layups from McGuire, Anthony and Wright followed. Ennenga’s free throws at the 10:54 mark tied the game at 10-all. Yale went on to score 10 of the next 11 points to open up an 18-11 advantage with just over seven minutes to play in the first half. Anthony ended what had been a twominute Army scoring drought with a pair of free throws at the 6:49 mark. Three straight Evans hook shots in the final four minutes kept the deficit manageable for the Black Knights, who entered the break trailing 32-21. Next up on Army’s docket will be a tough task in No. 14/15 Rutgers in the first game of the third annual Maggie Dixon Classic on Sunday at Madison Square Garden. Army and Rutgers are set for a noon tip-off and will be followed by a showdown between perennial powerhouse No. 1/1 Connecticut and Penn State. Game Notes: Army’s four-game win streak is its longest of the season … senior F Megan Evans shot 7-of-8 for the night, while classmate Courtney Wright converted on all three of her attempts … Army was out-rebounded for just the third time this season … Anthony led Army with eight boards … she also went 6-of-6 from the charity stripe … McGuire has now scored in double figures in all nine games this year … Anthony extended her double-digit scoring streak to four games.

C Kia Vaughn and G Brittany Ray added 12 points apiece, while Ray added a game-high eight rebounds and three steals.

Rutgers continued to prevent Army from getting is offense going, establishing a 12-2 lead just under seven minutes into the contest. McGuire’s pair of free throws (9:13) and three-pointer at the 7:29 mark capped a quick 7-3 Army run and made it a 17-10 game. Rutgers answered, however, with a Prince three-pointer with 7:53 to go. Army reenergized and netted eight points in the final two minutes, including a pair of McGuire triples, to enter the break trailing by a 33-21 margin. Neither team scored for the first three-plus minutes of the second half. Prince got Rutgers moving with a triple from the left baseline and a Ray free throw seconds later allowed the Scarlet Knights to take their largest lead of the game, 37-21, with 16 minutes to play. Army, meanwhile, endured over a six-minute drought to start the second half.

RIVERDALE, N.Y. – The Army women’s basketball team led by as many as 17 points midway through the second half and the Black Knights were able to hold off a furious Manhattan comeback on their way to a 51-47 win on Tuesday afternoon at Draddy Gymnasium. Sophomore F Erin Anthony posted her second double-double (12 points, 10 rebounds) of the season and sixth of her career to lead Army.
WEST POINT, N.Y. – Playing for the first time in nearly a week, the Army women’s basketball team showed no signs of rust in running away with a 66-33 victory over Presbyterian on Saturday afternoon at Christl Arena. Sophomore G/F Laura Baranek poured in a career-high 18 points to lead all players, while classmate Nalini Hawkins added a season-best 16 points to go with four assists.
With the clock winding down and the Jaspers in the midst of a huge rally, senior G Alex McGuire sank a pair of free throws with 11.5 seconds remaining, but the Jaspers hurried down the court for a Nicole Harrison layup with 4.2 seconds left, leaving the door open as Army held a 49-47 lead. McGuire took the inbounds pass and found sophomore G/F Laura Baranek on the run for an easy layup to seal the deal the deal for the Black Knights, 51-47.
The win marked the Black Knights’ fifth in the last six games, as the team improved to 6-5 on the year. Presbyterian lost its fifth-straight and dropped to 2-8.
McGurie and Baranek chipped in with nine points apiece, while senior F Courtney Wright and sophomore G Nalini Hawkins added eight points each. Wright and senior F Megan Evans also helped a staunch defensive effort with seven boards each, as the Black Knights won the battle of the boards by a 42-39 margin.
Sophomore F Erin Anthony just missed her second double-double of the year with a season-best 11 rebounds to go with her eight points and a career-high five assists. Fourteen of Baranek’s 18 points came over the final 20 minutes of play, keying Army to a huge second half that led to the team’s fifth win in the last six games. On a bitter cold day outside, both teams struggled to get things warmed-up on the offensive end. Army held a 4-3 lead at the first media timeout (15:27). Consecutive Amanda Mills three-point buckets gave the Blue Hose a 9-8 advantage two minutes later. Hawkins found a wide open senior F Megan Evans for a layin with 11:23 to play, which in turn started a decisive 11-0 run over the next 3:32. Sophomore G Jessie Coiffard’s three from the left wing and a nice second effort on an Anthony layin highlighted the stretch. With just under eight minutes to play, Hawkins intercepted a pass and went coast-to-coast to cap the surge on an easy layup, giving the Black Knights its first double-digit lead of the game, 19-9. Army scored on each of its next three possessions, as Anthony (5:54), Baranek (5:31) and freshman G/F Kait Goodall (4:17) all found the hoop and ballooned the Black Knights’ lead to 25-9 with just under four minutes to go. While Army’s offense was finding its rhythm, the defense held Presbyterian scoreless for more than 10 minutes (13:26-3:37). The Blue Hose netted seven of the next 10 points to slice the deficit to 28-16 with 26 seconds remaining when Magarity called for a timeout to set up a final play. The Black Knights were unable to covert, leaving the Black Knights in front at the break. Baranek opened the second half with back-to-back triples in the first two minutes of play, igniting a pile of Black Knight points that would put the game out of Presbyterian’s reach early. Army scored 19 of the first 21 points of the second stanza to establish a 47-18 cushion with 13 minutes on the clock. The Black Knights went on to lead by as many as 36 points, 59-23, on a Goodall jumper with 8:26 remaining.

Jim Flowers, entertained the crowd with a rousing rendition of the national anthem … Santa made a surprise appearance at halftime, greeting children in attendance … after Presbyterian’s last lead (9-8) with 11:23 remaining in the first half, Army out-scored the Blue Hose by a 41-12 margin spanning 19:22 between the first and second halves … Presbyterian head coach Ronny Fisher picked up a technical foul with 10:41 remaining in the game … Erin Anthony dished out a career-best five assists along with her seasonbest 11 rebounds … Laura Baranek was held to just four points in the first half and finished with 18 points – the most points by an Army player this season … Kait Goodall also registered a career-high seven points … Army became the fifth team to hold Presbyterian to under 40 points … freshman G Erin Jankowski drained her first collegiate basket at the three-minute mark of the second half … freshman F Lauren Lybbert also netted her first career bucket with 2:23 left in the game … freshman G Meagan Doucette added a block … sophomore G Phaneslyn Williams made her first appearance of the year with under two minutes to go … freshman G Ashley Anthony also worked her way into the game as well … nine different players scored for the Black Knights.

Manhattan’s Michelle Pacheco proceeded to bury six unanswered points, including four from the free throw line, to slice the deficit to 38-26 with 9:30 to play. Hawkins responded with a 10-foot jumper on the Black Knights’ next possession (8:46), while McGuire added a wide-open triple just seconds later to push Army’s lead to 17, 43-26, with 8:21 remaining. While the Army offense cooled off, the Jaspers continued to chip away at what had been a healthy Army lead, using a 17-4 run spanning just under six minutes to trim the deficit to four and force Army head coach Dave Magarity to call a timeout. Consecutive Jasper triples made it 47-43 in favor of Army with just over two minutes left to work with. Manhattan head coach Myndi Hill called for a timeout to draw up a play with 1:24 on the clock, but an Evans steal in the paint foiled the key scoring opportunity coming out of the breather. However, following another Jasper timeout, Herrington’s layup made it 47-45 with 38 ticks remaining. McGuire’s free throws and Baranek’s layin ensued to secure the victory. Army struggled to get its offense rolling after a nine-day layoff for the holidays, but its defense worked overtime in holding Manhattan to just four field goals (4-of-27) over the first 20 minutes of play. Army amassed five blocks four steals and forced 11 Jasper turnovers in the first half. The Black Knights’ first score of the afternoon came on an Anthony free throw at the 15:22 mark to make it 3-1 in favor of Manhattan. In the meantime, Army’s rebounding corps did a solid job of limiting the Jaspers to just one shot on the defensive end. Army out-rebounded Manhattan by a 27-20 margin in the first half. Baranek’s running one-hander on the Black Knights’ next possession, jumpstarting a 10-0 Army run over the next 7:27. Anthony’s layup with 8:30 to play in the half capped the decisive spurt. Following an eight-minute drought for the Jaspers, Alyssa Herrington’s triple from the left wing marked Manhattans second bucket of the game and made it 10-6 with 10:31 on the clock. After five-straight Manhattan points, the Black Knights responded with 10 unanswered scores, which extended their lead to 22-8 with 4:35 on the clock. Senior F Courtney Wright and sophomore F Erin Anthony each registered back-toback buckets in the paint to key the stretch. Thanks to four straight free throws from Hawkins, Army took a 24-11 lead into the half. Two of those four tallies occurred with 2.2 seconds on the clock as Army dialed-up a long inbounds play, allowing Hawkins to draw a foul in the waning seconds of play. Game Notes: Head coach Dave Magarity returned to his MAAC roots when he visited familiar Draddy Gymnasium Tuesday … Magarity spent 18 seasons as the head men’s basketball coach at fellow MAAC institution Marist before coming to Army … the game was delayed by an hour and a half due to referees not being clear of the original 2 p.m. tip-off time … the first five minutes of play used just two referees before being joined in-progress by the third official … Laura Baranek’s first-half minutes were limited due to picking up her first two fouls just five seconds apart (12:26, 12:21) … freshman G Erin Jankowski earned minutes for the third game in a row … Army held Manhattan leading scorer C Kelly Regan scoreless in the first half … Courtney Wright’s eight points tied a season-high.

HAMILTON, N.Y. – Senior G Alex McGuire tied a season-best 21 points and sophomore F Erin Anthony schored her fourth-straight double-double (12 points, 16 rebounds) to pace Army in a 63-51 win over Colgate in the Patriot League opener for both teams on Saturday afternoon at Cotterell Court. The victory extended Army’s win streak to five games and improved the team to 10-5 overall and 1-0 in conference play. McGuire led all players in scoring, while Anthony’s 16 boards matched a career high for the Allentown, Pa., native. Despite Anthony’s efforts, the Raiders managed to out-rebound Army by a 36-32 margin.
The win marked Army’s third straight and seventh in the last eight games, while improving the team’s record to 8-5 on the year. Brown fell to 1-11.
From there, the Black Knights did not score a field goal over the final 10 minutes, allowing FDU to cut the lead to single digits in the waning minutes. Six consecutive points from FDU’s Mariyah Laury whittled the deficit down to seven, 53-46, with two minutes to go. Hawkins went 3-for-4 from the free throw line over the final minute to seal the win.

Senior G Alex McGuire and sophomore G/F Laura Baranek chipped in with eight points apiece, while McGuire added four points and a team-high four assists as well. Senior F Megan Evans and sophomore G Jessie Coiffard hauled down a seven boards apiece, as Army out-rebounded the Knights by a 42-25 margin.
Army scored 19 of the first 24 points of the second half, stretching what had been a 25-23 halftime lead into a 44-28 advantage seven minutes into the final stanza. McGuire opened the half with a three-pointer (19:21), while Baranek capped the stretch with second three of the game from the right wing with 13:04 remaining.
The Black Knights’ defense held Brown to 30 percent (16-of-54) shooting for the afternoon. Army also forced 18 Brown turnovers and came up with a season-high eight blocks. Anthony accounted for four of those blocks, all coming in the first half. Brown freshman Aileen Daniels paced the Bears with 10 points off the bench.
The Black Knights shot 39 percent (20-of-52) from the floor, while holding FDU to a 30 percent (14-of-47) mark. Army also out-scored the Knights, 24-10, in the paint.
Back-to-back three-pointers (10:13, 9:37) courtesy of sophomore G Jessie Coiffard and four-straight Evans points gave the Black Knights a 56-36 advantage with 8:10 remaining in the contest. Army went on to lead by 20 again just over a minute later, while the team used the clock to its advantage in order to seal its ninth win in the last 10 games.
Army scored the first six points of the game, which included four via the free throw line, while the Black Knight man defense held Brown scoreless over the first three minutes of play. The Bears responded with back-to-back buckets to pull within two, 6-4, with 16:32 remaining. Army came out of the under-16:00 media timeout to out-score Brown by a 13-5 margin, which pushed the Black Knights’ lead to 19-9 with 9:36 to play in the first half.

ARMY 63, COLGATE 51 Jan. 10, 2009 Hamilton, N.Y. (Cotterell Court)
Army scored the first seven points of the contest, a spurt that included long jumpers from both Anthony and Evans, in the first 1:11 of the game. The Knights responded with the next six points unanswered, but Baranek’s putback stopped the surge and kept Army ahead, 9-6, with 15:45 to play in the half. Back-to-back three-point buckets courtesy of Baranek and McGuire two minutes later ignited an 12-3 Army run over the course of 4:50 that kept the Black Knights in front by a 21-11 score with 8:26 on the clock. The Knights countered by scoring eight of the next 10 points to pull within four, 23-19, with just under six minutes to go. After FDU’s Alyssa Mayrose’s three sliced the deficit to six, 28-22, Army finished the half riding a 6-1 run to enter the locker room with a 34-23 advantage. Anthony, Evans and senior F Courtney Wright all scored in the final two minutes to build the 11-point edge.
Baranek opened the second half with her second three of the game, while the Black Knights ran off an 11-2 run over the first six minutes of play. Brown responded with a modest 5-2 spurt as the scoreboard read 49-21 with 12 minutes to go.
Hawkins drilled three fo the teams’ first four field goals of the second half, keying Army to a decisive 12-0 run to open the second stanza. An Anthony hook shot with 12:45 on the clock put the Black Knights ahead 46-28. An FDU triple ensued before Army’s offense continued its barrage with another Anthony layup followed by a Hawkins jumper, stretching the Army run to 16-3 and giving the Black Knights their largest lead to that point, 50-28, with 11:26 remaining.
The Black Knights went on to lead by as many as 31 on a McGuire three-pointer with 13:28 to play in the game. Meanwhile, a swarming defense never allowed Brown back to within less than 19, which came with Army’s bench cleared and in the final minute of the contest.
The teams traded buckets two buckets over the next four minutes, as both offenses cooled off. With 6:30 on the clock and Army leading by a 52-33 margin, the Knights embarked on a 16-1 run over the next 4:33 to trim the deficit to single digits, 53-46, with just under two minutes to play.
Game Notes: Army topped Brown by a 63-50 score last year at West Point … F Erin Anthony amassed four of the team’s seven blocks over the first 20 minutes of play … the team’s seven swats matched its season high in the first half alone … for the second-straight game, Army held its opponent to 15 points or less in the first half after holding Manhattan to 11 points in a 51-47 win last Tuesday … Army has now won three-straight times against Brown, while the Bears hold a 5-3 lead in the all-time series … all 14 players that dressed saw time … officials whistled 12 jumps balls on the afternoon … freshman G Meaghan Doucette scored her first collegiate point on a free throw with under a minute to play … rookie F Lauren Lybbert netted a career-high three points on the night … McGuire’s 21 points were just one shy of tying a career-high.

Game Notes: Army has not lost on the road since Nov. 25 at St. John’s (61-54) … Army beat Colgate for a sixth time in a row on Saturday, extending its all-time series lead to 26-18 … Nalini Hawkins’ three-point attempt with 10:54 to play hung up above the rim, which caused Colgate’s facility crew to retrieve it in order for play to resume … five of the Black Knights’ first eight field goals of the second half came from behind the arc, including two apiece from Laura Baranek and Jessie Coiffard … Megan Evans fouled out of the contest with 2:27 to play … Army has won its last five-straight Patriot League openers and all five wins have come against Colgate … nine of Erin Anthony’s 16 boards were off the offensive glass.

WORCESTER, Mass. – Shooting woes haunted the Army women’s basketball team all night long and the result was a 57-41 Patriot League loss at Holy Cross on Saturday night. Army dropped its first road game in over a month and saw its fivegame win streak come to an end at the Hart Center. Army moved to 10-6 on the season and 1-1 in Patriot League play, while Holy Cross won its fifth-straight to improve to 7-10 overall and 2-0 in conference action. Sophomore F Erin Anthony narrowly missed her fifth double-double in a row with a team-high 12 points and nine rebounds. Classmate G Nalini Hawkins scored all eight of her points in the second half, while she also added four rebounds and two steals. Senior G Alex McGuire was held to single-digits for just the fourth time this season (five points), but she managed to corral a season-high seven rebounds on the night. The Black Knights shot just 20 percent (13-of-65) for the game, their poorest shooting game of the year. Holy Cross shot at a 46 percent (21-of-46) clip and was led by Briana McFadden (13 points), Kathy Gruzynski (12) and Bethany O’Dell (11). Army made a late push in the second half, trimming the deficit to nine (44-35), but the Crusaders out-scored the Black Knights by a 13-6 margin to close the game and seal their first victory over Army since 2004-05. Senior F Megan Evans sank a pair of free throws just over a minute into the action, but Army did not register its first field goal until Anthony’s putback with 15:42 on the clock. Meanwhile, Holy Cross held a slim 7-4 lead at the first media timeout (14:44). The Crusaders went on to net six more points unanswered to build a 13-4 advantage with just under 12 minutes to go in the first half. Army endured a nearly a 10 minute drought without a field goal before senior G Megan Ennenga found Anthony underneath for a layup with six minutes to play. Holy Cross, however, still maintained a comfortable 18-6 lead. Anthony accounted for eight of the team’s 12 first-half points, as the Crusaders held a 27-12 advantage at the break. Hawkins scored six of the Black Knights’ first eight points coming out of intermission. Army later trimmed the deficit to 34-20 following Hawkins’ steal of Holy Cross’ inbounds play and subsequent uncontested layup with 16:10 remaining. Holy Cross kept Army at bay, however, as McFadden’s free throws with 14:39 left to play pushed the Crusaders’ lead to 19 (39-20) and marked Holy Cross’ largest advantage of the game. Four unanswered points from Ennenga made it 41-29 in favor of the Crusaders at the 9:11 mark. Holy Cross answered, however, with an old fashion three-point play and the Black Knights turned the ball over on their next possession, allowing the Crusaders to push ahead again. After Holy Cross pushed it back to a 15-point lead (44-29), Army rattled off six straight points unanswered whittled the deficit to just nine points (44-35) with 5:34 to play in the game. With the Crusaders stealing valuable minutes off the clock, they also responded with six of the next nine points to establish a 51-38 lead with just over two minutes to play and hold on for the win. Game Notes: Holy Cross’ win snapped a seven-game losing streak against the Black Knights, dating back to 2004-05 … the game pitted two of the winningest coaches in Patriot League history against one another in Army’s Dave Magarity and Holy Cross’ Bill Gibbons … both coaches have more than 350 career wins … Army’s 12 first-half points were the fewest points the team has scored in either half all season … Holy Cross’ Briana McFadden scored her 1,000th point at the start of the second half … she joins Army’s Alex McGuire as the only active player in the Patriot League to surpass 1,000 career points … senior F Courtney Wright started the second half in place of sophomore G/F Laura Baranek … Army held reigning Patriot League Player of the Week Bethany O’Dell scoreless in the first half, but she finished with 11 points on the night.

WEST POINT, N.Y. – Army dashed Lehigh’s hopes for an undefeated Patriot League season with a thrilling 54-52 win over the Mountain Hawks on Sunday afternoon at Christl Arena. Senior G Alex McGuire poured in a career-high 24 points and senior F Megan Evans netted the game-winner with two seconds on the clock to score the Black Knights its second Patriot League win of the year. The Mountain Hawks led much of the second half until Army put together a textbook finish. Lehigh’s Tricia Smith drilled a three-point basket with exactly one minute to play, stretching the Mountain Hawks’ lead to five (52-47). Coming out of an Army timeout, McGuire found sophomore F Erin Anthony wide open under the basket for an easy layup to make it a one-possession contest (52-49) at the 36-second marker. Army’s full-court pressure then put Lehigh’s Kristen Dalton on the line to shoot a one-and-one. She missed the front end, giving Army 25 seconds to work with. McGuire corralled the rebound and dribbled down into the right corner of the court. With no hesitation, she pulled up for three and drilled her fourth triple of the game to knot the score at 52-all with 19 seconds remaining. Alex Ross’ three-point attempt rimmed out for the Mountain Hawks with nine seconds to go, giving Army a chance to play for the win. Sophomore G/F Laura Baranek dribbled up the court and drew the Lehigh defense out, leaving Evans open underneath for the game-winning layup with two seconds to go. Lehigh did not get a shot off as Army hung on for the victory. Army found itself down by as many as 11 points (37-26) less than three minutes into the second half but continued to slowly chip away at the deficit. The Black Knights then used an 18-8 run to re-gain a 44-43 lead with seven minutes to go. The Mountain Hawks surged ahead again, leaving Army to play from behind yet again. Twelve of McGuire’s 22 points came in the second half to spur Army’s comeback. She shot 10-of-15 including 4-of-5 from behind the arc to lead Army. Evans added 11 points to go with a game-high eight rebounds in one of her best outings of the season. Evans, Anthony and senior F Courtney Wright teamed-up to limit Lehigh’s starting front line of Courtney Dentler and Haly Crites to just four and three points, respectively. Erica Prosser led the Mountain Hawks with 22 points and tied a teambest six boards. Army improved to 11-6 overall and 2-1 in Patriot League action, while Lehigh dropped to 13-5 and also 2-1 in conference play. Turnovers plagued both teams out of the gate, as they combined for seven turnovers over the first three minutes of action. Prosser went on to drill a layup in transition to give the Mountain Hawks a 4-3 advantage with 17:02 on the clock. Baranek’s baseline three and Anthony’s jumper on the team’s next possession got Army’s offense rolling and gave the team a short-lived 8-6 edge with 13 minutes to play in the half. Lehigh scored 11 of the next 13 points and took its largest lead to that point, 17-10, with 8:26 on the clock. Magarity took a timeout at that point in an effort to stall the Mountain Hawks’ run. Sophomore G Jessie Coiffard’s jumper (7:56) did just that, as Army rattled off sixstraight points to pull back within one (17-16) just 1:22 later. McGuire scored Army’s next seven-straight points to tie the game for the sixth time of the afternoon, 24-24, with under a minute to play in the half. Lehigh scored the final four points of the half, including a controversial shot at the buzzer that referees ruled was in time, to enter the locker room with a 28-24 advantage. Army picked up two quick fouls over the first 30 seconds of the second frame, while Lehigh accounted for the first three tallies to extend its lead to seven (31-24). Evans’ hook shot put Army on the board with 18:34 on the clock, but Lehigh answered with a speedy 6-0 run over the next 38 seconds to take its largest lead of the game, 37-26. McGuire stopped the bleeding with a fastbreak layup (17:06), and she went on to score nine points during a key 18-6 Army run that gave the Black Knights its first lead (44-43) since the 13-minute mark of the first half. Evans also helped the cause with back-to-back layups, while Coiffard added her first three of the contest. McGuire capped the stretch with a tough layup through traffic with 7:32 remaining in the game.

WEST POINT, N.Y. – American used a 12-2 run midway through the second half to score a 53-42 road win at Army in Patriot League women’s basketball action on Wednesday night at Christl Arena. Senior G Alex McGuire led the Black Knights for the second straight game with 15 points, while senior F Megan Evans and sophomore F Erin Anthony added eight points and eight rebounds apiece. The Black Knights moved to 11-7 on the year and 2-2 in the Patriot League. American improved to 13-6 overall and 3-1 in conference action. An Alex McGuire three-pointer with 13 minutes to play in the game gave Army its final lead of the night (31-30), as American out-scored the Black Knights by a 23-14 margin to close the contest and notch its third-straight conference win. Sophomore F Michelle Kirk led the Eagles with a 20-point effort, while senior G Talicia Jackson chipped in 15 points go with a team-high seven rebounds on the night. Sophomore F Liz Leer added 14 points and five rebounds. American utilized full court pressure from the start, but Army was able to break it and put the ball in the bucket. The teams traded baskets over the initial five minutes of the contest. The Eagles held a 10-7 advantage with 14:53 on the clock. Coming out of a media timeout, American used a 7-2 run to push its lead to eight (17-9) on a jumper from Michelle Kirk at the 9:08 mark. Magarity burned his first timeout of the game at that point, which resulted in four unanswered points to pull back within four (17-13) on a McGuire jumper with 7:35 remaining. McGuire netted Army’s lone basket over the next four-plus minutes, as American owned 10 of the next 13 points to take its largest lead of the half, 27-16, with just over two minutes to go in the half. Army closed the half with a quick 4-0 run courtesy of a pair of Evans free throws and a Hawkins jumper with four seconds to go, closing the gap to 27-20 at the break. Army scored the first four points of the second half, as Evans and McGuire both got inside for a layin which jumpstarted an 11-3 Black Knight run over the first 6:31 of the second frame. McGuire’s triple from the left wing capped the spurt and gave Army its first lead since the early minutes of the first half, 31-30. Kirk ended the run with back-to-back baskets to quickly put the Eagles back in front, 34-31, with 11:24 remaining. McGuire sank her second three-pointer of the game less than a minute later to tie the score for the first time of the evening, 34-34, with 10:29 on the scoreboard. Talicia Jackson punished Army over the next two minutes, as she keyed a decisive 12-2 American run that put the Eagles in the driver’s seat, 46-36, with seven minutes to go. Jackson netted a pair of three-pointers and added a layup to highlight the stretch. With Army in the midst of longer than a six-minute drought, American continued to corral offensive boards and use the clock to its advantage. Despite hitting a more than a four-minute scoring lull of its own, the Eagles still managed to maintain a double-digit lead with time running down. Baranek halted the Black Knights’ dry spell with a jumper at the 2:19 mark as the Black Knights mounted a comeback effort in the waning minutes. Army scored six of the next seven points to slice the deficit to seven (49-42) with one minute to play. American went on to make all four of its free throws down the stretch to seal the win.
Over the next four minutes, Lehigh scored five unanswered, including a good threepointer from Ross that allotted the Mountain Hawks a four-point cushion (48-44) with just under four minutes to play. McGuire answered with a critical triple of her own with the shot clock winding down (3:32) to keep the game within reach, 4847. The Black Knights went on to out-score Lehigh by a 7-4 margin to come away with the win.
All eight Patriot League teams were in action on Wednesday night and when it all shook out Army found itself in a three-way tie for fourth with Navy (9-10, 2-2) and Lafayetet (8-11, 2-2). American, Holy Cross (8-11, 3-1) and Lehigh (14-5, 3-1) sit in a tie atop the standings after tonight’s contests.
Game Notes: Senior G Alex McGuire’s three-pointer late in the game moved her into sixth place on Army’s all-time scoring list, passing Julie DelGiorno (West Point ’86) with 1,275 career points … McGuire recorded her third 20-plus-point effort in the last six games … Lehigh entered the contest riding a three-game win streak against the Black Knights … Parkland High School graduates Erin Anthony, Laura Baranek and Melissa Rich (Lehigh) found themselves on the same court once again on Saturday … the trio led Parkland to a 2006 Pennsylvania state title.
Game Notes: Erin Anthony and Laura Baranek reunited with their former high school teammate, American’s Ashley Yencho, on Wednesday night … the trio attended Parkland High School in the Lehigh Valley and won a state title in 2006 … Megan Evans tied a career-high three blocks on her 22nd birthday Wednesday night … the loss was only Army’s second home setback of the season … other final scores from around the league included Lehigh over Colgate (61-43), Lafayette over Bucknell (75-58) and Navy over Holy Cross (59-50).

WEST POINT, N.Y. – As expected when Army and Navy took the floor Saturday afternoon’s contest, it was a battle. In a game that entertained four ties and 11 lead changes, it was the Mids pulling out a 44-39 victory in Patriot League women’s basketball action at Christl Arena. Senior F Megan Evans’ 10 points led the Black Knights in the scoring column, while the Canaan, N.H., native finished with seven rebounds in a solid effort inside. Sophomore G Nalini Hawkins hauled down a career-high nine rebounds, but it was not enough as Navy won the battle of the boards by a 45-35 margin. Both teams shot under 30 percent for the game. Navy earned 16 trips to the free throw line and converted 12 of those shots, while the Black Knights did not make a trip to the stripe until 5:32 left in the game. Army finished 6-for-8 at the line, including a 4-for-4 effort from senior G Alex McGuire. Army’s leading scorer finished with nine points, all coming in the second half. McGuire’s free throw with 5:32 remaining gave Army its final lead of the afternoon (35-34), as Navy close the game riding a 10-4 run. It was a game of runs from the first whistle of the day. Army converted on three of its first five shots of the game, as a sophomore G/F Laura Baranek threepointer gave Army a 7-6 edge just four minutes in. After a bit of a lull, the Black Knights got good looks inside on back-to-back possessions to maintain a 11-10 edge with just over 12 minutes to play in the half. McGuire fed Evans (12:36) and Hawkins found a wide-open Wright (12:10) to spark the mini-run. The Mids, however, went on a 14-4 surge over the next 10 minutes to establish a 24-15 edge with 1:35 to go in the half. Freshman G/F Kait Goodall’s jumper (1:17) halted the surge, but Navy managed to enter the locker room holding a 24-17 lead. Army’s defense held Navy scoreless over the final 3:32 of the first half and carried the stellar effort poured into the first seven minutes of the second stanza. Meanwhile, the Black Knights scored the first eight points of the half, courtesy of its front line. Evans opened the second half with consecutive layups in the first minute of play, which sliced Army’s deficit to three (24-21) 57 seconds in. Anthony caught back-toback long passes and converted on a pair of easy layups, the final with 15 minutes to play gave Army its first lead, 25-24, since the 12-minute mark of the first half. Navy scored its first points of the second on a pair of Consedine free throws and went on to net the next six tallies unanswered. Consedine followed with the team’s first field goal of the half at the 12:42 mark, which put the Mids back in front (2825), while the Mids stretched it to a five-point lead (30-25) on an Angela Myers layup (10:50). McGuire and sophomore F Erin Anthony drilled back-to-back three-point buckets to key a 10-2 Army run that put the Black Knights back on top by a 35-34 score with 5:32 on the clock. The lead was short-lived however, as Navy’s Whitney Davidson scored the next five-straight points to give the Mids a 39-35 lead with just under four minutes to play. Neither team scored over the ensuing minute-plus. Baranek ended the drought by hitting the front end of a 1-and-1 opportunity to make it a three-point game (39-36) with 1:43 remaining. Navy failed to score on its next possession, while Anthony drew Consedine into a foul and went on to hit 1-of-2 from the line, making it a 39-37 Navy lead with 1:13 to play. Army fouled Navy on its next two possessions and the Mids went 2-of-4 from the line during that critical stretch that pushed their lead to four (41-37) with 32 seconds remaining. McGuire’s three-point attempt from the right baseline with 23 seconds rimmed out, but she shared her own rebound and managed to find herself at the free throw line for a pair with 17 seconds on the clock. The Gambrills, Md., native converted both free throws to keep Army’s hopes alive, 41-39. Applying full-court pressure, Army quickly fouled Consedine. Following her first make, Magarity called for a timeout, but Consedine converted her second attempt as well. Army did not get a good look on its next possession, and Kropa went on to seal the Mids win by hitting one of her two free throws with four seconds on the clock. Game Notes: A crowd of 2,862 spectators took in the event, marking the largest home crowd for the women all season … despite the loss, Army leads the alltime series, 26-25 … the teams will meet again in Annapolis, Md., on Feb. 21 in the annual Star Game … Navy held Army leading scorer Alex McGuire scoreless during the first half … five-time national jump rope champion Bouncing Bulldogs entertained at halftime.

Bucknell responded to score the next six points unanswered, establishing a29-23 edge with three minutes to go. An Anthony putback at the 1:49 mark ended what had been over a four-minute scoreless drought for the Black Knights.

The Black Knights could not get a shot off and entered the locker room facing a 29-27 deficit. Army opened the second half with back-to-back turnovers, which allowed the Bison to extend their lead to 33-27 just 1:33 into the second stanza. McGuire’s second triple of the night (18:08) started a quick 9-0 Army run that put the Black Knights back in front, 36-33, with just under 16 minutes to play.

Evans missed the second, leaving Army to dig out of a 58-57 hole with 4.3 seconds on the clock. Army fouled Brown in a hurry. Brown missed the first but hit the second to make it 59-57 in favor of the Bison with 4.3 seconds remaining. Magarity opted to use his last timeout to set up a final play to either tie or win the contest. Army got the ball down the court, but a Hawkins travel with 0.8 seconds remaining sealed the Bucknell win.

HACKENSACK, N.J. - In its final non-conference test of the season, the Army women’s basketball team used a 26-6 run to open the second half and carry the team to a 50-37 road win at Fairleigh Dickinson on Wednesday night at the Rothman Center. Following a 23-23 halftime tie, the Black Knights held FDU to just three field goals in the final frame, while also out-scoring the Knights by a 27-14 margin in the last 20 minutes of play. Senior G Alex McGuire led all scorers with 17 points, while sophomore F Erin Anthony pulled down a game-best 15 boards. Army shot 31 percent (16-of-51) for the game, while holding the Knights to a 23 percent (12-of-53) percent mark. Army out-rebounded FDU (44-38) and out-scored the Knights by a 22-8 margin in the paint. Sophomore G/F Laura Baranek chipped in with nine points, all in the second half, while Anthony and senior F Courtney Wright added eight apiece. Senior F Megan Evans came away with a career-high four blocks to go with her five points and nine boards. Army scored the final four points of the first half, thanks to a Wright layup and a Nalini Hawkins steal and transition layup with five seconds on the clock to tie the game at 23-all heading into the break. Fairleigh Dickinson buried a three-pointer right out of the gate to take a 26-23 lead, but that would be the Knights’ only field goal over for the next 13-plus minutes. Baranek scored all nine of her points during that critical stretch, including seven of Army’s first 10 points of the second half. The Black Knights also got a pair of threepointers out of McGuire, along with four-straight points from Wright to pull away from the Knights. An Evans jumper from Wright with 8:13 on the clock gave Army its largest lead of the game, 47-28, and the Black Knights maintained a double-digit edge from there. As much as Army dominated the second half, the opening 20 minutes played by a much different script. Featuring four ties and six lead changes, neither team led by more than four points the entire way. FDU owned that four-point advantage, 20-17, with just under a minute to go in the half. The Black Knights went on to score the final four points of the half to knot the score for its fourth and final time, 23-23, heading into halftime. Army struggled from the free throw line for the majority of the night, including a 4-of-10 performance in the first half. The Black Knights finished shooting 58 percent (14-of-24) for the night. The Black Knights return to Patriot League play when the team hosts Colgate on Saturday, Feb. 7, at 1 p.m. The first 1,000 fans with a paid ticket to Christl Arena will receive a special Black Jack Build-A-Bear courtesy of the Army Athletic Association.

WEST POINT, N.Y. – The Army women’s basketball team shot nearly 50 percent from the field, while sophomores F Erin Anthony and G/F Laura Baranek combined for 34 points as the Black Knights cruised to a 59-39 Patriot League win over Colgate on Saturday afternoon at Christl Arena. Beginning with 1:11 to play in the first half and stretching into the first 12 minutes of the second frame, Army (14-9, 4-4) out-scored Colgate (4-19, 0-8) by a decisive 27-10 margin that sealed the Army victory. A jumper from senior F Courtney Wright with 7:58 to play equaled the Black Knights’ largest lead of the game at 28 (56-28). The Black Knights, who led 32-20 at the break, held at least a 20-point lead the rest of the way. Anthony narrowly missed her seventh double-double of the year with a career-high 18 points and nine boards. The Allentown, Pa., native shot 8-of-11 from the field on the way to leading all players in scoring. Anthony’s Parkland High School teammate, Baranek, shot 5-for-8 on the afternoon and was just one point away from her careerbest with 16 points. Sophomore G Nalini Hawkins followed with eight points, while senior G Alex McGuire and senior F Megan Evans added six and five points, respectively. Evans chipped in five rebounds, as the Black Knights out-rebounded Colgate by a 35-25 margin. Along with Anthony and Baranek, Hawkins shot better than 50 percent (4-of-7) on the afternoon. The trio led Army to one of its best shooting efforts of the season at 46 percent (24-of-52). Colgate scored seven of its 15 field goals from behind the arc. Army’s defense, which entered the game ranked eighth in the country in scoring defense, held the Raiders to a 33 percent (15-of-45) mark from the field. Army opened a 4-0 lead over the first three minutes of the contest, as McGuire nailed a baseline jumper (19:06) and later found an open Hawkins for a layup with 17:05 on the clock. Colgate head coach Pam Bass burned her first timeout of the game at that point. Evans answered the breather with her first three-pointer of the year, drilling a shot from the top of the key to stretch Army’s lead to 7-0 with 16:08 remaining. Colgate’s Sami Kozlowski and Tayler Wejnert netted back-to-back triples over the next 1:32 to quickly pull back to within two, 8-6, with 14:36 to play in the half. McGuire’s steal and ensuing layup 30 seconds later ignited a quick 6-0 Army run that pulled the Black Knights back in front by eight (14-6) with 13 minutes to play. Colgate responded with five unanswered tallies over the next minute-plus, cutting the deficit to just three, 14-11, with 11:38 remaining. Anthony silenced the Raider surge by corralling a pass inside from Hawkins for an easy layin (10:58), while Wright followed with her first bucket of the game (8:12) to push Army’s lead back up to seven (18-11). Wejnert then responded with Colgate’s fourth three-pointer of the afternoon to keep the Raiders within striking distance (18-14) with just under eight minutes to go in the half. Colgate hit four of its first six three-pointers, and got all but two of its points over the first 12 minutes from behind the arc. Kozlowksi came out of the under-8:00 media timeout with a layup that again made it a two-point contest (18-16), but McGuire followed with a jumper at the 6:42 mark that pushed it back to a four-point advantage. Hawkins’ running layup ended a three-minute scoring drought for both teams and started an 11-0 Army run. Baranek capped the spurt with five-straight points, giving the Black Knights their largest lead to that point (29-16) with just over two minutes to play. The Black Knights held on for a 32-30 halftime lead. Anthony scored Army’s first six points of the second frame, helping the Black Knights’ balloon their lead to 16 (36-20) just 2:11 into the half. A Kozlowski three-pointer at the 16-minute mark trimmed the deficit to 13 (38-25), but the Raiders would get no closer the rest of the way. Army went on to score the next seven points unanswered, as McGuire’s steal and pass up the court to Hawkins for a layup (12:46) gave the Black Knights’ their first 20-point lead of the afternoon (45-25). Game Notes: The first 1,000 paid fans to Christl Arena were given a special edition Black Jack Build-A-Bear as a part of Army’ Marketing’s aggressive giveaway initiative this season ... 1,091 spectators turned out for the Saturday matinee game ... Army’s defense has held its last two opponents to under 40 points ... Dave Magarity used the same starting lineup that he has in all 23 games this year (Hawkins, McGuire, Baranek, Evans, Anthony) ... freshmen Kait Goodall (two points), Erin Jankowski and Meagan Douceette, along with sophomore Laura Burdick clocked solid minutes off the bench.

WEST POINT, N.Y. – Sophomore F Erin Anthony scored a career-high 24 points, including 16 of the final 20 points as Army rallied to a 63-62 Patriot League win on Wednesday night at Christl Arena. Neither team led by more than seven points the entire way, as Army notched its fifth conference win of the year. Army (15-9, 5-4) avenged a loss at Holy Cross (10-14, 5-4) earlier this season, thanks in large part to Anthony, along with senior G Alex McGuire (15 points) and sophomore F Laura Baranek (13) both scoring in double figures. Anthony came up just shy of a double-double for the third game in a row with a team-high eight points and three blocks. Seniors F Megan Evans and F Courtney Wright added seven boards apiece, as Army out-rebounded the Crusaders by a 39-32 margin. The Black Knights shot 38 percent (23-of-60) from the field, while Holy Cross hit for a 41 percent (21-of-51) clip. Junior G Bethany O’Dell paced all players with 26 points. McGuire opened the scoring with a three-pointer from the right wing 49 seconds into the contest, but the Crusaders scored 10 of the next 12 points to take a 12-5 advantage with 16 minutes to play in the first half. Army went on to score the next five points unanswered, including McGuire’s second triple of the game, slicing the deficit to 12-10 with 14:34 on the clock. The teams traded buckets over the next two minutes until Holy Cross netted fivestraight to go up 19-12 with just under 10 minutes to play. Sophomore G Jessie Coiffard ended a three-minute Army scoring drought, as she drilled a three from the right wing to give the Black Knights’ wheels going again. McGuire then hit a pair of free throws with nine minutes to play, which kept Army’s deficit to just two points (19-17). That score remained on the board over the next three-plus minutes until Anthony’s layup with 5:22 on the clock leveled the score at 19-all. Holy Cross responded with a 6-0 run to close the half and enter the locker room with a 25-19 edge. McGuire got Army on the board in the second half as well, while Anthony followed with a jumper at the 18:21 to pull the Black Knights back within a pair (25-23). Holy Cross’ Alyssa May drained a three-pointer (16:51) to put the Crusaders ahead by seven (32-25), but the Black Knights responded with a 15-4 run over the next 3:31 to take their largest lead of the game, 43-39, with 10:54 to play. Baranek highlighted the stretch with a layup and a pair of three-point buckets, while McGuire got the spurt started with a three-pointer from the top of the key at the 14:25 mark. After Holy Cross’ Briana McFadden converted a traditional three-point play with 10:12 remaining, Anthony kept Arm in the game by scoring the Black Knights’ next 16 points on her own. The Allentown, Pa., native’s jumper with 2:06 to play pushed her past her career best marker and gave Army its largest lead to that point (5752). The teams battled back-and-forth over the final two minutes. Anthony came through again with a pair of free throws with 47 seconds remaining to give Army a 59-54 edge. Following a Wright foul, Army put O’Dell on the line where the junior hit both shots with 40 seconds remaining. The Crusaders proceeded to make Army seal the win at the free throw line, where Evans made a pair to push the Black Knights’ lead to four (61-56) with 20 seconds left. Meanwhile, O’Dell drilled her third triple of the night to pull back to within a bucket (61-59) with 15 ticks left. After a pair of timeouts on the floor, Holy Cross sent one of the Patriot League’s best free throw shooter to the line and watched McGuire hit them both. Holding a 63-59 edge, McFadden’s desperation three at the buzzer went in, but it was not enough. Game Notes: Holy Cross beat Army in the first meeting between the two teams this year, 57-41, in Worcester, Mass., on Jan. 14 ... Alex McGuire notched a season-high six assists as Army handed out 15 on the night ... the Black Knights were credited with six blocks – three from Erin Anthony ... Army shot 83 percent (10-of-12) from the free throw line ... the victory extended Army’s win streak to three games.

BETHLEHEM, Pa. – Sophomore F Erin Anthony led all scorers with a career-high 27 but it was not enough as Lehigh dealt Army a 66-57 loss in Patriot League women’s basketball action on Saturday night at Stabler Arena. While the win kept Lehigh (19-6, 8-2) in a tie with American atop the Patriot League standings, Army (15-10, 5-5) moved into a three-way tie with Holy Cross and Bucknell for fourth place. Anthony shot 11-for-17 from the field and 5-for-8 from the free throw line en route to a standout performance in front of her hometown crowd. Senior G Alex McGuire represented Army’s next leading scorer with nine points, while sophomore Jessie Coiffard registered a career-best eight points. Army shot 37 percent (20-of-54) from the floor, while Lehigh managed a 32 percent (14-of-44) mark. Both teams ended up with 35 rebounds on the night. Senior F Megan Evans and sophomore G Nalini Hawkins led Army with seven boards apiece. Lehigh pressured Army from the start, but neither team was able to come up with a field goal over the first three-plus minutes. Anthony recorded Army’s first bucket of the game (16:43), but Lehigh went on to open an 8-2 lead with 15 minutes to play. Back-to-back layins from Anthony and senior F Courtney Wright allowed the Black Knights to pull within two (10-8) at the 13:26 mark. Anthony continued to be successful against the Lehigh zone, as her layup with just over eight minutes to go gave Army its first lead of the game, 13-12. Anthony accounted for 11 of the Black Knights’ first 13 points of the night, but picked up her second foul with 7:56 to play, forcing her to sit the bench for the rest of the half. Hawkins drilled a three from the top of the key extended the Black Knights’ edge to 16-14 with 7:38 to go. Lehigh’s Alex Ross answered back with a three-ball of her own (6:43), which jumpstarted a 17-4 Mountain Hawk run to close the half. Lehigh held a 31-18 lead at the break. The teams traded buckets over the opening minutes of the second period. McGuire’s three from the left wing (14:21) made it 38-25 in favor of the Mountain Hawks and started a quick 11-2 Army run to pull the Black Knights to within eight (40-32). Coiffard’s three preceded sophomore G/F Laura Baranek’s first bucket of the game (11:50) to cap the spurt. Lehigh scored its next four points from the free throw line (11:04), as Army was whistled for a personal and technical foul on the same critical possession. Those free throws sparked a 12-2 Lehigh run that gave the Mountain Hawks a 51-34 edge with 8:24 to play. After Coiffard drained her second three-pointer of the night with 3:20 left, Army made its final push. Anthony’s hook shot and a transition layup from Hawkins at the 2:08 mark sliced the deficit to just seven points (60-53). Lehigh followed with a pair of free throws and a Black Knight turnover on the next possession ended Army’s rally. The Black Knight defense held Lehigh without a field goal over the final six minutes of the game, as Lehigh scored its final 11 points from the free throw line.

WASHINGTON, D.C. – Sophomore F Erin Anthony notched her seventh doubledouble (21 points, 13 rebounds) of the year, while senior G Alex McGuire added 18 points as the Army women’s basketball team collected a 60-58 overtime win on Wednesday night at Bender Arena. The victory places Army in a four-way tie with Navy, Holy Cross and Bucknell for third in the Patriot League standings. Playing its first overtime game of the season, Army (16-10, 6-5) became just the third Patriot League team to knock off American (18-8, 8-3), which entered the contest tied with Lehigh for first in the conference standings. Anthony scored at least 20 points for the third-straight game, shooting 9-of-17 from the field to lead all scorers. The Black Knights shot 40 percent (24-of-60) from the field, including five three-pointers. Army’s changing defenses held American to a 44 percent (20-of-45) mark, while the Black Knights also beat the Eagles on the boards (40-28). Senior F Courtney Wright, who got her first start of the season, pulled down 10 rebounds and classmate F Megan Evans managed seven off the bench. In a game that featured six ties, six lead changes and neither team leading by more than 11 from wire-to-wire, Army managed to carry a 28-25 lead into the locker room at halftime. The Eagles opened the second half with an 11-5 run spanning the first 5:21 that gave the team its first lead (36-33) since the 14:48 mark of the first half. Two minutes later, an Anthony layup with 12:41 to play gave Army the lead for good, 37-36. The Eagles would tie the score four times before the final horn sounded, but Army was able to keep American from moving in front the rest of the way. Anthony’s bucket sparked a 15-8 Army run that gave Army its largest lead of the half at eight (52-44) with 4:41 remaining in regulation. American was not done, however, as the Eagles closed the half riding a 10-2 run that leveled the score (54-54) at the end of regulation. Holding a five-point advantage (54-49) with two minutes to go, Army had a chance to push it to a seven-point advantage, but a tough layup from Wright did not fall leaving American with time to rally. Sophomore G Michelle Kirk did just that, drilling her only three of the night to slice the deficit to two (54-52) with a minute to play. McGuire’s shot did not fall on Army’s next possession and American senior G Talicia Jackson’s jumper with 14 seconds left tied the game at 54-54. Coming out of an Army timeout and facing American’s pressure, the Black Knights did not get a shot off before the buzzer sounded. With the momentum shifting to American’s bench, Anthony came out and scored a quick layup just 53 seconds into the extra session, but Kirk came back less than 30 seconds later to tie it (56-56) with a pair of good free throws. Neither team found the rim over the next minute, but it was sophomore G Nalini Hawkins’ well-timed 10-footer that kept Army afloat (58-56). Just as the rest of the game had indicated American came back to tie the score a final time (58-58) on a layup from sophomore F Liz Leer with two minutes to go. Leer was then whistled for a foul with 1:31 on the clock, sending Anthony to the free throw line for just the second time of the night. The Allentown, Pa., hit both shots, which proved to be the game-winning tallies, as neither team scored over the final 1:31.
Ross, G Erica Prosser and C Alexa Williams led Lehigh with 17 points each. The Mountain Hawks scored 33 of their 66 points from the foul line.
Army led by as many as 11 points in the first half, taking a 24-13 lead on a jumper from senior G Megan Ennenga with just under five minutes to play before the break. That was the only double-digit lead of the night for either team.
Game Notes: Army and Lehigh split the regular-season series, as Army won the first meeting (54-52) at West Point in January ... Erin Anthony topped 20 points for the second game in a row ... Lehigh and Army both celebrated the WBCA’s Pink Zone initiative, sporting pink warm-ups, socks and ribbons, in an effort to raise breast cancer awareness ... the game was a homecoming for Lehigh Valley natives Erin Anthony (Allentown, Pa.) and Laura Baranek (Orefield, Pa.), who were teammates at Parkland High School ... Lehigh’s Stabler Arena will also serve as the backdrop for the 2009 Patriot League Women’s Basketball Tournament quarter and semifinal rounds.
Game Notes: Head coach Dave Magarity shuffled his starting lineup for the first time this season, as senior F Courtney Wright got the nod in place of classmate Megan Evans … the game marked Army’s first overtime win since topping Navy, 70-66, last Feb. 23 at Christl Arena … Nalini Hawkins (Columbia, Md./Bethesda-Chevy Chase) played in front of a hometown crowd, having grown up just 10 minutes from the American campus … Army’s win halted a four-game American win streak … Army is the only Patriot League team to beat both Lehigh and American, which have spent the majority of the season leading the conference, having split the regular season with both clubs.

ANNAPOLIS, Md. – Sophomore F Erin Anthony scored 19 points, while classmate G Nalini Hawkins added 15 points to lead Army in a fifth-straight “Star” Game victory on Saturday afternoon at Alumni Hall. The Black Knights improved to 17-10 overall and 7-5 in the Patriot League, while Navy dropped its fourth in the last five games and fell to 13-14 overall and 6-6 in conference action. The victory moved Army into a three-way tie with Holy Cross and Bucknell for third in the Patriot League standings. Anthony led Army in scoring for the fourth game in a row, shooting 7-for-13 on the afternoon. Hawkins’ 14 points complimented her five rebounds and four assists. Senior G Alex McGuire finished with eight points while tying Hawkins with a team-high four assists. McGuire’s eight tallies moved her into fourth place on Army’s all-time scoring ledger with 1,413 career points. Earning her second-straight start, senior F Courtney Wright led all players with nine boards. Senior F Megan Evans came up with eight rebounds off the bench, as Army won the battle of the boards by a 38-35 margin. Army shot 38 percent (21-of-55) from the field and 50 percent (7-of-14) from threepoint range. Anthony nailed a career-high three of Army’s seven triples on the afternoon, while sophomore G Jessica Coiffard added two. The Black Knights held Navy to 34 percent (18-of-53) percent from the floor. Hawkins scored Army’s first three buckets of the game, but the Mids hit their first four three-point baskets to keep pace. Navy’s Emily Cordle and Army’s Coiffard each drained back-to-back three-pointers, including Coiffard’s baseline triple that pulled Army back to within one, 16-15, with 10:45 to play in the half. An Anthony free throw (9:17) tied the score at 16-all while her fifth career threepointer on Army’s next possession gave the Black Knights a 19-16 cushion. Anthony’s next bucket also came from three-point land and handed the Black Knights their largest lead of the game to that point (24-20) with 5:21 on the clock. The teams exchanged baskets over the remainder of the half and entered the locker room tied, 26-26. Navy’s K.C. Gordon led all scorers with 10 points at the break, while the leading scorers for both teams were held without a single point in McGuire and Navy’s Cassie Consedine. Consedine finished with just four points on the afternoon. Both players got on the board within the first minute of the second half, as their teams traded baskets to open the second stanza. Anthony remained on fire from long range, draining her third three-pointer of the game (16:15) to start an 11-2 Army run that gave the Black Knights an eight-point edge (35-43). Hawkins capped the spurt with a steal and ensuing fast break layup with 12 minutes to play. After an Anthony free throw put Army in front by nine (45-37), Navy responded with a 9-1 run that leveled the score (46-46) for the fifth time of the afternoon. Army went on to score the next six points unanswered, including Baranek’s first three of the game (3:40), while McGuire capped the surge with a coast-to-coast layup with 3:13 to go and put Army in front, 52-46. Myers’ free throws accounted for Navy’s first points in nearly five minutes and pulled the Mids back to within four (52-48) with a minute to play in the game. Navy was forced to foul over the final minute of the game, where Hawkins, McGuire and Evans combined to go 6-for-7 from the line. Gordon and Whitney Davidson led Navy with 14 and 12 points, respectively. Game Notes: The game was the final time senior G Alex McGuire (Gambrills, Md./ Arundel) played in front of a hometown crowd ... Holy Cross (7-5) beat American (8-4) on the road in Saturday’s 1 p.m. conference game ... senior F Courtney Wright made her second-straight start ... Army moved ahead by a 27-25 edge in the alltime series against Navy ... Army has won five of its last six games, including two straight ... Army’s senior class owns a 6-2 record against the Mids during their time at West Point.

WEST POINT, N.Y. – Senior G Alex McGuire (19 points) and sophomore F Erin Anthony (20 points) combined for more than half of Army’s points, while senior F Megan Evans came up with her fifth career double-double (12 points, 11 rebounds) as the Army women’s basketball team rallied back from a 27-23 halftime deficit to score a 60-55 win over Lafayette on Wednesday night at Christl Arena. Behind improved shooting and solid second-half defense, Army used a 12-5 run midway through the second half to turn a one-point deficit (39-38) into a fivepoint lead (49-44) to secure the team’s third win in a row. Lafayette (8-20, 2-11) challenged the Black Knights all night long as the largest lead by either team was 10 points in a game that featured five ties. Anthony scored 16 of her 20 points in the second half, including a 10-of-11 effort from the free throw line, to lead all scorers. McGuire also did the majority of her damage (12 points) in the final 20 minutes of action. Evans’ 11 rebounds led all players, as Army won the battle of the boards by a 38-32 margin. Army finished the game with a 39 percent (20-of-51) effort from the field, while Lafayette shot 36 percent (16-of-45) on the night. Lafayette opened up a 5-0 lead to start the game, which included three free throws, before Hawkins got Army on the board (5-2) with a baseline jumper at the 18:24 mark. The Leopards went on to build a 13-4 lead when Lafayette G Cristin Zavocki hit a jumper with 14:16 remaining in the half. Victims of sub-par shooting to start, Army shot just 25 percent (2-of-8) from the floor over the first seven-plus minutes. Meanwhile, Lafayette extended its lead to ten (17-7) with 11:36 to play. The teams continued to trade buckets over the next two-plus minutes, as each time Army cut Lafayette’s lead to eight, the Leopards pushed it back up to 10. McGuire buried her first three-pointer of the game with 5:52 on the clock, which jumpstarted a mini 8-0 Army run that also featured McGuire’s second triple of the game (3:58). McGuire’s second three-pointer made it 23-21 still in favor of the Leopards. Lafayette went on to score the next five points unanswered, stretching its lead back to five (26-21) with 2:20 remaining before the break. Anthony’s hook shot (2:09) on Army’s next possession cut the deficit to three (26-23), but the Leopards scored the final point of the half from the free throw line to enter the locker room with a 27-23 advantage. McGuire hit her third three-pointer of the game (19:24) to open the second half and trim the Black Knights’ deficit to one (27-26). The Gambrills, Md., native’s triple gave her 10 points on the night at that point, moving her into third on Army’s all-time scoring ledger with 1,423 points. The Leopards maintained a four-point advantage (35-31) before three-straight McGuire free throws, including two as a result of a Lafayette technical foul, pulled the Black Knights to within one (35-34). Sophomore G/F Laura Baranek’s three-pointer from the left wing at the 15:19 mark handed Army its first lead (37-35) of the night.

WEST POINT, N.Y. –The Army women’s basketball team headed into its final regularseason game of the year against Bucknell with a chance to finish as high as second in the Patriot League. That notion drastically changed, however, as the Bison spoiled Army’s Senior Day with a 56-50 win over the Black Knights at Christl Arena. Three Army players finished in double figures, led by senior G Alex McGuire’s 12-point effort. She added a pair of rebounds and did not come off the floor all afternoon. Despite a 3-for-13 shooting effort, sophomore F Erin Anthony managed to score 10 points to go with eight rebounds. Sophomore G Nalini Hawkins also added 10 points, while senior F Courtney Wright pulled down a game-high 10 rebounds. Army out-rebounded Bucknell by a 37-33 margin. Bucknell (16-11, 8-6) took advantage of faulty Army (18-11, 8-6) free throw shooting down the stretch, as the Black Knights shot just 1-of-7 from the stripe over the final five minutes of play. The game featured six ties and neither team led by double-digits from start to finish. Although Army put itself in position to make a run, trimming the deficit to one (46-45) with just under five minutes to go, the Bison never relinquished the advantage. Army shot 35 percent (18-of-51) on the game and finished 8-of-18 (44 percent) from the free throw line. The Bison managed a 38 percent (19-of-50) shooting effort and were led by senior G Amanda Brown (19 points) and senior F Lauren Schober (16 points) in the scoring column. Army’s offense took a while to get rolling, as the Black Knights did not score their first bucket until senior G Megan Ennenga put her team on the board with a transition layup with 17:36 on the clock. Bucknell came out pressing Army early in the game, while the teams played back-and-forth over the first five minutes of work and found themselves tied 4-4 early. Both teams heated up from there as Bucknell’s Schober drained the first three of the game (15:20). Army sophomore G Laura Baranek answered for Army with a three of her own at the 13:19 mark, ending what had been a 3:17 Black Knight scoring drought and tied the game at 7-7. Schober and McGuire traded three-pointers, as each senior drained a triple over the next 30 seconds to knot the score for the fourth time of the afternoon, 10-10. McGuire’s three (10:33) from the top of the key tied the game for a fifth time (14-14), while Army took its first lead of the game (17-14) on Hawkins’ off-balance threepointer with 9:34 remaining. Four of Army’s first six field goals of the afternoon came from behind the arc. Army would enjoy its final lead of the game (17-16) with 9:07 to play in the first half. Bucknell answered in a hurry, however, closing the half riding a 12-4 run that gave the Bison a 26-21 advantage at the break. Anthony scored Army’s four points over the final six minutes of the contest on a layup (6:36) and a pair of single free throws (1:40, 0:05), the second coming courtesy of Bucknell F Joyce Novacek picking up her fourth foul of the game. The sophomore did not start the second half, not reentering the contest until 4:33 remaining in the game. Army’s defense came out strong in the second stanza and held the Bison without a field goal over the first seven-plus minutes, as Bucknell’s lone points during that span came via three free throws (17:32, 12:52). The Black Knights took advantage, starting the half on an 8-2 run that tied the game for a sixth time (29-29) on a layup from senior F Megan Evans with 12:38 on the clock.
The Leopards responded with four quick points to retake the lead (39-37) just over a minute later. Thanks in large part to three-straight McGuire jumpers, Army embarked on its critical 12-5 run over the next 6:29 to take its largest lead to that point (4944) with 6:38 to play.
Bucknell answered with a traditional three-point play and went to score 11 of the next 12 points, pushing the Bison ahead by nine (39-30) with 9:12 to play. Schober capped the spurt with her third triple of the game. Army sophomore G Jessie Coiffard’s three from the left wing followed, bringing Army back to within six (39-33) with eight minutes remaining.
Army led by as many as seven twice (2:47, 2:34) down the stretch, but the Leopards would not go away. A Jessica Spicer jumper with 1:38 on the clock pulled the Leopards back to within three (58-55), while an Army foul on the other end with 7.9 seconds remaining sent Lafayette’s Emily Garner to the free throw line, where the senior missed both. Anthony’s free throws with 3.8 ticks on the clock put the game out of Lafayette’s reach and produced the final 60-55 score.
Hawkins (6:59) and Schober (6:39) went on to trade three-point baskets that kept Bucknell on top by a 44-38 score. Hawkins answered with a 10-foot jumper with 6:11 to go that made it a four-point (44-40) Bucknell advantage. Her jumper sparked a 7-2 Army run, capped by a McGuire jumper at the 4:53 mark, to pull Army back to within one (46-45). That would be the closest the Black Knights would get the rest of the way, as Bucknell finished the game on a 10-5 run.
Game Notes: Senior G Megan Ennenga celebrated her 22nd birthday Wednesday ... the triumph extended Army’s win streak to 18 games against Lafayette ... Megan Evans scored in double figures for the first time since Jan. 24 against Navy ... she also added her fifth career double-double and first since a Dec. 3 contest against Albany ... Erin Anthony has scored at least 20 points in four of the Black Knights’ last five games ... the teams participated in the WBCA’s Pink Zone effort.
Game Notes: Army’s senior class will graduate with the most Division I wins in program history with a 80-40 record thus far ... Holy Cross beat Lafayette by a 71-60 score in the other 1 p.m. game, while American hosted Lafayette and Colgate hosted Navy in 2 p.m. tip-offs ... the loss was Army’s first on Senior Day in three years ... Bucknell has now won five-straight games against Army, dating back to 2007-08.

BETHLEHEM, Pa. – Sophomore G Nalini Hawkins scored a career-high 24 points as No. 5 Army exploded down the stretch to claim a 54-47 victory over No. 4 Holy Cross on Saturday afternoon at host Lehigh’s Stabler Arena. With the win, the Black Knights advance to the semifinal round for the first time in two years. A late second-half run erased 26-23 halftime deficit for the Black Knights, who recorded their 19th victory of the season. Clinging to a 39-38 lead, A Hawkins free throw (4:15) started a 10-2 Army run as the Black Knights grabbed their largest lead of the game (49-40) with 1:30 to play. Holy Cross cut it to four (49-45) with a pair of free throws from junior G Briana McFadden with 34 seconds remaining, but senior F Megan Evans’ layup just six seconds later all but sealed the win. Army shot 35 percent (18-of-52) from the floor. Evans and McGuire finished with nine and seven points respectively, leaving Evans one-point shy of a double-double as she led Army with 11 rebounds. Army’s defense, which entered the contest ranked eighth in the nation yielding less than 53 points per game, held Holy Cross to a 24 percent (13-of-55) shooting effort. Despite leading the Crusaders with 15 points, Army held leading scorer Briana McFadden to just 2-of-14 shooting. The junior guard shot 11-of-14 from the free throw line. Army (19-11) hit its first two shots in the first minute of action against the Holy Cross (13-17) zone, a Hawkins triple (19:43) and a hook shot from Anthony (19:00). Meanwhile, Holy Cross F Whitney Fremeau accounted for all four of the Crusaders’ points as they looked at a 5-2 deficit at the first media timeout (15:27). Hawkins drained her second three of the game coming out of the timeout as Army took an 8-4 advantage at the 15-minute mark. The Black Knights went on to score seven of the next 11 points, as an Evans jumper with 11:14 on the clock put Army in front by seven (15-8). Holy Cross went on to score the next 10 points unanswered, while the Black Knights endured a nearly a seven-minute scoring drought. Hawkins’ traditional three-point play at the 4:25 made it 18-all. Holy Cross out-scored Army by an 8-5 margin to enter halftime with a 26-23 advantage. McGuire came out of the break to score her first field goal of the afternoon, trimming the deficit to one (26-25) just 30 seconds into the second. The Black Knights scored the first three points of the second stanza to tie the game for a third time (26-26), while also holding Holy Cross without a point until McFadden’s free throw at the 15:29 mark. Sophomore G/F Laura Baranek (15:08) and Hawkins (14:28) later drained back-toback three-point buckets to give Army its first lead (32-27) since the midway point of the first half. Hawkins’ basket registered her fifth three-pointer of the afternoon, tying a career high for the Columbia, Md., native. Holy Cross netted the next seven-straight points to re-take the lead (34-32) with just under 10 minutes to play. Back-to-back layups from Wright ended a five-minute scoring lull for the Black Knights and gave Army a 36-34 lead with just under eight minutes to play. Officials whistled Baranek for her fifth and disqualifying foul with 7:45 to play, while McFadden’s ensuing free throws knotted the score at 36-all. Hawkins later drove coast-to-coast for a layup with 5:46 to play, putting Army back on top by a 38-36 score. While Army clung to a 40-38 advantage with under three minutes to play, Holy Cross G Bethany O’Dell fouled out and Evans made both free throws to push Army’s lead to 42-38 at the 2:39 mark. Army came out of a timeout on fire to score 14 of the final 23 points to seal the victory. A Wright steal and good layup with 2:25 remaining preceded a huge McGuire three-point bucket (1:50) that put Army in front by a 47-40 score. Evans also went 4-for-4 from the free throw line to help the cause down the stretch. The Black Knights have less than 24 hours to prepare for its semifinal match-up against No. 1 Lehigh, which will tip-off at 1 p.m. on Sunday afternoon. Army and Lehigh split the regular-season series with each team winning on its home court. Army and American accounted for the only two blemishes in the Mountain Hawks’ 12-2 Patriot League season.

2009-10 WOMEN’S BASKETBALL MEDIA GUIDE ABOUT THE PATRIOT LEAGUE In October of 1982, Dr. Peter Likins, then-president of Lehigh University, shared a vision he had with several of his colleagues. That dream became a reality two years later when the Colonial League was established. The league, formally organized in 1984, was founded on the principles of maintaining teams of athletes whose academic ability and progress are representative of the entire student body, the awarding of athletic scholarships on the basis of need, and holding institutional presidents directly responsible for governance and policies. Founding members of the league included Bucknell University, Colgate University, Davidson University, the College of the Holy Cross, Lafayette College and Lehigh University. Fordham University ultimately replaced Davidson after three years of football competition. Originally formed as a football-playing league, the Colonial League began formal competition in 1986 and was renamed the Patriot League in December 1989. It was at the beginning of the 1990-91 academic year that the Patriot League began competition in 23 sports, including football. Just prior to that year, the United States Military Academy joined the league. The United States Naval Academy followed for the 1991-92 season to boost league membership to eight. During the summer of 2001, American University formally joined the Patriot League in all sports and began competition that fall. In its second decade of competition, the league now includes American, Army, Bucknell, Colgate, Holy Cross, Lafayette, Lehigh and Navy as full members, and Fordham and Georgetown as associate members. Alan W. Childs, Dean of Academic Services at Lafayette College, was selected as the league’s first executive director in 1986. Dr. Childs helped bring the league to its feet by setting a strong foundation and adhering to the principles outlined by Likins and the other league presidents. Former Army athletic director Carl Ullrich, who was inducted into the Army Sports Hall of Fame in September of 2007, was named the league’s first fulltime executive director in May 1989. For one year, he served in a dual capacity as Army athletic director and Patriot League director. He retired from West Point in the summer of 1990 and served the league full-time until retiring in the summer of 1993. Connie Hurlbut succeeded Ullrich and became the first woman to be named executive director of a Division I league. Hurlbut oversaw the league’s operation for six seasons until resigning her post in the spring of 1999 to become Director of Operations for the WNBA. Carolyn Schlie Femovich, named to the league’s top post soon after Hurlbutt’s departure, ushered the league into its second decade of all-sports competition in 2001-02 and continues to steer the league via a myriad of regional and national initiatives. The Black Knights have captured the Presidents’ Cup—signifying the league’s all-sports champion—four times, including walking away with the hardware in the spring of 2005 for the first time since 1997. Army’s men have captured nine all-sports championships in the last 17 years, including a streak of six in a row from 1992-93 through 1997-98. Army women’s basketball is 117-135 since the inception of the Patriot League in 1991-92 and won the Patriot League title in 2005-06.

2009-10 WOMEN’S BASKETBALL MEDIA GUIDE 2008-09 PATRIOT LEAGUE REVIEW In its second decade of combining academic and athletic excellence, the Patriot League sponsors championships in 23 men and women’s sports. Initially started as an NCAA Division I-AA football conference in 1986, the Patriot League became an all-sport conference in 1990 and includes American, Army, Bucknell, Colgate, Holy Cross, Lafayette, Lehigh and Navy as full members, and Fordham and Georgetown as associate members. These institutions are among the oldest and most prestigious in the nation and their alumni have, and continue to play leadership roles in shaping our country. Since 1998, the Patriot League has ranked first each year among all Division I conferences awarding athletic aid in the NCAA Graduation Rate Report. The League finished at the top spot with 96 percent of its teams reporting a graduation rate of 85 percent or higher in the most recent data. In addition, 76 Patriot League teams earned NCAA Academic Performance Program Public Recognition Awards after posting academic progress rate scores in the top 10 percent of all squads in their respective sports.

2009-10 WOMEN’S BASKETBALL MEDIA GUIDE HISTORY ON THE HARDWOOD 1976-77 After President Gerald Ford signed legislation in 1975 that declared women would be permitted to seek nomination and attend a military institution, the U.S. Military Academy welcomed its first co-ed class in July of 1976. That historic change not only impacted the nation’s armed forces, but also dramatically reshaped the profile of the academies’ athletic program. Basketball was the first women’s sport at the U.S. Military Academy to field a team, and played an intercollegiate schedule at the club status its first year. There were no fall sports that first year, but plans were being laid in August for a woman’s basketball team with Dennis VanFossen heading the program. More than 30 players tried out with the roster finally being trimmed to 11 players, but only six had experience in organized high school basketball. That group was affectionately dubbed the “Sugar Smacks” by the Corps. Smack is cadet slang for a plebe or freshman and the sugar was added in referring to the feminine gender. On December 1, 1976, Army hosted Skidmore College before a capacity crowd in the Central Gymnasium in opening a 20-game schedule (with all but two played at home). Army went on to close out its first year with an impressive 15-5 mark, showing it was ready for the next step -- varsity status in 1977-78. The first team averaged 68.9 points a game, tallying 1,309 points along with grabbing 750 rebounds. Army shot 38.6 percent from the floor and 50.7 percent at the charity stripe. Colleen Brennan led the team in scoring, assists and free throws. She piled up 327 points (19.2 ppg.), shot 72.5 percent from the line and dished off 64 assists. Christi Stevens topped the team with 232 rebounds (12 rpg.) while Carol Barkalow finished second in scoring (13.2 ppg.) and rebounding (9.2 rpg.).
1977-78: Army opens its first varsity season at the Division I level. The Black Knights finished the season with an impressive 18-5 record. 1977-78 Army’s performance its first year at the club level showed it was ready to move to the next step in its elevation to varsity status. Joe Ciampi, a successful local boys’ coach at Marlboro High, was named to head the women’s program. He enjoyed tremendous success during his tenure, compiling a 39-10 record over a twoyear period. Army played its first intercollegiate game at New Paltz, just a few miles away from the Academy, on Monday, Nov. 28 at 7 p.m. The team literally ran New Paltz off the floor, jumping out to a 42-9 lead at the half, on its way to a lopsided 84-17 decision. Dena Caradimitropoulo, a plebe from Tucker, Ala., was the leading scorer with 15 points along with 14 points from Melissa Miles, while Kim Hall and Laurie Utchel chipped in with 10 points apiece. Army made its home debut two days later at Central Gymnasium, hosting Fordham in a 4 p.m. tilt. The gym was overflowing as the cadets cheered the ladies on to a 65-56 decision over the Rams. Army rolled to its third straight victory, defeating Cortland State, 82-73. Ciampi’s squad built a 19-point lead in the first half, then preserved that margin over the final 20 minutes. The Black Knights then suffered their first defeat, bowing 58-53 in the first game of a doubleheader at St. John’s. Army outscored the Red Storm 32-31 in the second half, but was unable to overcome an 11-point first-half disadvantage. Army would only lose four more times as it spun an 18-5 mark. Among its highlights was a 6251 win over Indiana University, the defending state champions. Carol Barkalow and Caradimitropoulo shared individual scoring honors in compiling 13.8 averages. Earlier in the year, Barkalow set a school single-game mark with a 30-point effort in a 71-40 home victory over Long Island University. 1978-79
1976-77: Dennis VanFossen served as the head coach of the first women’s sport added to the Army athletic program in July of 1976.

Army’s second varsity season and final year in the 1970s resulted in its first 20-plus win season as head coach Joe Ciampi guided the team to runner-up honors at the New York State AIAW Championship. Army exhibited balanced scoring throughout

the season en route to compiling a 21-5 mark. The Black Knights set a school single-game record in scoring 111 points to defeat visiting New Paltz by a 72-point margin. That latter record still stands, though the former mark for points was broken in 1986-87. After gaining a postseason berth, the first in its short history, Army joined St. John’s, Fordham and C.W. Post at the AIAW Tournament hosted by Iona. Seeded second, Army edged St. John’s, 50-48, in its semifinal game, but bowed in the finals to top-seed Fordham, 63-60. Dena Caradimitropoulo topped the team in scoring with 278 points (10.6 ppg.). Kim Hall was next at 9.6 ppg., along with ripping down a team-high 193 boards. After leading Army to an impressive start, winning 80 percent of its contests the first two varsity years, Ciampi accepted the head coaching position at Auburn where he coached until his retirement following the 2003-04 season. 1979-80 The first women’s class marched into its senior season with a new name and a new coach with Liz Cousins becoming the first woman to head the program. As the first class moved up the ranks, Army traded its “Sugar Smacks” moniker for the more sophisticated Black Knights. Under Cousins’ direction, the Black Knights posted their fourth straight winning campaign. Stevens made history in being elected captain all four years. Pat Walter and Kim Hall finished one-two in scoring and rebounding. Pat Walter averaged 11.2 ppg. in scoring while grabbing 214 rebounds, followed by Hall’s 10.8 ppg. and 213 boards. 1980-81 Harold Johnson, an assistant to Liz Cousins, became the third varsity coach at the helm when he took over the program. He went on to produce a 12386 mark during his seven-year tenure. Johnson did not disappoint his inaugural season as he led Army to runner-up honors at the New York AIAW Championships, while tying the school record for victories in compiling a 21-13 mark.
2009-10 WOMEN’S BASKETBALL MEDIA GUIDE HISTORY ON THE HARDWOOD It was the second time in history that the Black Knights finished runner-up in a state tournament. His efforts earned him “Coach of the Year” honors by the Eastern Women’s Intercollegiate Newsletter. Seeded fourth at the tournament, Army upended top-seed St. John’s 69-66 in overtime, but lost in the finals to C.W. Post, 69-59. Army and Navy also met for the first time in a predetermined draw at the Burger King Classic sponsored by Dartmouth with Army claiming a 6548 victory. Kim Hall closed out the season as the team’s leading scorer (11.8 ppg.) and rebounder (7.8 rpg.). In early February, she became the first woman in Academy history to score 1,000 points. 1981-82 Facing one of the most challenging schedules in history, a young and inexperienced team turned in a strong showing in the first Metro Atlantic Conference championships, bowing to St. Peter’s in the finals, 65-51, en route to a 15-14 mark. Pat Walter became the second Black Knight to reach the 1,000-points milestone, breaking Kim Hall’s mark by two points (1,108). Yearling Melody Smith, named to the MAAC all-tournament team, topped the team in scoring (10.2 ppg.) and was the only player in double figures. 1982-83 Army suffered its first losing campaign, struggling to an 11-16 mark in its final year in the MAAC (4-6) and Division I. It would be eight years before Army returned to Division I level of competition. Army enjoyed depth in the frontcourt, but lacked that ingredient in the backcourt. Smith, an All-MAAC pick, led the team in scoring with a 16.5 ppg., hitting 48.5 percent from the floor and 85.4 percent from the stripe. Plebe Pam Pearson finished second in scoring (9.7 ppg.) and led the team in rebounding (9.3 rpg.), while Alma Cobb wasn’t far behind in averaging eight caroms a game.
1980-81: Kim Hall becomes the first woman in Army history to score 1,000 career points.
1983-84 Army’s introduction to Division II proved an incredible success. Armed with a fast-breaking style of basketball, Coach Harold Johnson led the Black Knights to the quarterfinals of the NCAA Division II Tournament and a school record 25-3 mark. Army, ranked fifth nationally at the conclusion of the season, won the New York State R.T. French Women’s Cup and was the Eastern Regional champion. A clutch basket by freshman Laurie Goetz and four free throws by Melody Smith in the final 28 seconds carried Army to a 59-53 victory over Utica in an NCAA Division II East Regional game at the Army Field House. That win earned Army a trip to the NCAA quarterfinals where it faced Valdosta State, ranked third nationally, on St. Patrick’s Day. Luck was not with the Black Knights whose 10-game winning streak was snapped in a 92-65 defeat. The Lady Blazers broke open a 17-17 game by pulling away 36-25 with 3:52 left until intermission, then pulled out to a 10-point lead at halftime. Valdosta State stretched its lead to 16 and Army was unable to mount a comeback. Foul shooting proved a factor as Army shot 33 percent and the Lady Blazers hit 71 percent. Jenni Moehringer led Army with a career-high 24 points and Pam Pearson chipped in with 15. Both were named to the all-tournament team. Smith became the third Black Knight to score 1,000 points along with becoming Army’s all-time scoring leader just nine games into the season. She scored 409 points her final year in closing out her career with a school record 1,420 points that stood for another 20 years. Pearson, who broke the school single-game rebounding mark with 22 against St. Francis (Ill.), became the first women’s basketball player named to an All-America squad with her selection to the second team by the American Women’s Sports Federation. Johnson was named the Northeast Region “Coach of the Year” along with being selected an All-America Coach.
1985-86: Harold Johnson earned his 100th career win at the helm of the Black Knights, and was named the College Division All-America coach for the third consecutive year.
1984-85 Army just missed a winning season (14-15), but the Black Knights continued their assault on the record books. Pam Pearson reached the 1,000 point plateau at the conclusion of her junior year, the first player to do so in three years. She shattered Kim Hall’s record for career rebounds, and her mark of 881, set over a three-year period, has yet to be matched. Pearson repeated as a second team AllAmerica and won several conference and regional awards. Her frontcourt mate, Julie DelGiorno, was an honorable mention All-America, while Harold Johnson again was selected an All-America coach. DelGiorno topped the team in scoring with 14.9 ppg. and was second in rebounding at 8.6 in grabbing 240. Pearson was the rebounding leader with 317 (10.9 ppg.) and was second in scoring (14.4 ppg.).

In addition to garnering second team All-America honors, DelGiorno was selected first team all-region and all-league. Johnson was named a College Division All-America coach for the third straight year. 1986-87 Army turned in its best performance in the Empire State Conference to date after claiming the runner-up spot in both the regular-season and playoffs to close the books on an 18-14 campaign. It proved a banner year for team captain Laurie Goetz who shattered six school marks. The four-year “floor general” broke the record for points in a game (39) and season (568) in closing out her career as the second-leading scorer in school history with 1,331 points. Her record for points in a game has yet to be equaled. Goetz also set assist marks on season (129) and career (436) levels as well as career steals (168).

She broke the Academy mark for season assists (182) in closing out her sophomore year. 1988-89 Youth and inexperience took its toll as the best Army could manage was just one win in its final seven games to finish under .500. In spite of its 11-15 mark, Army ranked third in the nation in scoring defense for the second straight year after holding its opponents to 57.5 ppg. The Black Knights, the defending ESC champions, were at one point tied for first place in the regular-season standings, but settled for fourth place and a playoff berth against Pace. The Setters rallied in the second half to eliminate Army with a 64-58 decision.

She missed only one start (the first game of her plebe year) in 114 games and is the only player to accomplish that. Kawamoto ranked
1989-90 Though a postseason bid eluded Army its final season at the Division II level, the Black Knights had several highlights on which to reflect. Troubled by an injury-riddled first half, the Black Knights rallied from an 0-7 start to win 19 of 22 games in the second half for a final 19-10 mark. Army ranked first in the nation in scoring defense (49.3 ppg.) and third in field goal percentage defense (35.0).

The Black Knights were ranked nationally for the sixth straight year in scoring defense (10th/57.8), swept Navy and posted their first league win over Holy Cross, 54-52. Lisa Russell walked off with the top Patriot League honors for the second straight year with her selection as co-MVP. A first team all-star pick, the 5-9 forward led the league in scoring (18.2 ppg.) and field goal percentage (51.2). She was named a third team All-America by the American Women’s Sports Federation and selected to the inaugural All-Met first team by the Metropolitan Basketball Association. Russell became the fifth Black Knight to earn All-America honors, but just the second selected as a sophomore. She topped the team in scoring for the second straight year and led the Black Knights in rebounding (7.1 rpg). Her 492 points were the second highest single-season mark in school history. Sophomore Carrie Garinger set USMA records for three-point field goals on game (5) and career (25) levels en route to finishing second in scoring (9.3 ppg.).

1997-98
With just one starter back to form Army’s nucleus, a young Black Knight team suffered through a 4-23 season. Navy snapped Army’s series win streak at nine, while putting the skids to a seven-game league drought in posting its first home victory since 1989. The Black Knights defeated Navy in the second meeting to extend their home domination over the Mids to five straight. In the Hudson Valley Challenge Trophy, Army rallied to edge Marist, 50-49.

Army suffered though its fourth straight losing campaign which resulted in head coach Lynn Chiavaro resigning at the conclusion of a 7-20 season after an 11-year reign. Jamie Arundell provided many of the individual highlights in becoming the 10th player in Black Knights history to eclipse the 1,000-point mark in closing out her career ranked 10th in scoring (1,007 points) and 11th in rebounding (528). She earned second team all-Patriot League honors after finishing among the leaders with 334 points and 174 rebounds. Freshmen Dawn Halfaker and Megan Work were named to the all-rookie team, the first time any Army players were picked for that unit since the 1992 season. Halfaker broke Army’s single-season mark for steals (85), tops in the league as well, in earning a national ranking of 18th (T). The Black Knights hosted their first-ever tournament Thanksgiving weekend inviting Air Force, St. Francis (N.Y.) and St. Bonaventure to that inaugural field.

Defying a last-place ranking in the preseason coaches’ poll, Army jumped out to a 2-1 start in the Patriot League. That success proved short-lived as the team struggled with a depleted lineup during a 14-day suspension period due to disciplinary action. After losing its hold in the first-half standings, Army was unable to return to that early success. The Black Knights defied the odds once again when they upset defending champion and preseason favorite Holy Cross, 68-62, at Christl Arena to earn a share of fifth place with Navy and a chance to control their destiny with two league games remaining. That win proved the high point of a difficult schedule as Army dropped its final two regular-season games to finish sixth in the standings. Jamie Arundell was named to the Patriot League second team all-star unit after leading the team in scoring (11.5 ppg.) and rebounding (5.9 rpg.). Kim Hanson grabbed a team-high 145 rebounds to close out her career 15th on the charts with 445 caroms. Senior guard Carrie Jeanneret moved into fourth place in career assists with 327. Plebe Karen Callahan set a USMA Christl Arena record in a 20-rebound performance against Cornell, and Lynn Chiavaro became the winningest coach in school history with 125 victories.
Sherri Abbey-Nowatzki took over at the Army helm and became the sixth head coach of the women’s basketball program. Army’s 62-56 defeat of Yale in December was its first over an Ivy League school, spanning 12 games, since the 1995-96 season. Nowatzki’s most impressive of four milestone victories came in Patriot League play. A first-round league road defeat of Lafayette proved one for the record books as Army’s 56-53 verdict snapped a 10-game losing streak in its firstever win on the Leopards’ home court. Army’s 51-50 triumph over Navy in the annual “Trophy Game” at Alumni Hall snapped a ninegame losing streak to the Mids and returned the trophy to West Point for the first time since 1994. Nowatzki’s cagers didn’t rest on their laurels as they had one more shocker left, that coming in the opening round of the postseason tournament hosted by Army. The No. 7 seed Black Knights became the lowest-seeded team in Patriot League tournament history to pull off an upset when they upended No. 2 Bucknell 72-67 in the tip-off game. Senior co-captain Laura Worthing led Army in scoring with 328 points (11.7 ppg.) in closing out her career with 847 points to rank 16th on the all-time scoring charts along with a school-record 57 three-pointers. Sophomore Therese Kelley was named to the league’s second team and plebe Halaevalu Helu was an all-tournament pick.
1994-95
1996-97 It was not a kind season and proved the worst in school history as Army suffered through a frustrating 1-25 campaign. Army fell to Navy three times as its losing skid to the Mids stretched to six straight dating back to 1995-96. Julie Schellhase, whose three-pointer lifted Army to its lone win over Colgate, broke the school career mark for treys with 53. Adrienne Quimby topped Army in scoring (9.9 ppg.) and rebounding (5.1 rpg.). Laura Worthing, the top point producer with 250 points (9.6), was a second team allleague pick.
1999-2000 Though a young Army team had its share of peaks and valleys, the Black Knights’ 6-3 mark in January proved their best monthly showing since 1994. During that time, Army ranked third in the Patriot League. Army’s win over Lafayette (91-60) set a pair of Christl Arena records and the Black Knights defeated Navy at Alumni Hall for the second straight year. Juniors Megan Dempsey and Therese Kelley wrote the headlines in the new millennium.

1999-2000: Therese Kelley ’01 becomes the second Army player to be selected to the Patriot League first team after leading Army in scoring, rebounding, blocks, free throw percentage and field goal percentage. Dempsey broke the USMA season mark for threepointers in draining 46 after having made just one her first two seasons to rank fourth on the all-time charts. Kelley became just the second Army player named to the Patriot League first team. The 6-2 forward topped Army and ranked among the league’s leaders in scoring, rebounding, blocks, free throw percentage and field goal percentage. 2000-01 Recording one of the greatest turnarounds in Division I women’s basketball history, the Black Knights began the season with a 4-0 record and their best start in 15 years. After capturing its own tournament for the first time in the program’s history, Army went on to post a 15-game mark of 13-2, its best at the Division I level. Army was the lone Patriot League team to beat defending champion Holy Cross, 87-71, the win coming at home. The victory helped Army capture the No. 4 seed at the league tournament where the Black Knights beat arch-rival Navy, 73-61, in the quarterfinal round. For the fifth time in school history, the Black Knights advanced to the league’s semifinal round where they were defeated 70-50 by eventual champion Holy Cross.

Senior Megan Dempsey closed out her career owning three-point field goal records on both the single-season and career records.
One of the highlights to the 2002-03 campaign was Army’s trip to Puerto Rico for the San Juan Shootout. While there, the Black Knights matched up with one of the most prolific teams in Division I women’s basketball in the former national champion Tennessee Lady Vols. The Black Knights finished the 2002-03 slate with an overall record of 15-16, which included a notable 72-69 victory over service-academy rival Air Force.

2001-02 With just two seniors, Army’s youngsters came together in the second half of Patriot League play. Sophomore Katie Macfarlane led the team in scoring (18.3 ppg.) and rebounding (10.2 rpg.) and was named to the all-Patriot League first team. Macfarlane, the lone league player to average a double-double, was also named to the AllMetropolitan second team. Army finished the season with an 11-18 overall record and 5-9 mark in the Patriot League. For the second time in as many years, the Black Knights defeated perennial Patriot League power Holy Cross, 68-67, at home in Christl Arena. Highlighting Army’s non-conference schedule was a trip to Notre Dame to face the defending national champions. The Black Knights fell, 89-57. Junior Christine Gassman was the team’s second-leading scorer at an increase of more than 8.0 ppg. from her sophomore campaign. Senior team captain Halaevalu Helu finished second in rebounding at 5.5 rpg. and senior Christina Canelli topped the team in assists (2.8 apg). 2002-03 Despite occupying the No. 6 seed in the Patriot League ranks, the Black Knights played the role of spoiler by upsetting two of the top teams in the conference. Army shocked No. 3 Lehigh and second-seeded American to advance to their first Patriot League title game since 1990-91. The Black Knights magical run came to end there, however, as top-seeded Holy Cross successfully defended its title with a 78-65 defeat of Army in the championship. Junior Katie Macfarlane continued her stellar play in the post, becoming the only player in the conference to average a “double-double.” A first team all-league selection for the second year in a row, Macfarlane averaged 17.7 points and 10.6 rebounds per outing. She was also selected to the All-Metropolitan second team. Macfarlane was one of three players on the Black Knight roster to start all 31 games, along with seniors Amy Saal and Christine Gassman.

The Black Knights concluded the 2004-05 campaign with an overall record of 15-13 and 8-6 in conference play. Army’s eight Patriot League victories were the most since 1993-94, in which the Black Knights also captured eight wins.

Army advanced to the championship game for just the third time in its 16 years as a member of the Patriot League, and first since 2003, after breezing past No. 8 Lafayette, 74-55, and No. 5 Colgate, 73-55, in the quarterfinals and semifinals, respectively. After sweeping their nemesis Holy Cross during the regular season for the first time, the Black Knights met the Crusaders in the Patriot League Championship game at West Point.

Army opened the 2006-07 campaign with a heavy heart, following the sudden passing of 2006 Patriot League “Coach of the Year” Maggie Dixon on April 6, 2006. Under first-year head coach Dave Magarity, who served as Dixon’s assistant in 2005-06 after a 23-year run as a Division I men’s basketball coach, the Black Knights set an Army Division I record for wins with a 24-6 mark. The team went 11-3 in Patriot League play for the second year in a row, while also matching the most road wins (11-3) in the program’s history. After dropping its season-opener to in the inaugural Maggie Dixon Classic on Nov. 12 at Christl Arena, the Black Knights spun off five straight wins. The Black Knights’ 72-48 win over Troy on Nov. 24 was a special night for junior guard Cara Enright, as she became just the 13th player in Army history to score 1,000 points. At the end of 2006-07, Enright stood fifth in Army history with 1,329 career points. Following a tough 65-54 loss at Seton Hall on Nov. 26, the Black Knights embarked on a recordbreaking, 13-game winning streak that spanned from Nov. 30 thru Jan. 16. During that stretch, Army knocked off Colgate, Holy Cross, Lehigh and American to start conference play with a 4-0 record. Unfortunately, the end of Army’s run came at the hands of Navy on Jan. 21 at Christl Arena. However, the Black Knights got revenge for that loss by winning the annual Army-Navy “Star” game less than a month later in Annapolis, Md. Army’s 11-3 conference record was enough to earn the Black Knights the second seed heading into the Patriot League Tournament at Navy’s Alumni Hall. Army’s record-breaking season came to an end with a 57-53 loss to Lehigh on March 3, 2007 in the opening round of the tournament. Enright (first team) and sophomore guard Alex McGuire (second team) earned All-Patriot League honors at the end of the season. Enright was also a first team All-Metropolitan Area honoree, while Magarity picked up “Coach of the Year” honors by the same organization. Army’s post-season honors included the Jimmy “V” Foundation Comeback Award, AT & T National Sportsmanship Award and Patriot League Sportsmanship Award. 2007-08 Facing one of its toughest schedules in recent memory, Army put together its fourth-straight

winning season with an 18-12 mark. The Black Knights went 9-5 record to tie Lehigh for third in the final Patriot League standings. A crop of four talented seniors, a budding junior class and a pair of rookies that played like veterans helped Army to a successful second season under head coach Dave Magarity. The Black Knights faced four 2006-07 NCAA Tournament teams, highlighted by meetings with then-No. 1 Connecticut in Hartford, Conn., and thenNo. 3 Rugters at Madison Square Garden as a part of the Maggie Dixon Classic. Army kicked off Patriot League play with a pair of home wins over Colgate and Holy Cross before heading out on the road for three straight contests. The team continued to have an up-anddown conference run, but it did include sweeps of Holy Cross, Lafayette, Colgate and archrival Navy throughout the year. Army nabbed the fourth seed heading in to the Patriot League Tournament, which was held at West Point’s Christl Arena for the second time in three years. Army drew Bucknell in the quarterfinals, a team that the Black Knights had fallen against just seven days prior in the regular season finale. Despite a sparkling 25-point effort from senior guard Cara Enright in what was her final game as a Black Knight, Army dropped a 5047 heartbreaker in overtime on a Bucknell buzzerbeater. Enright (second team), junior guard Alex McGuire (first team) and freshman forward Erin Anothony (rookie team) earned all-league status. Senior guard Margaree King also earned Patriot League Defensive Player of the Year plaudits. 2008-09 Army rebounded from a tough 1-4 start to win nine of its next 10 games, beginning with a crucial 54-44 win at rival Air Force during a Thanksgiving trip to Colorado. The Black Knights’ lone loss between Nov. 29 and Jan. 10 came to nationally ranked Rutgers at the Maggie Dixon Classic on Dec. 14 at Madison Square Garden. The Black Knights closed out non-conference play with an 11-6 mark. A 3-4 record during the first half of Patriot League play left the Black Knights in the middle of the pack. The team rebounded, however, to go 5-2 during the second half of conference play to salvage a tie for third in the final league standings. That final run included the Black Knights’ fifth-straight “Star” game win (58-50) over Navy on Feb. 21 in Annapolis. At the close of the regular-season slate, Army found itself in a four-way tie with Bucknell, Navy and Holy Cross for third place. After exhausting all tiebreakers, the Black Knights played as the No. 5 seed in the Patriot League Tournament, which topseeded Lehigh hosted at Stabler Arena. Army drew No. 4 Holy Cross in the first round and sent the Crusaders packing following a 54-47 win. Appearing in the semifinals for the first time since winning the title in 2005-06, Army’s season came to an end to the host Mountain Hawks (61-42). Then-sophomore point guard Nalini Hawkins poured in 20-plus points in both games and was named to the All-Tournament Team. Senior G Alex McGuire earned first team allleague honors, while sophomore F Erin Anthony was named to the second team and also became the first Army women’s basketball player to be named Scholar-Athlete of the Year.

MAJ. GENERAL PHILIP H. DRAPER AWARD Established in 1993, the Draper Award is given annually to the Most Valuable Player of the Army women’s basketball team and is named in honor of Philip Draper. A 1929 West Point graduate, Draper spent nearly three decades on the Banks of the Hudson, serving two tours and teaching French before returning from 1951-53 as the Graduate Manager of Athletics. Draper’s son, Stephen, also graduated from West Point in 1964. His wife, Lucy, was instrumental in the passage of the federal legislation to admit women into the gates at five national service academies. The family stayed at West Point until they had the opportunity to witness the first female cadets sworn in at Trophy Point in 1976. This award is funded by the Draper family and was presented for the first time at the graduation awards convocation, where it continues to be awarded today, in 1994. 2009 2008 2007 2006 2005 2004 2003 2002 2001

2009-10 WOMEN’S BASKETBALL MEDIA GUIDE ARMY ALL-AMERICANS SELECTED BY THE AMERICAN WOMEN’S SPORT FEDERATION In 1984, Pam Pearson became the first Army women’s basketball player to earn All-America honors when she was selected to the second team. During that season, Pearson became Army’s all-time leading scorer and top rebounder for a sophomore, scoring 332 points and grabbing 314 boards. The next season, Pearson repeated as a second team selection and was joined by Julie DelGiorno, who was an honorable mention. Classmates, DelGiorno became the second-highest scorer as a junior and Pearson became the third, with 418 and 417 points, respectively. Bettering her mark in rebounding, Pearson grabbed 317 boards to lead all juniors. Ending her career at Army, Pearson became the all-time leader in rebounding with 881 boards and at the time ranked fourth on the alltime scoring list with 1,010 career points. As a senior in 1986, DelGiorno became Army’s second all-time leading scorer (1,270) and the school’s career rebounding leader (827) on her way to being named second team All-America. Joining her was Laurie Goetz, who was selected to the third team after she scored 267 points and averaged 9.9 rebounds as a junior. After being selected to the fourth team in 1991, Kim Kawamoto was chosen to the third team her senior. The most recent Black Knight to be named an All-America, Lisa Russell earned the honor in 1993 when she was selected to the third team. As a sophomore that year, she led the team with 492 points. In just three seasons, Russell became Army’s second-leading scorer with 1,411 points.

The mission of the U.S. Military Academy is to educate, train, and inspire the Corps of Cadets so that each graduate is a commissioned leader of character committed to the values of Duty, Honor, Country; professional growth throughout a career as an officer in the U.S. Army; and a lifetime of selfless service to the Nation. Founded on March 16, 1802, the Academy celebrated its Bicentennial in 2002. But West Point’s role in America’s history dates to the Revolutionary War, when both sides realized the strategic importance of the commanding plateau on the west bank of the Hudson River. Gen. George Washington considered West Point to be the most strategic position in America. He personally selected Thaddeus Kosciuszko, one of the heroes of Saratoga, to design the fortifications in 1778 after problems arose with French engineers originally placed in charge of the design. In 1779, General Washington transferred his headquarters to West Point. Continental soldiers built forts, batteries and defensive barriers. A 100-ton iron chain was extended across the Hudson to control river traffic. Today, several links from that chain are arranged at Trophy Point as a reminder of West Point’s original fortifications. In 1802 President Thomas Jefferson signed the legislation establishing the U.S. Military Academy to create an institution devoted to the arts and sciences of warfare. This effectively eliminated America’s wartime reliance on foreign engineers and artillerists. West Point became the nation’s first engineering school and served as the model for engineering programs which were eventually established at other colleges. Col. Sylvanus Thayer, the “Father of the Military Academy,” served as Superintendent from 1817 through 1833. He upgraded academic standards, instilled military discipline and emphasized honorable conduct. Early graduates were largely responsible for the construction of the nation’s initial railway lines, bridges, harbors, and roads. Although the curriculum maintains its focus on engineering, in recent decades the program of instruction has markedly changed, providing cadets a selection of more than 40 majors. This tradition of academic and military excellence, guided by a demanding standard of moral and ethical conduct, remains the cornerstone of the West Point experience. It is said at West Point that “much of the history we teach was made by those people we taught.” The Academy has produced famous leaders throughout its illustrious past…Civil War Generals Grant, Sherman, Lee, and Jackson, to name but a few. In World War I, 34 of the 38 corps and division commanders were graduates. World War II would see many graduates reach brigadier general or higher, to include Eisenhower, MacArthur, Bradley and Patton. In more recent conflicts, MacArthur, Ridgway, Westmoreland, Abrams, Schwarzkopf and Abizaid were in command. Academy graduates have also excelled in air and space exploration, and countless others went on from military service to become leaders in medicine, law, business, religion and science. Since its founding, the Military Academy fulfills the same mission as it always has . . . to educate, train, and inspire the Corps of Cadets. It accomplishes this mission by developing cadets in three essential areas: intellectual, physical and military. These developmental paths are balanced and fully integrated into the daily life of each young man and woman at the Academy. Intellectual growth is fostered through an academic curriculum that provides a broad liberal education in the arts and sciences. The electives program builds upon the foundation of the core, allowing cadets to develop even greater competence in selected areas. In addition, the fields-of-study and majors nurture the development of creativity, critical thinking, and self-directed learning, essential characteristics of 21st century officers. The four-year academic experience leads to a bachelor of science degree and a commission as a second lieutenant in the Army.
Physical development is achieved through a rigorous athletic and physical education program. Each cadet participates at the intercollegiate, club or intramural level each semester. This readies the cadet for the physical demands of military life and helps teach good judgment and self-discipline, even while under mental and physical stress. Military development begins with the cadet’s first day at West Point. Most military training takes place during the summer, with new cadets undergoing Cadet Basic Training, or Beast Barracks, their first year, followed the second summer by Cadet Field Training. Cadets spend their third and fourth summers serving in active Army units around the world; attending specialty training such as airborne, air assault or northern warfare or helping to train the first- and second-year cadets. The Cadet Leader Development System seeks to give the cadets increasing responsibility until they are ready to receive their commissions and assume their duties as leaders in today’s Army. Moral and ethical values guide cadets throughout their four years at West Point. Commitment to the Academy’s “Bedrock Values,” based on integrity and respect for the dignity of others, begins on the first day. Integrity is reflected in the Cadet Honor Code which states: “A cadet will not lie, cheat, steal, or tolerate those who do.” Respect denotes that cadets treat others with the same respect and dignity they themselves would expect. At West Point, it is not enough to train leaders—they must be leaders of character. Admission is keenly competitive and is open to young men and women from all states and territories and from every socioeconomic level. Prospective cadets must receive a nomination by a member of Congress or from the Department of the Army. The Academy seeks candidates who possess records of success in academics, athletics and leadership indicative of well-rounded individuals. Although the life of a cadet is demanding, there remains an array of club activities ranging from golf, skiing, boxing, crew and orienteering to such organizations as the cadet radio station, Habitat for Humanity and Big Brothers-Big Sisters. Additionally, the U.S. Corps of Cadets hosts a Special Olympics event each spring. Today’s Military Academy is a vastly different institution from the small academy legislated into being by Congress in 1802. Originally just 1,800 acres, the Academy has grown to more than 16,000 acres. The first graduating class numbered just two men; today’s classes graduate more than 900 new officers annually, both men and women, who are prepared for leadership roles within the Army. With the expansion of knowledge and the changing needs of the United States Army and the nation, life at West Point has changed to keep pace. Ever mindful of its rich heritage, the U.S. Military Academy is developing leaders for tomorrow, and its focus remains the national needs of the 21st century.

Culture Human Behavior
Long recognized as one of the premier academic institutions in the United States, the U.S. Military Academy provides a challenging curriculum that culminates in a bachelor of science degree upon graduation. More than 25 fields of study and 19 optional academic majors are available to cadets as West Point strives to educate and train the Corps of Cadets so that each graduate shall have the attributes essential to professional growth as an officer in the regular Army. The USMA curriculum is also geared toward providing West Point graduates with an intellectual foundation for increasing responsibility (as they ascend the ranks) through a balanced undergraduate education. The Academy’s highly competitive academic environment, coupled with its broad-based academic curriculum, has helped West Point rank fourth nationally in the number of both Rhodes Scholars and Hertz Scholars that it has produced. The West Point curriculum is divided into three portions - core courses, an engineering sequence and a field of study. Cadets are required to take 26 core courses plus five additional classes in one of seven engineering sequences (mechanical, electrical, civil, nuclear, systems, computer or environmental). Beginning with the first semester of the junior year, cadets begin to take electives for their chosen field of study. Fields of study require completion of nine additional courses, bringing to 40 the number of classes a cadet must pass in order to receive a degree. The selection of an optional major involves anywhere from one to four - usually three - additional courses above and beyond the nine field of study electives. This will allow the Cadet to expand his or her realm of study within a chosen discipline. Physical education and military science courses round out the challenging curriculum. Cadets are required to incorporate classes from both disciplines into each semester’s class schedule, creating a standard six-course load for each academic term.

2009-10 WOMEN’S BASKETBALL MEDIA GUIDE OFFICE OF THE DIRECTORATE OF INTERCOLLEGIATE ATHLETICS KEVIN ANDERSON Director of Athletics Since Kevin Anderson was introduced as Army’s Director of Athletics on Dec. 13, 2004, West Point’s intercollegiate athletic program has enjoyed immense success both on and off the “fields of friendly strife.” Boasting more than two decades of leadership and experience, Anderson departed his post as executive associate athletic director at Oregon State University to accept the challenge of re-invigorating Army’s proud athletic program. The veteran administrator has played a large role in accomplishing that goal during his five years along the banks of the Hudson. In that time, Army has sent 19 intercollegiate athletic teams to the NCAAs, captured its first National Championship in more than 50 years, witnessed the revitalization of its hockey and men’s basketball programs, and experienced unparalleled success in several others, such as baseball, women’s volleyball, women’s tennis and women’s basketball. A year ago, Army’s women’s soccer team became West Point’s ninth different intercollegiate program to advance to the NCAAs under Anderson’s watch, while the baseball team reached a regional final for the first time in school history. During the 2004-05 academic year, Anderson’s first at West Point, Army’s athletic program won a National Championship in rifle, sent a record seven teams to postseason appearances, defeated Navy in the year-long series for the first time since 1978 and forged an overall winning percentage of .582. It marked Army’s finest overall performance in more than a decade. Seventeen of Army’s 25 intercollegiate teams carved records of .500 or better that year as the Black Knights put forth their highest year-long winning percentage since a .604 effort in 1993-94. In addition, Army reclaimed the Patriot League’s Presidents’ Cup—signifying the league’s all-sports champion—for the first time since 1997. Army sent its rifle, gymnastics, baseball, lacrosse, men’s tennis, women’s tennis and golf squads to postseason play, surpassing the previous standard of six teams in NCAA action. Six of Army’s eight spring teams won Patriot League titles that year.
The Anderson Family: Kevin, Moira, Chauncey, Olivia and Michaela
Army’s success opposite Navy snapped a 27-year drought in the all-sports rivalry, giving the Black Knights their first series win over Navy since going 9-8-1 (.528) in 1977-78. The Black Knights used their 2004-05 success as a springboard to continued outstanding performances in 2005-06. Army’s fall and winter teams combined to forge back-to-back winning records for the first time since 199394. Additionally, four Army teams earned NCAA Tournament appearances in 2005-06, highlighted by the women’s basketball team, which earned the Academy’s first postseason berth at the Division I level. In 2006-07, Anderson presided over a resurgence of Army’s men’s basketball and hockey programs, as well as the continued success of the Black Knights’ women’s basketball squad, which set a single season school record for victories at the Division I level. All three programs flourished again the following year with hockey earning its first Atlantic Hockey Association regular-season crown and the men’s basketball squad advancing in the Patriot League postseason for the second straight year, a first since 1995 and 1996. Additionally, a young Black Knights’ baseball team captured its third regular season Patriot League championship in five years and Army’s women’s tennis team earned its fourth consecutive conference championship and accompanying NCAA berth. Three Army teams traveled to the NCAAs last season, headlined by the women’s soccer and baseball squads. The Black Knights’ baseball team gained national attention by reaching the finals of the Austin Regional and nearly upsetting national top seed and NCAA runnerup Texas in a championship game. Off the field, construction of the Foley Athletic Center, a spacious indoor practice facility for football, was completed in the winter of 2007. During Anderson’s time at West Point, Randall Hall, which houses offices, locker rooms and team rooms for men’s and women’s basketball, as well as luxury suites that overlook historic Michie Stadium, was also unveiled. Army’s fabled football home received additional state-of-the-art amenities last summer with the installation of a new FieldTurf playing surface and a sparkling 30-foot-by-50-foot scoreboard, complete with a 20-foot-by-50-foot high-definition video board. In the last year alone, Anderson led the search that resulted in the hiring of Rich Ellerson as Army’s 36th head football coach. He was also instrumental in negotiating a broadcast extension with CBS Sports to televise the ArmyNavy football game to 2018, a new national television deal for Army’s football program, separate contracts with three different cities to serve as host for future Army-Navy games, and a landmark agreement with the New York Yankees that will result in Army’s football team playing six games over the next years at Yankee Stadium. As part of the deal, Army will battle Notre Dame next fall in the first college football game to be played at the Yankees’ majestic new home. Prior to his busy 2008-09 academic year, Anderson brokered major broadcast agreements for Army’s football program with ESPN and WABC Radio (770-AM), as well as aligning the Black Knights’ athletics teams with Nike, as part of a significant apparel deal, and Learfield Sports Properties. The Army “A” Club has continued to flourish under Anderson’s leadership, establishing school records for annual giving during each of his four years at the Academy. During his time at Oregon State, Anderson directed the athletic department’s external operations, to include marketing and promotions, sports information, ticket operations and the Beaver Athletic Student Fund. He also oversaw Oregon State’s highly successful football, men’s basketball and baseball programs, leading the search and recruitment for head football coach Mike Riley. Anderson, who ranks as the first African-American to hold the position of director of athletics at West Point, was
www.goARMYsports.com
a member of an OSU management staff that balanced the athletic department’s budget for the first time in nearly 15 years. Anderson took residence in Corvallis, Ore., in December 2002 after serving as executive associate athletic director for external affairs at the University of California. He joined the California staff in November 1997 as assistant athletic director for annual programs and was promoted to associate athletic director for development, tickets and the Bears’ baseball team in March 1999. At California, Anderson oversaw all fundraising matters involving capital giving and capital projects, as well as ticketing operations. He also functioned as the primary major gift officer for the athletic department. Under his leadership, California raised more than $5 million annually, including a record number of funds in fiscal years 2001 and 2002. Anderson also headed efforts to raise money for a renovation of California’s Memorial Football Stadium. Before accepting his position with the Golden Bears, Anderson served as area executive director of the YMCA of the East Bay from 1995 to 1997. He was director of annual giving with Stanford University’s athletic department from 1993 to 1995. While at Stanford, Anderson worked with the Stanford University Provost, former Secretary of State Condoleezza Rice. Anderson served as director of development, marketing and communications of the San Francisco Education Fund (1990-93) and was Northern California development director for the United Negro Fund (1989-90). He was also a manager with the Xerox Corporation from 1980 through 1989. Anderson graduated from San Francisco State University in 1979 with a bachelor’s degree in political science. He is also a 1981 graduate of the Xerox Corporation’s New Manager School and the Xerox Marketing School in 1986. He completed the executive management program at the Sports Management Institute in 1995. In addition to his duties at West Point, Anderson has served as chairman for the National Association of Collegiate Directors of Athletics (NACDA) Division I-A Athletic Directors McClendon Minority Scholarship Steering Committee and is a member of the NCAA’s Basketball Academic Enhancement Group. In September, he became chairman of the Division I Men’s Basketball Issues Committee. Most recently, Anderson was elected Third Vice President of NACDA in June. Kevin and his wife, Moira, have four children: daughters, Olivia and Michaela; and sons, Kevin Jr. and Chauncey.

2009-10 WOMEN’S BASKETBALL MEDIA GUIDE DISTINGUISHED GRADUATES
BORMAN
GRANT
Robert E. Lee ’29 The Academy’s ninth Superintendent (1852-55), Lee was a model cadet during his four years at West Point. He graduated second in his class and never earned a single demerit during his four years at the Academy. At the beginning of the Civil War, he was selected to serve as Commanding General of the Army, but instead resigned his commission and was named General-In-Chief of the Confederate Army from 1861 to 1865. Lee’s surrender to Ulysses S. Grant (USMA 1843), at Appomattox Court House, Va., ended the Civil War. Fort Lee, Va., was named in his honor. Ulysses S. Grant ’43 Grant distinguished himself during the Civil War at the Battle of Vicksburg in 1863; his victory secured control of the Mississippi River for the Union. President Abe Lincoln later appointed him Commanding General of the Army in March 1864. On April 9, 1865, at Appomattox Court House, Va., Robert E. Lee (USMA 1829) surrendered the Army of Northern Virginia to him, ending the Civil War. Grant later served as the 18th President of the United States from 1869 to 1877. Today, his image graces the $50 bill. John J. Pershing ’86 Considered the second most senior officer in Army history, behind only George Washington, Pershing served as commander of the American Expeditionary Force during World War I. The two-million-plus troops of the AEF made a decisive contribution to the defeat of Imperial Germany. Pershing’s abilities as a leader distinguished him among European commanders, and through repeated successes on the battlefield, promoted American prestige around the world. He served as Army Chief of Staff in 1921, and was named General of the Armies of the United States upon his retirement in 1924. Douglas MacArthur ’03 After World War I, MacArthur returned to West Point to serve as the Academy’s 31st Superintendent from 1919 to 1922. During that time, he

was responsible for the revitalization of the Academy. He was later promoted to General of the Army and served as Supreme Allied Commander in the Pacific Theater during World War II. During that time, he received the Medal of Honor for leading defense preparation and operations on the Philippine Islands. He later served as Supreme Allied Commander, Japan, and as commander, United Nations Command in the Far East. He was one of only five officers to be promoted to General of the Army (five stars). George S. Patton Jr. ’09 “Old Blood and Guts,” Patton was one of the most colorful commanders in the Army. During World War II the famed commander of the 2nd Armored Division and later the Third Army displayed courage and daring as prominently as the pair of ivory handled revolvers he wore. Patton accomplished one of the most remarkable feats in military history in December 1944, when he quickly turned the Third Army northward to reinforce the Allied southern flank against the German attack in the Battle of the Bulge. The General’s doctrine of aggressive employment of massive armor forces continue to prove themselves in combat arenas around the world. Omar N. Bradley ’15 During his career, Bradley earned a reputation as one of the best infantry commanders in World War II. He commanded the 82nd Airborne and 28th Infantry Divisions before going on to command the 1st Army and the 12th Army Group. After the war he served as Army Chief of Staff from 1948 to 1949 and served as the first Chairman of the Joint Chiefs of Staff from 1949 to 1953. He was the last Army officer to be promoted to General of the Army (five stars), and the Bradley fighting vehicle is named in his honor. Dwight D. Eisenhower ’15 During World War II, Eisenhower served as Supreme Commander of Allied Forces Europe from 1943 to 1944, during which he led the D-Day invasion of Europe. During that time, he was

PERSPECTIVES “The training and education I received at West Point, the rich experiences of living the cadet life and playing Army basketball taught me many skills and helped me develop many behaviors and attitudes that have been invaluable to me as a corporate officer and a business owner. The cadet and athlete experiences taught me to accept responsibility willingly and to lead when there is a leadership void or chaos. I also learned to think and act quickly and confidently, and to be flexible and to embrace change as the world around us (political, social and professional) continues to morph at an ever increasing pace.” -Dena Caradimitropoulo ’81
“West Point has really given me the best opportunities in every aspect of life. I’m able to play Division I basketball, get an amazing education, develop my skills as a leader, and build great friendships and relationships with teammates, coaches, other cadets, and staff and faculty. The amazing opportunities available while attending West Point and after graduation are unlike anything other college students will ever encounter.” -Megan Evans ’09
“The West Point basketball program attracts high-caliber individuals, including West Point staff and faculty. While a big focus is on winning basketball games, coaches, academy staff and faculty demanded academic and military excellence as well. As a result of these high expectations, players graduate as confident and well-rounded individuals with the tools necessary to balance the challenges to come.” -Katie Macfarlane ’04
“The journey through West Point has pushed me to the limit and has been one of the most rewarding experiences of my life. You learn to do things that you never thought you could, and learn more about yourself in the process.” -Cara Enright ’08
“Attending West Point and being a part of the basketball team definitely helped prepare me for the future. The West Point experience breaks down cadets only to build them back up, one challenge at a time. The selfknowledge that this journey creates is invaluable and something that has helped me throughout my life. Being a member of the basketball team for four years not only added to this self-knowledge process, but also further instilled in me that whether you are on an athletic team, in a military unit, or a member of an organization, it is up to us to figure out what role we play in the success of that group.” -Melody Smith ’84
“West Point continues to be the toughest, yet most rewarding experience in my life. Everyday proves to be a challenge in every aspect, but this has pushed me to accomplish things I never thought possible. I’m thankful every day that I made the decision to attend West Point. Also, the bonds I’ve formed with my peers are incomparable to any other university.” -Courtney Wright ’09
“Behind these grey walls, you meet people full of life and full of a love for what they are doing. These people are willing to do whatever is necessary to help each other. At no other place else can you find that camaraderie, that genuine caring, and I am grateful I have gotten to be a part of it.” -Anna Wilson ’08
COACHES ON WEST POINT “As a young coach, I feel very fortunate to have the opportunity to grow at a place with such strong traditions and values. I have learned so much beyond the X’s and O’s of basketball at West Point. I am impressed with how these young cadets balance their academic, physical, military and social areas on a daily basis. What other university in the country can you meet Coach Krzyzewski or Coach Bob Knight one day and General Schwarzkopf the next?” - Assistant Coach Maureen Magarity
“Moving to West Point after living on the West Coast for my entire life has definitely been n a growing experience for myself as well as my husband (Brett). Being able to interactt with these unique, intelligent, and very diverse ‘leaders of character’ on a daily basis hass d given me the opportunity to learn from their experiences. The hardships, challenges, and e adversity these young cadets face here at the Academy is something that I defiantly admire as well as respect tremendously. I am looking forward to my future here at West Point as a coach, teacher, and role model.” -Assistant Coach Shandrika Lee-Gerch
“When I was given the opportunity to coach at West Point, I was both intrigued and ecstatic to accept the position. Working with these incredible young women every day, seeing what they go through and the things they accomplish just on a daily basis leaves me awe struck sometimes. There is no better institution for academic excellence, athletics, leadership and camaraderie in the world. It is a privilege to coach at such an amazing institution.” - Assistant Coach Erin Mills
“During my coaching career, it was always special when my teams competed at West Point. It was truly a thrill to bring them to the Academy. In my fourth season here, it’s hard to explain what an honor it is for me to be coaching these extraordinary cadet-athletes at one of the finest universities in the world. I wouldn’t trade my time spent at West Point for anything.” - Head Coach Dave Magarity
CADET LIFE: AN ADVENTURE AWAITS In accordance with the Academy mission, Cadets have the chance to broaden their horizons and push themselves to new heights both physically and mentally while at West Point. The Academy mission is “To educate, train, and inspire the Corps of Cadets so that each graduate is a commissioned leader of character committed to the values of Duty, Honor, Country and prepared for a career of professional excellence and service to the Nation as an officer in the United States Army.� The United States Corps of Cadets comprises over 4,400 men and women pursuing an undergraduate education and a commission in the United States Army. They are organized into 32 cadet companies, which are grouped into battalions (four each), regiments (two battalions each), and the Corps (four regiments). The leadership opportunities and the building of character that happens at West Point in endless. Cadets run the Corps through their Chain of Command. First Class (fourth year) cadets fulfill roles as First Captain (or Corps commander), Regimental Commanders, Battalion Commanders, Company Commanders, and Platoon Leaders. Other First Class cadets serve in various staff capacities at the Brigade, Regiment, Battalion, Company, and Platoon levels. Second Class (third year) cadets serve as cadet noncommissioned officers, principally as Squad Leaders supervising the lower two classes of cadets. Third Class (second year) cadets serve as Team Leaders, each providing personal oversight of one or two Fourth Class (first year) cadets. Beyond the fields of friendly strife, cadets can take advantage of all that the Hudson Valley has to offer. West Point is also just an hour-long train ride from New York City, allowing weekends to entertain Broadway plays, Central Park and all that the Big Apple has to offer.
