THE UNITED STATES MILITARY ACADEMY
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.
WEST POINT The United States Military Academy is renowned because of its historic and distinguished reputation as a military academy, and as a leading, progressive institution of higher education. Made legendary in books and movies produced over the years, the Academy’s “Long Gray Line” of graduates includes some of our nation’s most famous and influential men: Ulysses S. Grant, Robert E. Lee, Thomas “Stonewall” Jackson, George S. Patton, Omar Bradley, Douglas MacArthur, Dwight Eisenhower and Norman Schwarzkopf. Because of this superb education and leadership experience, West Point graduates historically have been sought for high level civilian and military leadership positions. Their numbers include two U.S. presidents, several ambassadors, state governors, legislators, judges, cabinet members, educators, astronauts and corporate executives. Today, West Point continues to provide hundreds of young men and women the unique opportunity to develop physically, ethically and intellectually while building a foundation for an exciting, challenging and rewarding career as an Army officer in the service of our nation. Cadets have much more responsibility in running the Academy than students in most other colleges or universities. It adds to the leadership experience. Cadets succeed at West Point because of the support they receive from the staff and faculty. After all, many faculty members are West Point graduates and understand the challenge cadets face on a daily basis. They also serve as ideal role models, showing cadets what Army life is like. The U.S. Military Academy’s primary strength is its ability to develop leaders of character who are committed to “Duty, Honor, Country” and selfless service to our nation.

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.
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).
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 promoted to General of the Army (five stars). After the war, he served as Army Chief of Staff from 1945 to 1948 and was named President of Columbia University in 1948. He served as the 34th President of the United States from 1953 to 1961 and was one of only five officers to be promoted to General of the Army (five stars).
As Commander-in-Chief, United States Central Command from 1988 to 1991, Schwarzkopf’s command ultimately responded to Iraq’s invasion of Kuwait with the largest U.S. deployment since the Vietnam War, including portions of the Navy, Air Force, and Marine Corps as well as units from dozens of nations around the world. After retiring, Schwartzkopf received the Presidential Medal of Freedom.
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.
GEORGE W. GOETHALS ’80 Goethals became an architect and was builder of the Panama Canal, 1904 TO 1914.
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.
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.
ALEXANDER M. HAIG JR. ’47 Haig served as Chief of Staff to President Richard Nixon from 1973 to 1974; Supreme Allied Commander in Europe 1974 to 1979; President of United Technologies Corporation 1980 to 1981 and Secretary of State during the Reagan administration from 1981 to 1982.
FRANK BORMAN ’50 An astronaut from 1962 to 1970, Borman commanded the first circumlunar flight of the earth. He later served as President of Eastern Airlines.
FIDEL V. RAMOS ’50 One of the Academy’s international cadets, Ramos served as a Philippine Army officer after graduation. He eventually became the country’s military Chief of Staff and later Secretary of National Defense. He also served as President of the Republic of the Philippines from 1992 to 1998.
EDWIN E. ALDRIN ’51 An astronaut from 1963 to 1972, Aldrin participated in the first manned lunar landing with Michael Collins (USMA ’52) and was the second man to walk on the moon.
EDWARD WHITE ’52 An astronaut from 1962 to 1967, White was the first man to walk in space and was one of the three astronauts killed in the Apollo I disaster in 1967.
PETER M. DAWKINS ’59 Dawkins was Cadet Brigade Commander (First Captain of the U.S. Corps of Cadets) as a senior and became the third Heisman Trophy winner in Army football history. He later served as chairman and CEO of Primerica.
JAMES V. KIMSEY ’62 Kimsey was the founding chairman of America Online, and was named chairman emeritus in 1996. He founded the Kimsey Foundation in 1996.
MICHAEL W. KRZYZEWSKI ’69 Krzyzewski served as head basketball coach at West Point from 1974 to 1979 before assuming similar duties at Duke University. Krzyzewski has led the Blue Devils to three national championships and was inducted into the Basketball Hall of Fame in October 2001. He coached the U.S. at the 2008 Olympics in Beijing.
RAYMOND T. ODIERNO ‘76 Odierno commanded the 4th Infantry Division during the fall of 2003 which, along with Special Forces units, captured Saddam Hussein in December of that year. Odierno helped plan and coordinate the raid that netted Iraq’s fallen dictator.
ROBERT S. KIMBROUGH ’89 Kimbrough was named one of 11 new astronaut candidates by NASA in May 2004. Kimbrough ranks among Army Baseball’s career leaders in saves. A veteran of Desert Storm, he currently works for NASA in Houston as a flight simulation engineer and participated in a space shuttle mission last fall.

KIMSEY ATHLETIC CENTER
Nestled among several of West Point’s showcase athletic facilities is the massive 120,000-square-foot, four-story Kimsey Athletic Center. Adjacent to Kimsey Athletic Center is a turf practice field, allowing for more spacious area for Army’s teams to utilize. Kimsey Athletic Center is also the home to the Blaik Gallery and Kenna Hall of Army Sports, a thorough depiction of West Point’s rich athletics heritage.
The latest jewel in Army’s treasure trove of athletic facilities, Foley Athletic Center opened its doors two years ago, serving as the “winter home” of the Black Knights. The massive 77,000-square-foot structure provides Army’s lacrosse team, among others, with a state-of-the-art indoor practice facility, a place where the team can train in a climatecontrolled environment during the winter months and inclement weather days throughout the year. The facility contains a full 100yard playing field, along with full 10-yard end zones on both ends. Additionally, a five-yard buffer encircles the field. In all, the FieldTurf playing surface covers 130 yards in length. In addition, a 50-yard-by10-yard speed and agility room is housed in the sprawling training center. The project was made possible through the generosity of Mr. and Mrs. William Foley, who pledged a gift of $15 million towards the continuation of the “Margin of Excellence” facility upgrade project. The largest single donation in service academy history, the gift by the Foley family funded the design and construction of the facility that bears its name. The Foley Athletic Center represents Phase II of the “Margin of Excellence” facility upgrade which began in 2001.
FOLEY ATHLETIC CENTER
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-squarefoot cardiovascular room containing more than 25 pieces of equipment; a state-of-the-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; high-density 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 service countless Black Knight athletes simultaneously so they are able to realize their full potential on the “fields of friendly strife.”
STRENGTH & CONDITIONING
O’MEARA, MALEK, DAWKINS CLASS OF 1959 STRENGTH DEVELOPMENT CENTER An integral component in Army’s intercollegiate athletic program is the strength and conditioning department. The most visible sign of Army’s commitment in this area is the O’Meara, Malek, Dawkins, Class of 1959 Strength Development Center in Kimsey Athletic Center, one of the finest facilities in the nation. The monstrous 20,000-square-foot center is located on the second floor of Kimsey Athletic Center and features 30 tons of plates and dumbbells; 15 pieces of cardiovascular equipment, including six high-speed treadmills; a state-of-the-art weight training area with 16 rack and platform training stations, as well as a separate dumbbell area; and top-of-the-line Hammer strength equipment. Under the direction of Scott Swanson, the O’Meara, Malek, Dawkins, Class of 1959 Strength Development Center rivals any training facility in the country.
THE CENTER FOR ENHANCED PERFORMANCE The Center for Enhanced Performance (CEP) is a state of the art facility committed to developing the full potential of each cadet through comprehensive mental toughness and academic skills training. It offers three programs designed to maximize West Point cadet performance, as well as export these critical mental skills to the United States Army at large. The Performance Enhancement Program (PEP) is the nation’s most comprehensive training program for learning, practicing and mastering the intangible mental skills that underlie human performance; confidence despite setbacks, concentration amidst distractions, and composure under stress. Cadets participate in individual training sessions during free periods in their academic schedule, learning, and then applying the skills of imagery, attention control, energy management, and goal setting. Biofeedback training allows cadets to learn crucial self-regulation techniques, and sophisticated audio and video simulations of game and practice situations are used to facilitate mental rehearsal of specific physical, academic, or military skills. These training methods are derived from the field of applied sport psychology, where they are employed in the training of professional and Olympic athletes, but apply to every other area of human performance.
Nathan Zinsser at the ’10) works with Dr. Tyler Oates (USMA Performance. Center For Enhanced
The Academic Excellence Program provides instruction in academic support skills designed to help cadets succeed in the classroom. Three classes are offered throughout the academic year: 1) the Student Success Course, a 20 lesson course combining the study skills of textbook marking, note taking, test preparation and time management, with the mental skills such as attention control, confidence building, stress and energy management; 2) Reading Efficiency, a 10 lesson course designed to improve reading speed and comprehension through drill and utilization of modern computer technologies; and 3) Information Literacy and Critical Thinking, a 20-lesson course taught jointly with the USMA Library staff created to enhance problem-solving skills and critically read and evaluate research. The CEP Tutor Program organizes final exam preparation sessions at the end of each semester, and cadet tutors for nearly every academic course are available throughout the year. Most recently the CEP created the Military Enhancement Program (MEP), designed to apply the skills and techniques taught by the Performance Enhancement Program within a military context. MEP Training is now nested throughout the 47 months of the West Point experience. These programs are unique aids to the every member of the Corps of Cadets who seeks to achieve their full potential in academics, athletics and military training. The Center for Enhanced Performance is a powerful demonstration of the Academy’s commitment to provide the finest training available to the future leaders of the nation.
WHERE ARE THEY NOW? Since its founding two centuries ago, the U.S. Military Academy has accomplished its mission by developing cadets in four critical areas: intellectual, physical, military, and moral-ethical - a fouryear process called the “West Point Experience.” It remains committed to the task of producing commissioned leaders of character for America’s Army. Today, the Academy graduates more than 900 new officers annually, which represents approximately 25 percent of the new lieutenants required by the Army each year. Gen. Douglas MacArthur once said, “Upon the fields of friendly strife are sown the seeds that upon other fields, on other days, will bear the fruits of victory.” That statement is a testament to the high regard in which the Academy holds athletics and the role of a vibrant and competitive intercollegiate program. Great leaders such as Grant and Lee, Pershing and MacArthur, Eisenhower and Patton, Westmoreland and Schwarzkopf are among the more than 50,000 graduates of the U.S. Military Academy. Countless others have served society in the fields of medicine, law, business, politics, and science following their careers in uniform. Army’s great lacrosse tradition has produced its share of leaders both militarily and privately. Today’s Army lacrosse player is well-versed in “Duty, Honor, Country,” and is provided with all the tools to be leaders of character in the Army and in the business world.

“Working hard with each other everyday for four years built relationships that will last a lifetime, and it taught me what it truly means to be a part of a team. I wouldn’t trade my experience with Army Lacrosse for anything in the world, and I’m glad I will always be a part of this program.” – Lt. Jim Wagner (USMA ’05)

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.

The academic program at West Point Prep is a dynamic program, closely coordinated with the West Point curriculum. It is designed to tailor instruction to best meet the needs of the individual cadet candidate. One of the central goals of the academic program is to fully challenge all candidates while recognizing the diversity in their educational backgrounds. The school’s approach is to enhance the skills candidates already possess while providing a solid basis for improvement in needed areas. The academic program focuses on Mathematics and English. These broad areas provide the fundamental basis for academic success at West Point. Cadet candidates also receive instruction in study skills and time management through the Student Success Course. Rigorous concentration on these skills improves a student’s ability to grasp and retain information as well as to think critically and communicate clearly. All candidates are expected to work diligently to surpass course standards in all areas. Those candidates who do not perform to the course standards are counseled, given specific remedial actions to improve performance, and, in most cases, given an opportunity to remediate the material. Students who repeatedly fail to attain course standards may be disenrolled by the Commandant. Academic weeks are organized with “A” days
2011 Army Lacrosse 2011
and “B” days running alternately. This allows flexibility in scheduling required courses and for efficiency in the use of instructors and facilities. The academic year consists of four quarters, of 40 classroom days duration each. Grading is accomplished against standard objectives and criteria.Test results are not curved. All students who attain the same level of performance against the standard receive the same grade. USMAPS employs a system of “tracking” to challenge fully all cadet candidates. Based upon their performance on a series of initial diagnostic tests and, more importantly, on their performance halfway through the first quarter of classroom work, cadet candidates are placed into specialized English and mathematics tracks. This flexible academic approach allows candidates to improve in weak areas while continuing to enhance their strong areas. Tracks range in difficulty from Fundamental to Advanced Placement. During the academic year candidates can move between tracks, and upward movement is encouraged whenever possible. The Student Success Course is designed to give candidates the tools that will help them throughout their academic and military careers. The tools include: effective reading, notebook organization, note-taking (including mapping and clustering), goal-setting, time management, and memory devices. To reduce academic stress, class time is devoted to stress management and overcoming “test phobia.” Students

The purpose of the United States Military Academy Preparatory School is to prepare selected candidates for admission to West Point; providing focused academic, military and physical instruction in a moral-ethical military school environment in order to prepare and motivate candidates for success at the United States Military Academy. The U.S. Military Academy Preparatory School, known as USMAPS, the Prep School, or West Point Prep, was formally established in 1946, but the history of prepping of soldiers for West Point has been done since Congress enacted legislation in 1916 authorizing appointments for soldiers to West Point. The school exists today as an “avenue of opportunity” to a carefully selected group of soldiers and civilians by providing them the academic, leadership and physical skills that will prepare them for success as cadets at the United States Military Academy. Located at Fort Monmouth, New Jersey, West Point Prep prepares cadet candidates for West Point with a foundation that will last them beyond admission to the Academy and well into the future as leaders of character for the nation. West Point Prep is primarily an academic institution that accepts students and soldiers from diverse backgrounds and challenges them to meet and exceed West Point’s rigorous admission standards. As a military school with a career focus, West Point Prep also develops the foundation of professional and physical attributes needed for growth as an officer in the U.S. Army.
are expected to apply the techniques to their current classes. Successful people exhibit more than just strong aptitude; they also exhibit a positive attitude, take responsibility for their actions, progress steadily towards goals, and continually reevaluate their methods. Much of the Student Success Course is devoted to the study of successful behavior and students are encouraged to practice these methods as they develop their leadership style.The goal of the class is to offer lifelong benefits to cadet candidates. Cadet candidates are expected to obtain a “C” or better in each academic course for each quarter. To graduate, each candidate must obtain a “C” or better for each course in each quarter. In addition, they are expected to meet the established physical and military standards.

Morris Touchstone, once tread. A former assistant to Emmer, Alberici returned to the shores of the Hudson River after a nine-year stint as an assistant coach at Duke where he helped the Blue Devils tighten their grip as one of the nation’s premier lacrosse programs. Alberici became the 10th head coach in Army’s storied 90-year history in 2006, and was tasked to fill the big shoes left by his mentor, Emmer, who retired as college lacrosse’s all-time winningest coach in 2005. Alberici led Army to its first-ever Patriot League tournament title last season, defeating Navy, 11-8, in the championship contest. The Black Knights, who compiled a 6-0 conference record during the regular season for the first time, went on to upset No. 2-ranked Syracuse in the first round of the NCAA tournament. Alberici helped mold Garrett Thul into the national Rookie of the Year as the attackman set plebe records in goals and points.

defense allowed just four opponents to score over 10 goals en route to a 7.80 goals against average that ranked 10th in the country. Alberici also watched four of his players garner all-conference honors. In his first season as head coach, Alberici led the Black Knights to their second-straight appearance in the Patriot League Tournament Championship game. Two of his players – attackman John Walker and defenseman Matt Luyster – capped their Army careers with Honorable Mention All-America honors while leading the squad to its ninth-straight season with at least eight victories against one of the toughest schedules in the country. Alberici’s tenure at Duke coincided with the Blue Devils’ rise to national prominence, which culminated in their magical run to the Division I title contest in 2005, a game in which they fell 9-8 to top-ranked Johns Hopkins. Ranked second in the nation behind the Blue Jays for much of the spring, Duke forged a remarkable 17-3 ledger and established an NCAA record for victories in a single season.Two of Duke’s losses were one-goal defeats at the hands of Johns Hopkins, including an 11-10 double-overtime loss at JHU’s Homewood Field in early April.

Alberici’s duties at Duke included recruiting director, assisting with the daily administration of the program, serving as the Blue Devils’ defensive coordinator and coaching the team’s goalkeepers. After serving as offensive coordinator and working with Duke’s man-up offense during his first eight years, he assumed the roles of defensive coordinator and coach of the man-down defense during his final season. He was promoted to associate head coach in 1999. During Alberici’s nine years on head coach Mike Pressler’s staff, the Blue Devils forged a sparkling 96-47 (.671) record, made seven appearances in the NCAA Tournament – including a run of six straight postseason trips between 1997 and 2002 – and captured a pair of Atlantic Coast Conference titles (2001 and 2002). The Blue Devils reached the Final Four for the first time in 1997, Alberici’s initial year in Durham, before embarking on their remarkable postseason run in 2005. Under Alberici’s watchful eye, Duke ranked second in the nation in scoring defense, surrendering just 6.91 goals per game. Alberici spent the 1995 and 1996 seasons at West Point, and helped the Black Knights to a 10-5 showing
Alberici was named the 2008 Patriot League Coach of the Year after leading Army to a 9-6 record, including a 5-1 conference mark which was good enough to clinch the Patriot League regular season title and top-seed for the postseason tournament, hosted at Michie Stadium. Five Black Knights garnered All-Patriot League honors, including senior Adam Fullerton, who won his second-straight conference Goalkeeper of the Year award on his way to third-team All-America honors. Ranked as high as No. 8 during the season, Army finished the season No. 19 in the final USILA National Coaches Poll on the heels of a scoring defense that only allowed 7.13 goals per game, to rank sixth nationally. In 2007, Alberici guided the Black Knights through a roller coaster season, highlighted by a 6-1 start and an upset of No. 2 Syracuse in the Carrier Dome that marked the first time the Orange had ever lost at home in February. Ranked as high as No. 8 in the national polls during the campaign, the Black Knights would go on to qualify for their third-straight Patriot League Tournament to finish the season. His stalwart

HEAD COACH JOE ALBERICI 2010 Patriot League Champions
“There is no better institution in the country to get an education, to learn about leadership, or to learn about yourself than West Point. It is the kind of place that, if you choose to come here, you’ll be different when you leave. Certainly, there will be challenges, but you will have the strength of your teammates, your coaches and all those around you for support. If you are willing to meet those challenges head-on, you’ll be a better person for it. “I’m not sure there is a nobler thing than to serve your country. It says a lot about who you are.” - Joe Alberici and an NCAA appearance in 1996. Army won its final five games that season, including victories over Hofstra, Navy and Rutgers, to earn the Academy’s 12th postseason berth. A 1991 graduate of Alfred University, Alberici was a two-time lacrosse All-American in 1990 and 1991 and also garnered Academic All-America accolades as a senior. A four-year starter at attack, he set six school scoring records and led the Saxons to winning seasons in 1989, 1990 and 1991. A threetime team captain, Alberici led the entire nation, including all three divisions, in assists as a junior, garnering 78 helpers in 17 contests for a 4.6 assist per-game average. Following graduation, Alberici remained at his alma mater for two years in the role of graduate assistant coach, earning his master’s degree in education in 1993. He accepted his first head coaching assignment soon thereafter when he was named to the top post at SUNY Oneonta.
and four coaches) have been enshrined in the National Lacrosse Foundation Hall of Fame. Alberici served a term as an assistant coach for the U.S. National Lacrosse Team at the 2010 World Lacrosse Championships in Manchester, England, helping the Americans to the gold medal. In 2007, he was also appointed to the United States Intercollegiate Lacrosse Association (USILA) Board of Directors, the sport’s national governing body. Alberici and his wife, Petra, reside at West Point with their son, Maximus, and daughter, Isabella.
In 1994, the Dragons forged an 8-6 record and established a single-season school record for victories, earning Alberici Empire Lacrosse League Coach of the Year laurels. It was on the heels of that spectacular season that Alberici made the move to West Point. A native of Auburn, N.Y., Alberici was inducted into the Auburn High School Hall of Fame in 2008, joining his older brother, John and father, Gino, as enshrinees. In his present role as the face of Army’s storied program, Alberici has assumed control of a club that remains intertwined with the history of collegiate lacrosse. In 93 seasons, the Black Knights have amassed 716 victories, trailing only Johns Hopkins, Syracuse, Navy and Hobart in all-time wins at the Division I level. Army has produced eight national champions, while 12 men associated with the program (eight players

EIGHTH SEASON - NEW HAMPSHIRE ’96
22ND SEASON - CORTLAND STATE ’77 The longest tenured assistant coach at the Academy, Anthony “Mac” Diange is in his 22nd season with the Army lacrosse program and has been an integral part of its success. The veteran assistant, who was named the 2010 Assistant Coach of the Year by the Intercollegiate Men’s Lacrosse Coaches Association this past fall, will continue to run Army’s offense. Diange is also a top-notch recruiter with deep roots on Long Island and in the Hudson Valley. The Long Island native teamed with legendary coach Jack Emmer to bring stability and continuity to the Black Knights’ sideline when he joined the West Point staff in 1990 and continued his tenure at the Academy with the arrival of Joe Alberici as head coach prior to the start of the 2006 season. During his tenure at the Academy, Diange has tutored the two most prolific scorers in Army lacrosse history. Tim Pearson totaled 238 points from 1998-02 to eclipse the previous scoring record by 34. The three-time All-American also sits atop the career assist list with 142. Diange also guided John Walker during his standout career that culminated with 209 points (125 goals, 84 assists) and his second All-America honor in 2006. One of five finalists for the Tewaaraton Trophy – handed out annually to college lacrosse’s top player – during his senior campaign, Walker still ranks third in assists and fourth in goals. Over the last three seasons, Diange has seen Jeremy Boltus emerge onto the scene. Boltus enters his senior season ranked 12th on Army’s all-time points list (145) and fifth on the Black Knights’ all-time assists ledger (79). He will look to move up both rankings this season as he helps Army return to the NCAA tournament. Additionally, “Mac”, as he is widely known in lacrosse circles, has been a part of all 11 Patriot League titles the Academy has either won or shared, and has watched three of his attackmen and two midfielders earn the league’s Offensive Player of the Year award. Five of his other offensive threats started their careers off by earn Patriot League Rookie of the Year accolades as well. A total of 17 Army players have accorded All-America accolades during Diange’s term at West Point, including at least one in nine of the last 11 years. Diange arrived at West Point in 1990 following a nine-year stint on the Division III level as head lacrosse coach at SUNY Geneseo. While at the helm of the Blue Knights, Diange was named the State University of New York Athletic Conference (SUNYAC) Coach of the Year twice, in 1985 and again in 1989. He played a large role in popularizing the game of lacrosse in Western New York through the success of the program, compiling a 51-49 record during his tenure. In only his second season, he guided the squad to an 8-3 mark and the school’s first SUNYAC Championship. Diange is a 1977 graduate of SUNY Cortland, widely considered the cradle of college lacrosse coaching, where he earned a bachelor’s degree in physical education. A standout midfielder, he was a member of the Red Dragons’ 1975 Division II National Championship squad. He also spent one year as an assistant coach at Albany while earning a master’s degree in education.
Mike Murphy enters his eighth season along the banks of the Hudson River and sixth under head coach Joe Alberici after spending his first two campaigns assisting legendary head coach Jack Emmer. Under his mentorship, the Black Knights have consistently ranked among the best defensive teams both in the Patriot League and nationally, while he has also guided some of the most prolific goalkeepers in Academy history. Murphy has tutored the defense the last seven seasons and will continue in that role as defensive coordinator, as well as recruiting responsibilities along the East Coast. Last season, under Murphy’s direction, the Black Knights listed third in the Patriot League in scoring defense (9.31 gpg). Army held Syracuse to just eight goals in the Black Knights’ 9-8 upset victory over the two-time defending national champions in the first round of last season’s NCAA tournament. Murphy helped Bill Henderson win Patriot League Defensive Player of the Year honors. Henderson also collected All-Patriot League first-team plaudits and was tabbed an NCAA All-American (Honorable Mention). Tim Henderson, Bill’s younger brother, earned first-team honors as well. Bill Henderson and Army goalkeeper Tom Palesky both earned honorable mention All-America honors. The 2009 campaign saw Army finish third in the Patriot League in scoring defense (9.06 gpg) while two members of the unit were named all-conference selections. Bill Henderson lauded first-team honors, while younger brother Tim Henderson landed on the second team in his first season with the squad. In 2008, the Black Knights ranked sixth nationally in scoring defense, allowing only two teams to score more than 10 goals en route to a 7.13 goals per game average. First-team all-conference selection Adam Fullerton capped his career with third-team All-America honors and two-straight Patriot League Goalkeeper of the Year awards and was recently selected one of two goalkeepers on the US National Team that will compete at the FIL World Championships this coming summer. The 2008 season was also highlighted by two of his defensemen, seniors Jay Larson and Craig Massie, being named All-Patriot League honorees. In 2006, Murphy’s molding of senior Matt Luyster was made complete as he was named an honorable mention All-American, the first All-American under Murphy’s watch. Luyster was a first-team All-Patriot League selection and the Defensive Player of the Year in the conference, while Nick Doerr earned second-team all-league honors as well. Murphy also guided Fullerton when he was pressed into starting duty early into his freshman season and watched him run off seven consecutive victories in the cage, setting an Academy record for consecutive wins by a plebe goalie. In 2005, Army’s man-down defense ranked 14th in the country, killing off 81 percent of opponents’ EMOs. Goalkeeper Matt Darak also set an Academy record for saves in a single season as the Black Knights only allowed 165 goals during the campaign that saw Army qualify for the NCAA Tournament for the second consecutive season. Murphy came to the Academy after spending two seasons at Denison University in Granville, Ohio, where he was in charge of the Big Red’s defensive unit and face-off personnel. He also served as an assistant on Denison’s football coaching staff and held a position in the Department of Athletics, Physical Education and Recreation as an instructor. Prior to his work at Denison, the University of New Hampshire graduate served as head assistant coach/defensive coordinator at Wingate University from 19992001. The Beverly, Mass., native helped the Bulldogs to their first NCAA Division III National Semifinal appearance in school history as the squad posted a 27-17 record in Murphy’s three seasons on its sideline, while 14 players garnered All-Deep South honors. His 2001 defensive unit finished the season ranked among the national leaders in scoring defense (12th), winning percentage (7th) and goals-against average (10th).
A native of Massapequa Park, N.Y., Diange starred in football and lacrosse at Farmingdale High School and helped the gridders to the 1971 New York State Championship.
Murphy also enjoyed one-year stints at Pfeiffer University and Merrimack College after his graduation from New Hampshire in the spring of 1996, where he was a three-year letterman for the then-Division I Wildcats.
Diange and his wife, Janice, reside in Cornwall. They have three children: KellyLynn, Allison, and Joe.
Murphy and his wife Jennifer, who is an athletic trainer at Army, reside in Highland Falls, N.Y., with their son, Colin, born in 2010.

SEASON PREVIEW The Army lacrosse team enters the 2011 season looking to build upon the success the program achieved last spring. The Black Knights compiled an 11-6 overall record in 2010 en route to capturing the Patriot League regular season and tournament titles. Army, which earned the Patriot League’s automatic berth into the NCAA Tournament, went on to defeat two-time defending national champion Syracuse in the first round of the NCAAs. It marked the program’s first victory in the national tournament since 1993. On the hinges of one of the most successful seasons in recent memory, Army is predicted to repeat as Patriot League Champions and enters 2011 nationally ranked in both preseason polls. The Black Knights listed 12th in the USILA Coaches’ Poll and 13th in the Nike/Inside Lacrosse preseason ranking. Several key members of last season’s team return, including All-Americans Jeremy Boltus, Bill Henderson and Tom Palesky. The Black Knights also bring back Garrett Thul, who was named the 2010 Inside Lacrosse National Freshman of the Year after shattering Army freshman records for goals and points last spring. Boltus is Army’s do-everything attackman, who will continue his climb up the Academy’s career scoring charts as a senior in 2011. Henderson, Army’s top lock-down defenseman, is fully recovered from offseason surgery and is ready to go for his senior year. Palesky, whose name already appears in the Army record book for goalkeeper records, is poised to backstop the Black Knights’ defense once again. Army returns veterans in every major position group with Boltus and Thul leading the attackmen, senior Rob McCallion pacing the midfielders, Henderson spearheading the defensive effort, junior Tim Henderson starting as a long-stick midfielder and Palesky in goal. While the expectations for this season’s team may run high, sixth-year head coach Joe Alberici prefers to focus on the process, instead of getting caught up with the results. “We’re more concerned with the process,” said Alberici. “We want to go out there and win every single day. We’ll go out and try to get better every day. If we do that, the results will take care of themselves. “There are several areas where we need to improve in order to get where we ultimately want to be. Our success will hinge on how well we can attack those areas and how successful we are at creating a ‘family’ atmosphere in the lockerroom. If we do those things, we’ll be okay.” ATTACK With the return of Boltus and Thul, Army’s first attack unit will have plenty of fire power. Boltus led the Black Knights with 67 points en route to earning first-team All-Patriot League honors last spring. Thul, meanwhile, paced the team with 41 goals and listed second on the squad with 50 points as he was named the Patriot League Rookie of the Year. Junior Conor Hayes, who stepped up his production during the fall, is penciled in at the third spot

on the starting line. Hayes appeared in 16 games for the Black Knights as a sophomore and gained a wealth of experience. “Jeremy is one of the most cerebral players that I’ve ever coached,” said Alberici. “We are going to count on him to continue in his role as a feeder, while also scoring goals. “Garrett has begun to round into a more complete attackman,” added Alberici. “Last season, he relied almost exclusively on his powerful shot, but I see him becoming a more versatile player this spring as he continues to develop his riding and dodging game. “I am really excited about Conor,” mentioned Alberici. “I think he’s really going to surprise some people this year with what he is able to do. He is a highly skilled player, and I anticipate a break-out season for him.” Senior Corey Reiser and junior John Adair have shown promise and will compete for playing time. Junior James MacGibbon is recovering from a knee injury and could join the lineup late in the season. Freshmen Taylor Bethea, Alex Carros and Drew Motschwiller will be in the mix at attack as well. Sophomore Garrett Thul, the 2010 Patriot League Rookie of the Year, returns to MIDFIELD West Point after setting Army freshman records for goals (41) and points (50). Alberici has the luxury of returning a couple of veteran offensive midfieldhopeful that he can provide a late-season spark to ers in McCallion and junior Devin Lynch. McCallion scored nine goals and assisted on the lineup. 17 others, listing fourth on the team with 26 points. Lynch, meanwhile, tallied 14 goals and handed out DEFENSIVE MIDFIELD seven assists, ranking sixth on the squad with 21 Alberici’s plan for the defensive midfield is to generate more offensive pop in the transition game. To points. that end, he has elected to move some of his more “Having Rob back as a four-year starter is huge for offensive-minded midfielders into the defensive half us,” said Alberici. “He is an excellent passer and is of the field.
crafty around the cage. I am extremely confident in his abilities to lead this unit. “Devin comes into the season with a tremendous amount of confidence after such a terrific end to the 2010 season,” commented Alberici. “There were several times during the fall that he looked like our best player, and that impressed the entire coaching staff.”
Senior Brandon Butler, whom Alberici describes as the “best all-around athlete” on the team, will spearhead this group. “Brandon is our best ground ball player with a short stick, and he has improved his offensive game,” said Alberici. “His ability to transition from offense to defense will be key this season.”
Sophomore Alex Van Krevel, who appeared in just five games for the Black Knights last spring, enjoyed a break-out fall and is penciled in as the third member of Army’s starting midfield unit.
Junior Matt Hurley, who has appeared in all 33 games since arriving at West Point, is a gifted athlete with plenty of promise. He will make a significant impact this year, playing alongside Butler.
Several players will have the opportunity to occupy a spot on the second line. Sophomores Andrew Boyd and Pat Brennan, and senior Jay Laing seem to be the most likely candidates to earn playing time on the second line. Sophmore Matt Ghidotti, who spent last season on the junior varsity, and freshmen Tyler Kamide, David Tarsa and Nate Gustafson will provide depth to this position group. Junior Brian LoRusso will miss the first part of the season as he recovers from shoulder surgery, but Alberici is
Senior Charlie Sauter, whom Alberici lauds as Army’s best one-on-one defender, should be in line for more playing time in his final season at West Point. Fellow senior Shane Smith is a pesky on-ball defender who is adept at frustrating opposing offenses. He will find his way onto the field more this season after impressing the coaching staff during the fall. Sophomore Matt Mezer, who can take faceoffs and play on the offensive end, is a hybrid player focusing on defense as the season opens up.

SEASON PREVIEW
Freshman Nick Isnardi will add depth to the faceoff unit and will fight for playing time throughout the season. LONG STICK MIDFIELD Led by first-team All-Patriot League selection junior Tim Henderson, Army’s long stick midfield group is a talent-rich unit. “Tim has the potential to be an All-American,” said Alberici. “He has worked hard on his ground ball game and has improved his team defense. An outstanding threat to the goal with a great shot, we look forward to seeing him develop even further this season.” Junior Tom Dalton, Army’s best ground ball player with the long stick, is a reliable reserve. Dalton received considerable playing time as a sophomore last season and he figures to play an ever larger role this spring. Senior Chris Day will provide strong leadership to the group, while freshman Kevin Epp adds depth to the unit. DEFENSE Led by senior Bill Henderson, Army’s defense will be strong once again in 2011. Henderson, who earned first-team All-Patriot League honors and was named an honorable mention All-American following last season, returns after missing the entire fall season recovering from injury. “Bill is one of the toughest players I’ve ever coached” said Alberici. “He is the type of leader that doesn’t say a lot, but when he does, he has the attention of everyone in the room. He is absolutely the top defender in our program, and one of the best in the country.” Junior Larry LoRusso and senior Matt Marasco figure to fill the other two starting spots on the defense. Both players received ample playing time a season ago, and have continued to develop.
depth. Freshmen John Burk, Pat Hart and Ken Ebner will use this season to develop and adjust to the college game, while also pushing the veterans every day in practice. GOALKEEPERS Senior Tom Palesky will backstop Army’s defense again in 2011 after authoring two of highest singleseason save totals the past two seasons (204 in 2009 and 199 in 2010). What will he do for an encore is hard to say, considering how much he’s already done. Last year, Palesky was named the Most Valuable Player at the Patriot League Tournament as he led Army to its first conference tournament title with wins over Bucknell and Navy. He was recognized after the season as an honorable mention All-American. “Tom has been an absolute joy to coach the last three Senior Tom Palesky will continue to move up the Academy’s record books this season. years,” said Alberici. “He is a tremendous stopper of the ball, and his ability in the clearing game has im- Red eliminated Army from the NCAA Tournament proved dramatically since he first arrived at West in the quarterfinals last May.

He is always one of the first ones of preparing us as we head into the Patriot League at the practice facility and routinely one of the last portion of the season,” said Alberici. “We’ll know to leave. When one of your best players shows that how we measure up pretty early on with some kind of commitment, it’s easy to gain respect in the strong competition and I am eager to see how our lockerroom. I am excited to see how good he can guys respond to the challenge.” be for us as a senior.” Junior Zach Palmieri returns as Palesky’s top backup. He appeared in two contests last season, including Army’s NCAA Tournament quarterfinal game versus Cornell. Sophomore Evan Danahy and freshman Bobby Sincero will provide Alberici with depth at the position as each goalkeeper continues to develop.
“Matt is an excellent inside defender who really understands our team defense,” said Alberici. “I look for him to have a good senior season.”
SCHEDULE Army’s schedule includes games against national powers Syracuse, Cornell, Johns Hopkins and Massachusetts, in addition to the Black Knights’ grueling Patriot League slate. All four teams are nationally ranked in both preseason polls. Syracuse is the preseason No. 1 in the Nike/Inside Lacrosse media ranking, while listing second in the USILA Coaches’ Poll.
Sophomore Brendan Buckley, an athletic defenseman, will push Marasco for that third spot all season long. He figures to see his share of playing time throughout the year.
The Black Knights will play their first three games away from West Point, taking on Massachusetts in their season opener on Feb. 12, before road matchups with VMI (Feb. 19) and Syracuse (Feb. 27).

Junior Derek Sipperly returns as Army’s top faceoff specialist. He turned in his two best performances of the season in the NCAA Tournament, and Alberici believes that experience will help him this year. “Derek is going to be our guy in the faceoff ‘x’ to start the season,” said Alberici. “Our success or failure in the faceoff game will have a lot to do with how he is able to perform for us.”

Road trips to Bryant (March 11) and Rutgers (March 19) are sandwiched around a home contest versus Wagner (March 13). The Black Knights then open Patriot League play on March 22 with a home game against Lehigh. Army welcomes conference rival Lafayette to West Point four days later (March 26), before travelling to Hamilton, N.Y., to face Colgate on April 2. The Black Knights host Bucknell one week later as the Bison visit Michie Stadium on April 9. Conference road games at Navy (April 16) and Holy Cross (April 23) close out the conference slate. Army will look to defend its Patriot League Tournament title over the weekend of April 29 and May 1 before hosting Johns Hopkins in the regular season finale on May 6. “We try to play a demanding schedule because we feel like it will put us in position to earn an at-large berth to the NCAA Tournament,” said Alberici. “The tough early games will also help prepare us for the rigorous Patriot League slate.”

Seymour picked up a loose ball on the VMI crease and stuffed home his third tally of the afternoon to make it a 7-4 Army lead at 6:53 before Long struck off a Moran feed at 4:07 to cut the deficit back down to two at 7-5. Boltus started his scoring tear with a man-up rip from 10 yards out off an assist by senior midfielder Andrew Maisano at 2:33, before getting open on the VMI crease and cashing in a McCallion pass 1:01 later to give the Black Knights a fourgoal cushion, 9-5 heading into the fourth. Boltus then started the fourth quarter with a 15-yard goal to push the lead to 10-5 with 13:15 to play. The VMI comeback started with Weimer’s third goal of the day at 12:26, before sophomore attackman Drew Leonard got loose on the Army crease and turned a Moran pass into a score at 11:22. Davis made a long run around the Army goal and scored an unassisted tally at 8:54, before finishing off another scoring attempt at 5:51 to make it a one-goal game, 10-9. With under two minutes to play, Thul took possession of the ball on the right side of the VMI zone and started his run from 20 yards out. He let loose a hard shot from 10 yards away into the top left corner of the goal to give the Black Knights some breathing room as they ran out the clock for the win.

West Point, N.Y. - Michie Stadium Army junior attackman Jeremy Boltus totaled three goals and three assists as the Black Knights held off a tough VMI squad to take an 11-9 victory in their season-opener at Michie Stadium. Leading 4-2 at halftime, Army forged a 10-5 lead early in the fourth quarter thanks in part to three-straight goals by Boltus to finish a 6-3 spurt. Four unanswered VMI goals, including a pair by junior midfielder Bobby Davis, pulled the visitors within one at 10-9 with 5:51 remaining, but an unassisted tally by Army freshman attackman Garrett Thul with 1:27 remaining sealed the win for Army. Junior goalkeeper Tom Palesky was credited with 11 saves to preserve the victory, while senior attackman Tyler Seymour added three goals and junior midfielder Rob McCallion added a goal and three assists to the winning effort for Army. VMI sophomore midfielder Stephen Robarge was a oneman wrecking crew, winning 16 of 19 faceoffs while picking up nine ground balls to keep the Keydets within striking distance all game long. Sophomore midfielder Keith Long (2 goals, 2 assists) and senior midfielder Tim Moran (1 goal, 3 assists) shouldered the scoring load for the visitors. Sophomore midfielder Devin Lynch took a feed from McCallion and scored on a 10-yard shot at 13:55 for the game’s first goal. Long would answer with an unassisted tally at 12:15, before Thul’s first collegiate goal off a feed from Boltus started a 3-1 Black Knight run to end the half. Moran netted a goal at 10:41 to tie the game, 2-2, before McCallion fed senior midfielder Tyler Oates for a man-up tally at 4:22 and then made a nice play to snag a loose ball and convert in front of the VMI net to make it a 4-2 Army lead after 15 minutes of play. A back-and-forth second quarter followed as neither team was able to find the back of the net heading into halftime, but the two teams combined for eight goals in a high-scoring third stanza. Seymour was the beneficiary of some nice passing by Boltus on back-to-back goals to start the third as Army looked to pull away with a 6-2 lead at the 11:09 mark, but Keydet senior attackman Jacob Weimer converted a pair of

West Point, N.Y. - Michie Stadium Army freshman attackman Garrett Thul scored four goals and added an assist, but it was visiting Bryant holding on for a 7-6 victory at Michie Stadium. Army held a slim 4-3 lead at halftime, but the Bulldogs scored two unanswered goals in the third quarter to take a 5-4 lead into the final period. Thul’s goal with 8:58 to play knotted the score, 5-5, but a man-up tally by Bryant junior midfielder Gary Crowley put the visitors up, 6-5, with 6:26 remaining. Thul once again tied the score with a goal with 2:04 to play, but sophomore midfielder Max Weisenberg made a nice move to get open on the right side of the crease and tucked the winning goal into the top left corner of the net with 1:18 to play for the victory . In a game played on a slushy field and in a wintry mix of sleet and rain, Bryant jumped out to a 3-1 first quarter lead. Crowley opened the game with an unassisted tally at the 7:57 mark, before Army junior attackman Jeremy Boltus took a feed on the run from junior midfielder Brandon Butler and scored on an eight-yard shot to tie the game at 3:03 of the first quarter. Consecutive Bulldog goals by junior mIdfielder Matt Larson at 2:02 and sophomore attackman Travis Harrington at :37 gave the visitors a two-goal cushion

heading into the second quarter. Army outscored Bryant 3-0 in the second quarter to build a 4-3 lead at halftime. Thul picked up a ground ball off a missed shot behind the Bryant cage and ran forward to stuff home his first of the day at 11:40. Following a Bryant slashing penalty, Thul would finish off a man-up attempt from 10yards away off a feed from junior attackman Jeremy Boltus at the 10:04 mark. Sophomore midfielder Devon Lynch would take a pass from Thul and score on a 15-yard laser at the 7:41 mark to give Army its first lead of the game heading into intermission. Bryant’s best scoring chance of the quarter came at the 5:00 mark with the Black Knights going mandown after an interference call, but Army goalkeeper Tom Palesky made a point-blank save on a shot by Weisenberg to keep the Bulldogs off the board for the quarter. Bryant tried to pry away the momentum in the third quarter, holding Army scoreless while grinding out two goals to take a 5-4 lead. Freshman attackman Peter McMahon got loose on the Army crease and beat Palesky for a tally at 7:46, before Larson converted from 12 yards away off a feed from behind the goal from junior attackman JK Poirier at 5:27. Thul started the final quarter with his third goal on a low, left-handed rip on the right side from 15 yards away at 8:58 for the fourth of five ties in the contest, but an Army slashing penalty would lead to a man-up tally by Crowley at 6:26 to put the visitors back on top, 6-5. Thul managed to bounce a shot between sophomore goalkeeper Jameson Love’s legs off Boltus’ secondconsecutive assist at the 2:04 mark two even the score, 6-6, but Weisenberg’s game-winner 46 seconds later sealed the Bryant victory.

Tied 6-6 at halftime, Army built an 8-6 lead on goals by senior midfielder Andrew Maisano and sophomore midfielder Tim Henderson just over four minutes into the third quarter, but a 5-0 Big Red run over the next 11 minutes gave the home team a 11-8 lead with 10:56 to play in the fourth quarter. Army would answer with a 3-0 run of its own to tie the game, 11-11, with 3:52 remaining in regulation and force overtime, but Big Red senior attackman Ryan Hurley took a feed from sophomore attackman Scott Austin and scored his fourth goal of the day to fend off the upsetminded Black Knights. It was the third-straight one-goal win by Cornell over Army in as many years. Senior attackman Tyler Seymour added a goal and three assists while classmate Jeremy Boltus totaled two goals and an assist for the Black Knights. Hurley staked the Big Red to a 2-0 lead with a pair of goals in the opening minutes of the game before Boltus put the Black Knights on the board at 7:07 off a feed from Seymour. Thul tied the score off another feed from Seymour at 4:20, but Cornell would find the net two more times on back-to-back tallies by sophomore attackman Rob Pannell, including a recovered Army turnover with only five seconds showing on the clock. Seymour would start the second quarter with a goal of his own on a run from behind the goal at 13:50. Cornell would go back up by two following a tally by freshman attackman Ross Gillum but back-to-back tallies by Thul knotted the game 5-5. Thul picked up a ground ball following a saved Army shot and drove in, untouched, for a goal at 5:38, before taking a short pass from Boltus from behind the goal and cashing in at 5:38. Hurly would back down a defender and stuff home his third goal of the game with 4:03 to play in the half, but Army senior Tyler Oates would score the first of his two goals on the day to finish a man-up opportunity at 1:52 to send the game into intermission tied, 5-5. Army came out firing in the second half as Maisano finished off a feed from junior midfielder Rob McCallion at 11:19 and Henderson rifled home a 15-yard rocket in
transition to put Army up 8-6 with 10:57 showing on the third-quarter clock. Cornell started its third-period run on a goal by junior midfielder David Lau at 7:04 that came following a huge pointblank save by freshman goalkeeper A.J. Fiore at the other end to start the Big Red possession. The game appeared to be slipping out of reach for Army as three Cornell goals in the final six minutes of the quarter, and another to start the fourth quarter made it a 11-8 Big Red lead with 10:56 to play in the game. However, Boltus was able to find from a tough angle on the run at 9:42 to kick-start the Black Knight comeback. Following a Cornell pushing penalty, Thul bounced home his fourth tally of the game, man-up, at 5:20, before Oates cashed in a Seymour feed from 12 yards out to knot the game, 11-11, with 3:52 to play. Army took possession and called timeout following a Cornell turnover with 2:08 remaining in regulation, but a shot by Thul with 20 seconds on the clock sailed right to force overtime. Cornell won the opening faceoff in overtime and get two shots off, but the Black Knights would get the ball back and call timeout with 2:34 remaining. Cornell would cause an Army turnover, but would give possession right back with a turnover of its own. McCallion had a shot at the gamewinner from close range in front of the Big Red net, but Fiore again was there to smother the shot attempt. The Army ride caused another turnover that led to two more solid scoring attempts by Boltus and Thul that each went wide. A dropped pass led to an Army turnover that the Big Red were able to scoop up and turn into the gamewinner in transition.

Army struck first in the second quarter to make it a 2-1 game at the 12:58 mark. Sophomore attackman Conor Hayes made a nice effort to cause a turnover in the Army end that led to a hard shot by senior midfielder Andrew Maisano that clanged off the left post of the SU goal. The ball deflected directly out to Hayes who buried a low laser into the bottom left corner of the SU goal for his first career point. Syracuse would score two more goals to take a 4-1 lead with 10:01 on the second quarter clock.

Syracuse needed only six seconds to retake the lead as Keogh scored on an eight-yard shot at 6:46, before Daniello’s fourth goal of the game at 6:46 made it a 7-5 game heading into the fourth quarter. An Orange goal at the 14:03 mark kicked off a methodical 5-1 run over a 13-minute span of the fourth quarter that proved to be too big a hole for Army to dig out of. A man-up goal by freshman attackman Garrett Thul at 10:25 cut it to a 9-6 lead for the home squad, but three more Syracuse goals sealed the afternoon. Palesky did all he could to keep the Black Knights in the game, including a seven-save third period that included multiple point-blank saves on the Army crease. He finished one save shy of the career-high 22 he totaled against Cornell a year ago.

Following a scrum, Army junior goalkeeper Tom Palesky came up with the loose ball and sent a long outlet pass down the right side of the field to a streaking LoRusso, who ran the ball into the Bucknell zone and hit a wide-open Seymour on the left side of the Bison goal where he beat freshman goalkeeper Kyle Feeney for the short-handed game-winner. Seymour and freshman attackman Garrett Thul each scored two goals apiece for the Black Knights, while sophomore midfielder Sean O’Sullivan was credited with a goal and an assist in the victory. It was Army’s second straight overtime win after also taking an 11-10 OT victory at Colgate last Saturday at Michie Stadium. The victory also broke a five-game skid against the Bison (6-5, 1-3 PL). Army got on the board first as Seymour took a nice pass on the crease from senior attackman Jeremy Boltus and scored with 14:04 on the clock. Bucknell would respond with three unanswered goals to finish the first quarter and scored another to start the second period to make it a 4-1 Bison lead at the 13:17 mark of the second. Streep started the run with an unassisted tally at 12:24, before senior attackman Austin Winter fought his way through the Black Knight defense to score from close range at 9:28. Sophomore attackman Charlie Streep would take advantage of a fallen defender to score unassisted at 3:56 to wrap up the first quarter. A pair of Black Knight penalties gave the Bison a two-man advantage that freshman attckman Chase Bailey cashed in for a tally at 13:17 of the second quarter to stake the home team to a three-goal advantage.
Army started it methodic comeback at the 7:22 mark as sophomore midfielder Brian LoRusso took a pass from O’Sullivan and scored from 14 yards in front of the Bucknell cage. O’Sullivan then added his own tally on a 12-yard shot that bounced in front of Feeney and over his shoulder to pull the Black Knights within one, 4-3, after two quarters of play. Army dominated the time of possession in a scoreless third quarter, holding the ball for over 12 minutes and outshooting the Bison by an 9-2 margin, but neither team could find the net. Bucknell wasted little time getting on the board in the fourth quarter, as freshman attackman Nick Gantsoudes finished off a run on the Army goal with 14:23 showing on the clock. Army would answer two minutes later as sophomore midfielder Devon Lynch took a Boltus pass from behind the Bucknell cage and bounced home a score at the 12:20 mark of the period. Thul then bulled his way through the Bison defense and stuffed a shot into the top left corner of the goal to tie the game, 5-5, with 5:50 left in regulation. Bucknell looked to have put the game away as Streep scored on a nice one-handed wrap-around shot to make it a 6-5 game with 1:16 to play. However, Army took possession with under thirty seconds to play and setup its final shot at the game-tying goal. Following a timeout, senior midfielder Andrew Maisano fed Thul a pass on the right side of the Bucknell cage and O’Sullivan set a pick 15 yards in front of the Bison goal. Thul got free off the pick and unleashed a rocket from 11 yards away that found its mark with only five seconds showing on the clock to force overtime.

Baltimore, Md. - M&T Bank Stadium Army junior attackman Jeremy Boltus totaled three goals and an assist to be named Game MVP and lead the Black Knights to a 7-6 victory over arch-rival Navy at M&T Bank Stadium. Boltus broke a 6-6 tie with a tally off a feed from sophomore midfielder Conor Hayes with 4:29 to play in the fourth quarter to clinch a victory in the 88th meeting between the two storied programs. Army freshman attackman Garrett Thul added two goals and an assist as the Black Knights took sole possession of first place in the Patriot League. Army turned in a stout defensive effort, holding the Midshipmen to one goal over a 32 minute span from the second to the fourth quarter. Boltus got things going at the 10:24 mark of the first quarter, running from behind the Navy goal and stuffing home the game’s first goal. The Midshipmen would answer with two goals of their own in the last two minutes of the quarter to take a one-goal lead. Senior attackman Kyle Kapron notched a man-up tally at 2:37 following an Army interference penalty, before sophomore midfielder Nikk Davis scored on an eight-yard shot at 1:44. Senior attackman Tyler Seymour took a feed from junior midfielder Rob McCallion and scored on a five-yard shot at 13:22 to tie the score, 2-2. Less than two minutes later, Thul bullied his way past a defender and sent a pass to senior midfielder Tyler Oates, who ripped a low shot into the Navy goal to make it a 3-2 Army edge with 11:41 to play in the half. Navy sophomore attackman Ryan O’Leary cut past a defender behind the Army goal and got open to score at 8:52, but the Black Knights would score two goals of their own to lead 5-3 at halftime. Boltus would notch a man-up tally on a 10-yard shot at 5:26 after Navy goalie RJ Wickham was screened by one of his own defenders, before Thul bounced a behind-the-back shot off the post and into the goal at 4:35. Junior midfielder Kevin Doyle pulled the Mids back within one with an unassisted goal at 11:21, but Thul would shake off a Navy defender and jam home his second tally of the game with 2:55 on the clock to make it a 6-4 Black Knight advantage after three quarters. A pair of Navy goals in just over a minute tied the game back up with 5:35 to play in regulation. Joe Lennon came off a pick and scored an unassisted goal at 6:37, before Davis found the net after a short run for the equalizer. Two teams that had already each played four overtime games apiece this season appeared to be headed toward their fifth, but Boltus’ third goal of the game proved to be the game-winner. Boltus got open on the left side of the Navy goal and scored off a feed from Hayes from 10 yards out to give the Black Knights the one-goal advantage.

The Leopards would stop the Army run with a tally at 7:44, but a 15-yard shot by senior midfielder Andrew Maisano at 7:15, a 15-yard Boltus bouncer in transition at 6:40 and a tally by senior midfielder Matt Poulos directly off the faceoff only seven seconds later gave Army a seemingly commanding seven goal lead.

Freshman attackman Garrett Thul posted career highs with five goals and six points to lead No. 20 Army to a 13-10 victory over Holy Cross in the team’s regular-season finale at Michie Stadium. The Black Knights became the first Army team in Patriot League history to finish with a 6-0 conference mark since the league expanded to seven teams in 2000. Holy Cross jumped out to a 4-0 lead with 12:06 on the first quarter clock, but the Black Knights responded with a 9-0 run to lead 5-4 at the end of the first, and 9-4 with 14:11 left in the third quarter. The Crusaders pulled within three goals on three occasions down the stretch, but never got any closer. Holy Cross scored on its first four shots to put a scare into the Black Knights in the early going as junior defenseman Douglas Broussard scooped up a ground ball off a faceoff and found the net to put Army in the early 4-0 hole. Thul and sophomore midfielder Sean O’Sullivan would get the Black Knight offense on track, combining to score Army’s first seven goals. O’Sullivan started by taking a feed from senior attackman Tyler Seymour and slinging home the first of his three goals on the afternoon with 11:02 on the clock. Thul would score back-to-back goals on feeds by junior midfielder Rob McCallion at 10:14 and 8:28, before O’Sullivan converted a Thul feed at 6:55 to tie the game.Thul would then collect a rebound on the Crusader crease after a saved shot and score to put the Black Knights up, 5-4, with 4:33 on the first quarter clock. Thul kept up his torrid pace with another goal, this time on a 12-yard strike from the right side, at 13:40 of the second quarter, before O’Sullivan finished off a feed from senior midfielder Tyler Oates with a 15-yard shot at 11:50. McCallion would close out the half by bouncing home a shot with 3:33 left in the quarter to stake the Black Knights to an 8-4 halftime lead. McCallion opened the second half the same way he closed the first with a 10-yard goal off a pass from senior captain Andrew Maisano to give Army its largest lead of the game. Holy Cross looked to claw its way back with goals by senior attackman Edison Parzanese at 7:09 and freshman

8 11
West Point, N.Y. - Michie Stadium Army junior goalkeeper Tom Palesky was named tournament MVP after leading the Black Knights to a 11-8 victory over Navy to win the 2010 Patriot League Men’s Lacrosse Championship at Michie Stadium. Junior attackman Jeremy Boltus garnered all-tournament honors after scoring five points on two goals and three assists as Army won its first-ever Patriot League Tournament crown. After falling to Navy in the championship game in 2005 and 2006, the third time was the charm as the Black Knights secured their first appearance in the NCAA since 2005 and 16th overall. Trailing 4-3 with 5:20 left in the second quarter, Army broke the game open with a decisive 5-0 run to lead 8-4 with 5:55 left in the third quarter. Navy (7-8) scored two unanswered to cut the deficit to two, 8-6, with 12:56 left in the fourth quarter, but Army would finish the game on a 3-2 run, while building a 36-19 edge in ground balls to seal the victory. Palesky was credited with 12 saves after compiling 17 in Friday’s 9-7 semifinal victory over Bucknell. He joined Boltus, senior attackman Tyler Seymour and junior defenseman Bill Henderson on the all-tournament team. After starting the season with a 1-4 record, Army rebounded to win nine of its next 10 games, and will take a seven-game winning streak into the NCAA Tournament. Sunday’s victory also marked the first time the Black Knights ever beat Navy twice in one season after also taking a 7-6 decision two weeks ago at M&T Bank Stadium in Baltimore. Navy scored the first two goals of the game before Army answered with two of its own to make the score 2-2 after the first quarter of play. Senior attackman Brendan Connors shook off an Army defender and scored from close range 49 seconds into the game, before junior attackman Andy Warner did the same to put the Mids up 2-0 at the 9:56 mark. Boltus would get into the action after grabbing a rebound on the Navy crease and scoring with 4:39 to play in the quarter, before Thul converted an 18-yard rocket from the right side two knot the game back up. The squads traded goals twice in the second quarter. Navy senior midfielder Patrick Moran would bounce home a tally at 12:46, before junior midfielder Rob McCallion would finish off a Boltus feed for a man-up goal at 7:42. Midshipmen senior midfielder Joe Lennon would score a nice goal in transition at at 5:20, before Army sophomore midfielder Devon Lynch started the Black Knights’ run with a score off a pass from senior midfielder Andrew Maisano with 3:40 on the clock.
Boltus hit a wide-open freshman attackman Garrett Thul on the Navy crease for the first of his four goal goals on the day to give Army a 5-4 lead at 2:11 that it would take into intermission. The Black Knights would keep hammering away in the third quarter as senior attackman Tyler Oates converted a low-lining rip from 11 yards away at the 12:46 mark, before Maisano ran in on goal after a strong dodge on the left side to make it a 7-4 lead at 7:18. McCallion hit an open Seymour on the Navy crease for a man-up conversion with 5:55 left in the period for the four-goal lead. Navy took advantage of an Army failure to advance foul and quickly score as senior LSM Zach Schroeder would score in transition with 1:43 to play in the third to halt a 18:37 scoring drought for the Midshipmen. Navy would score again to start the fourth as Connors took a pass from behind the Army goal from sophomore midfielder Nikk Davis and beat Palesky to pull the visitors within two, 8-6, with 12:56 to play in the game. Thul scored what was perhaps the biggest goal of the game to halt the Navy run, backing down a defender 15 yards in front of the Navy goal before turning and unleashing a monster shot into the top-right corner of the goal at 9:09. O’Sullivan would follow with another long-range shot at 8:12 to put Navy back in a four-goal hole that it could not dig out of. Navy freshman midfielder Evan Sullivan would find the net with 2:23 on the clock, before Moran scored with 1:51 remaining to cut to a two-goal deficit, but the Black Knights salted the game away with two huge possessions that included an empty-net goal by Boltus with 11 seconds to play to seal the win.

Devin Lynch netted the game-winning goal in double overtime to help Army knock off two-time defending national champion Syracuse in the first round of the NCAA tournament in ground balls against the same team that compiled a 3820 edge in during the 12-7 defeat in the regular-season meeting at the Carrier Dome on Feb. 28. It was the only time Syracuse had been out-ground balled all season long. Boltus, Lynch and freshman attackman Garrett Thul were each credited with two goals and an assist, while junior midfielder Rob McCallion was credited with a goal and two assists. Junior goalkeeper Tom Palesky made 13 saves, including five in the first quarter to keep Army in the game and preserve the win. Syracuse looked to put the game away early as senior attackman Cody Jamieson scored a pair of goals only 31 seconds apart to put the Orange up 2-0 with 12:02 on the clock. McCallion got the Army offense going with a 12-yards bouncer at 9:56, but three unanswered Syracuse goals over the next five minutes staked the home team to a 5-1 lead with 12:44 on the second quarter clock. But momentum would slowly start to shift Army’s way. Following a Syracuse slashing penalty, a man-up goal by senior attackman Tyler Seymour from close range off a McCallion pass at 11:47 started a 3-1 Army run to finish the half that made it a 6-4 game at intermission. While the Army defense was forcing six turnovers in the quarter and holding the potent Orange attack scoreless for over a 12-minutes span, Boltus’ first tally came on a 15-yard rip off a Lynch feed at the 1:57 mark. Syracuse junior attackman Steven Keogh would score in transition with 32 second remaining, but Lynch would beet the halftime horn with a leaping goal with only :01 showing to pull Army back within two. Jamieson opened the third quarter with his third goal of the game to put Syracuse back up by three, 7-4, with 9:04 on the clock, but Army would finish the game on a 5-1 run on its way to victory. O’Sullivan converted a man-up strike off the stick of Thul with 4:21 to play in the quarter, before Thul scored a goal of his own on a bounce shot from close range after running from behind the cage with 48 seconds left in the period to make it a one-goal affair. Syracuse caused an Army turnover and come up with a hard-fought ground ball that set up Keogh’s second goal with 12:05 showing on the fourth-quarter clock, but it would prove to be the Orange’s final tally of the contest as they were shutout for the final 20 minutes of the game. A goal by Thul at 9:39 and Boltus at 6:49 knotted the game, 8-8, to force extra time. The Black Knights carried the momentum into the first overtime and had possession for nearly all of the first fourminute session. Army unleashed three shots in the first extra

Cornell senior attackman Ryan Hurley scored two of his team’s first four tallies to help stake the Big Red to the fivegoal cushion by halftime. Army looked to mount a comeback, kicking off the second half with a man-up tally by senior attackman Tyler Oates at 9:06, but the Cornell defense held Army scoreless over the next 14 minutes while putting together the decisive six-goal run to advance to the national semifinal for the second straight year. Hurley finished with a game-high five points on four goals and one helper to record his eighth hat-trick of the season and 25th of his career. Senior attackman Tyler Seymour led the Black Knights with a goal and assist. Junior attackman Jeremy Boltus, freshman attackman Garrett Thul, and sophomore midfielder Devin Lynch scored one goal apiece, while junior midfielder Rob McCallion added an assist. Junior goalkeeper Tom Palesky was credited with 11 saves in the loss. Following the opening run from Cornell, Boltus got the Black Knights on the board with a rip that found the upper corner from 12 yards out with 2:04 showing in the first quarter. Hurley helped the Big Red to a 6-1 advantage after registering the assist and tally on Cornell’s next two scores. Army answered with two of the game’s next three goals however, as McCallion found Lynch in an open space for a blast from 10 yards out that made it 6-2. Oates started the third frame with a tally off of a lowto-high feed from Seymour, but Cornell responded with the definitive run to put the game out of reach. Cornell sophomore attackman Rob Pannell powered the run, scoring all four of his points (two goals, two assists) in the second half.

In the second OT, Sipperly won the faceoff to set up an offensive chance for junior midfielder Brendan Butler, but SU junior goalie John Galloway was there to deny Butler’s attemp in front. However, the Orange turned the ball over again on the following possession and failed to back up a shot that Army junior defenseman Bill Henderson was able to get to first and set up the winning possession with a 1:12 left. The miscues set the stage for Boltus, who drove hard to the cage and dumped the ball to Lynch for the winner. It was the first and only time the Black Knights had led all evening.

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 97 percent of its teams reporting a graduation rate of 90 percent or higher in the most recent data. In addition, 79 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. Patriot League student-athletes and teams continue to enjoy success at the national level, with opening round victories coming in several NCAA Championships including Army baseball to the regional final of the 2009 NCAA Tournament and Navy’s triumph against national No. 4 seed North Carolina in men’s lacrosse during the 2008 campaign. Patriot League teams previously recorded consecutive first-round wins in men’s basketball, a final four appearance in men’s lacrosse and a sixth-place finish at the NCAA Cross Country Championship to highlight the League’s recent NCAA success. The Patriot League’s mission is simple, to provide successful competitive athletic experiences while maintaining high academic standards, and to prepare its student-athletes to be leaders in society.
Army Lacrosse Players Excel in the Classroom Under the guidance of head coach Joe Alberici, Army lacrosse players have excelled in the classroom, as well as the lacrosse field. Since Alberici arrived at West Point six years ago, Army players have won the Patriot League Scholar-Athlete of the Year award three times. Last year alone,Andrew Maisano was named the Patriot League ScholarAthlete of the Year for lacrosse in addition to being named the recipient of the Lowe’s Senior CLASS Award. Maisano, who became the fourth Army lacrosse player to earn the league’s Scholar-Athlete of the Year award in the 20-year history of the conference, became the first Army lacrosse player to ever receive the Patriot League Male Scholar-Athlete of the Year award. The award considers student-athletes from each of the conference’s 23 sports. Here is a breakdown of past recipients. of the Patriot League ScholarAthlete of the Year award for lacrosse.

HISTORY OF ARMY LACROSSE
Early Army lacrosse action from 1939.
One of the most storied institutions in the nation, West Point is also home to one of the oldest and most successful college lacrosse programs in the country. The Black Knights embark on their 93rd season of intercollegiate lacrosse Feb. 12 (the earliest season opener in Academy history) when they travel to Amherst, Mass., to face Massachusetts. Joe Alberici enters his fifth season along the sidelines and hopes to lead the program back to the NCAA Tournament for the second straight season after winning the Patriot League title and reaching the second round of the NCAAs last year. With 716 victories under its belt, Army’s lacrosse program ranks fifth in all-time wins, behind only Johns Hopkins, Syracuse, Navy and Hobart. Army lacrosse has earned eight national championships before the NCAA sanctioned a postseason tournament in 1971, while 12 men (eight players and four coaches) associated with the program’s history have been welcomed into the National Lacrosse Foundation Hall of Fame. Additionally, former legendary head coach F. Morris Touchstone was part of the inaugural class to be enshrined in the Hall of Army Sports Hall of Fame in 2004.Touchstone, who retired in 1957, is still the Academy’s all-time winningest lacrosse coach. Further testimony to Army’s prominent place on the landscape of collegiate lacrosse is evident in the postseason awards. Two of the five existing national lacrosse awards bear the name of a former member of the Army lacrosse “family.” The national “Coach of the Year” award is named in honor of Touchstone, while the national “Player of the Year” award is recognized as the Lt. Raymond J. Enners Award – a 1967 Academy graduate. Two former Black Knights (Pete Cramblet in 1970 and Tom Cafaro in 1971) have won the Enners Award, while James “Ace” Adams (1961) and Dick Edell (1978) were presented with the Touchstone “Coach of the Year” honor. Three Black Knights have been named the nation’s top attackman while two have earned outstanding goalie plaudits (including A. Norman Webb, who earned that distinction in 1963 and 1964). Eight Army players have captured the nod as the top defenseman in the country.
2011 Army Lacrosse
Tracing Lacrosse’s Roots
the Hall paved the way for All-Americans Harry Wilson, Thomas Truxtun and James Hartinger to follow. Wilson was the first West Point athlete to earn first team All-America accolades in both lacrosse and football in the same year, accomplishing that feat in 1926. Charles Born, a first team football All-American in 1925 was selected as a first team lacrosse All-American in 1928. Throughout its early days, the lacrosse program enjoyed a close affiliation with the Army football team as many gridders kept themselves athletically fit by excelling in lacrosse each spring. Among Army’s early lacrosse All-Americans were gridders Wilson, Born, Milt Summerfelt, Robert Stillman, Clinton True and Woodrow Wilson. Bill Carpenter would equal that feat prior to his graduation in 1960. Carpenter achieved national acclaim as the “Lonely End” on Army’s football team. Much like Touchstone, who was a lacrosse visionary, the “Lonely End” formation was the brainchild of Hall of Fame football coach Earl “Red” Blaik. So intertwined were the success of the gridders and laxmen that both programs captured national championships in 1944 and 1945.
Lacrosse had a sparse beginning at West Point as an Academy-sponsored sport. The U.S. Military Academy supported an intercollegiate squad in 1907, 1909 and 1910 before the sport really took off for good in 1921.

He roamed the Army sidelines from 1929 through 1957. During his tenure, the Black Knights of the Hudson won or shared three national titles, capturing the outright crown in 1944 before sharing it with Navy in 1945 and Princeton in 1951. Forty-two of the 82 first team All-Americans in Army history came while Touchstone was the coach. His resume, laden with a .743 winning percentage at Army and coupled with a strong four-year stint as head coach at Yale, earned him an induction into the Hall of Fame in 1960, just three years after his Army played its home games on “The Plain,’”as well as at Daly Field, Clinton Field and Shea Stadium, before moving into Michie Stadium. retirement.

HISTORY OF ARMY LACROSSE Army became only the fifth lacrosse program in the nation to total 700 victories with its win over VMI on Feb. 14, 2009. In 93 seasons, the Black Knights are the owners of a 716-338-7 record since defeating Steven’s Tech, 3-1, in the program’s first outing in 1907. Maryland became the sixth to reach the plateau later in the season. Army is one of only eight teams with more than 650 wins: Rnk. 1. 2. 3. 4.

won .777 percent of its games — including a then Academy-record 10-win performance during his final season in 1969 — and shared the national championship four times, 1958, 1959, 1961 and 1969. In 1961, after a 9-2 campaign, Adams was named national “Coach of the Year.” An All-America midfielder during his college days at Johns Hopkins, Adams joined Touchstone in the Hall of Fame during induction ceremonies in 1975. By that time Robert Miser, Webb and Cramblet had also been enshrined following stellar careers. Last November, Dick Edell increased Army’s representation in the Hall of Fame to 11 with his enshrinement. It marked the second consecutive year that the Hall of Fame class included a member of the Army family. In 2003, another stalwart from the Ace Adams era earned his way into the hallowed hall when Tom Sheckells (USMA ’65) was voted in posthumously. Cramblet and Cafaro, who were the cornerstones of the Army team during the transition from Adams to successor Al Pisano, helped establish the Black Knights as an explosive offensive team. Cramblet would graduate in 1970 as the Academy’s all-time leading scorer with 150 points, but Cafaro would shatter that mark one year later following an 85-point senior season that vaulted his career point total to 167. With Pisano at the helm, the Black Knights played an instrumental role in the emergence of the NCAA Tournament. The NCAA unveiled its eight-team playoff format in 1971 and the Black Knights found themselves in the first lacrosse final four. Cafaro was the impetus behind that success, scoring 18 points in Army’s two contests. The Black Knights defeated Hofstra in the opening round (19-6) but lost to eventual champion Cornell, 17-16, in the semifinals. Both games were held at West Point. In fact, since the tourney’s inception, West Point has been the home to postseason play in seven different years, most recently in 2001 when

the first round was held at Michie Stadium. The Black Knights were members of the first three NCAA tourney fields and have appeared in postseason play 15 times, including the last two campaigns.Army is one of only 11 lacrosse programs that have appeared in at least a dozen postseason tournaments since the event began in 1971. Dick Edell, who succeeded Pisano and forged a .733 winning percentage in his seven-year stint at the Academy, continued Army’s success. He guided the Black Knights to the NCAA Tournament in four of his seven years along the Army sideline. Goalie George Slabowski and attackman Frank Giordano were the featured stars of Edell’s era. Both earned first team All-America accolades in 1983 — Edell’s final season — as Army put forth the first of two successive 11-3 marks.
The Emmer Era
Jack Emmer, who had been a highly successful coach during stints at Cortland State and Washington & Lee, replaced Edell in the spring of 1984. Emmer’s inaugural season along the banks of the Hudson was a resounding success as the team became just the second Army squad to reach the final four, edging Pennsylvania, 8-7 at Franklin Field in the NCAA Quarterfinals. That would be the first of eight postseason bids earned by Emmer’s Black Knights. When Army defeated Cornell in the 1996 season opener, Emmer joined Touchstone as the only coaches in Army history to reach 100 wins at the Academy. One of Emmer’s most successful seasons came in 1993 when a senior-dominated Army team — paced by Steve Heller, who would graduate as the Academy’s career scoring leader with 204 points — finished the regular season with an 113 record before beating Maryland 15-11 in the opening round of the NCAA tourney. In 1997 and 1998, Ross Yastrzemsky and Chad Hadlock eclipsed the century mark for career points. Yastrzemsky graduated as the program’s highest scoring midfielder ever, compiling 121 points. He added an honorable mention AllAmerica certificate to his accolades after the 1997 season. Emmer coached 27 All-Americans in his 22 years at the Academy, including Jim Wagner and John Walker a year ago. Tim Pearson (USMA ’02), a three-time honorable mention AllAmerica, concluded his exceptional career as the Academy’s all-time leading scorer. He smashed Heller’s previous mark, finishing with 238 points. Emmer led Army into league play when the Patriot League was formed in 1991. The Black Knights did not lose a game to a conference foe in its first 25 contests, reeling off one of the nation’s longest conference winning streaks ever. That string still stands as the longest in Patriot League history. Army’s peerless leader guided the Black Knights back into the NCAA Tournament in 2005 for the eighth time and the 15th time overall for the storied program. It also marked the third straight season that the Black Knights were invited to the NCAA Tournament. Despite finishing runner-up at the Patriot League postseason tournament, Army was one of

Jack Emmer retired following the 2005 season the winningest coach in NCAA lacrosse history. He collected 186 of his 325 wins during his 22 seasons at West Point.
10 at-large bids to the tournament. Emmer led his charges south of the Mason-Dixon line for a match-up with No. 8 Georgetown. The Black Knights dropped that NCAA First Round contest, 16-6 to the Hoyas. Emmer carried on the Academy’s long line of coaching success among a lineage of legendary lacrosse mentors at West Point. However, that long run came to a close in May 2005 when Emmer announced his retirement from coaching after 36 years. He left the game as the all-time winningest lacrosse coach in NCAA history.
New Beginnings
The 2006 season brought a change of guard over the Army lacrosse program as one-time assistant coach, Joe Alberici, returned to succeed his former mentor Jack Emmer. Alberici became just the 10th head coach in 88 years of the Academy’s program, following in the footsteps of four coaching Hall of Famers who have come before him. In his first campaign as head coach, Alberici paced the Black Knights to an 8-7 finish and a No. 20 USILA/USA Today ranking. Army fell just short of the NCAA tournament after a runner-up finish at the Patriot League Championships. In 2008, Alberici led the Black Knights to a 9-6 record and the regular season Patriot League Championship with a 5-1 conference mark. For his efforts, he was named the Patriot League Coach of the Year, marking the first time an Army skipper won the award since Emmer nabbed his second honor in 1998. Last year, Alberici guided Army to an 11-6 overall record, a perfect 6-0 Patriot League mark, two wins over Navy and its first-ever Patriot League tournament title. The Black Knights went on to knock off two-time defending national champion Syracuse in the first round of the NCAA tournament.

2010 Patriot League Champions
ARMY IN THE NCAA TOURNEY Now in its 40th season, the NCAA Men’s Lacrosse Tournament continues to be the premier event of the college lacrosse season each spring. NFL stadiums have hosted lacrosse’s final four in each of the past seven years, setting attendance records in each successive season. M&T Bank Stadium, home of the NFL’s Baltimore Ravens, served as host site for three championship events in 2003, 2004 and 2007, and will bring the championship weekend back again in 2010 and 2011. Philadelphia’s Lincoln Financial Field served as host of championship weekend in 2005 and 2006, while Gillette Stadium in Foxborough, Mass, home of the New England Patriots, hosted the 2008 and 2009 championships. Syracuse won its 11th NCAA Title last season with a 10-9 victory over Cornell in the championship game, played in front of over 50,000 fans. Army has played an important role in the development of the NCAA Tournament, having appeared in 15 postseason brackets and hosting tournament contests on seven occasions. The Black Knights have reached the final four twice since the tournament was created in 1971, Former head Coach Jack Emmer reached the NCAA Tournament 16 times, ranking him second all-time in NCAA history. He took the Army Black Knights to the postseason tournament a school-record eight times. He also reached the postseason seven consecutive seasons during his previous two stops at Cortland and Washington & Lee. That mark of consistency ranks tied for 12th all-time in the NCAAs. Former Army great Tom Cafaro (’71) still holds a share of an NCAA Tournament record with his seven goals in the 1971 semifinals against Cornell. That is tied for the most goals scored by an individual in an NCAA semifinal game. It is also the second-highest total scored in any NCAA Tournament contest. Cafaro’s 18 points in the 1971 tournament set a postseason scoring record and is still tied for the seventh best single postseason performance by an individual in the NCAAs. More amazingly, Cafaro amassed his 18 points in just two tournament games.

ARMY IN THE NCAA TOURNEY in Foxboro, Mass., will host the event in 2008 and 2009.
A grand total of 45 programs have qualified for the NCAA Tournament in its 36-year history. Expanding to 16 teams in 2003, the premier event of the men’s lacrosse season welcomes seven automatic qualifiers and selects nine at-large schools to fill out its bracket each year.
Sixth-year head coach Joe Alberici is no stranger to the NCAAs. He was an associate head coach at Duke University for nine seasons, leading the Blue Devils to the National Championship game in 2005 before falling by one goal to Johns Hopkins. Duke spent the majority of that season ranked second nationally behind the Blue Jays.
The game’s growth over the years necessitated a move of championship weekend to larger stadiums. M&T Bank Stadium in Baltimore has hosted three of the last five championship weekends, including last season, while Philadelphia’s Lincoln Financial Field hosted the 2005 and 2006 festivities. Gillette Stadium
The Black Knights have been a part of the NCAA Tournament 15 times and rank tenth all-time in tournament appearances. Army has qualified for the NCAAs at least twice in every decade since the tournament began in 1971.
West Point and venerable Michie Stadium have played host to the NCAA Tournament seven times, most recently in 2001 when Notre Dame, Bucknell, Virginia and Hofstra squared off in first-round tilts.

2010 Patriot League Champions
THE ARMY-NAVY RIVALRY All-Time Results
Army players hoist the Patriot League Trophy after defeating Navy, 11-8, in the conference tournament championship game One of the most celebrated and revered rivalries in all of sports, the Army-Navy competition is not limited to the gridiron.The two service academies compete in 21 other intercollegiate sports. In lacrosse, the Army-Navy rivalry carries the same weight and expectations as its football counterpart. Adding to the mystique is the fact that the two academies annually rank in the national polls and are two of the most storied and successful programs in the history of the sport. Army and Navy rank among the alltime winningest programs in Division-I histor y. The two academies have combined for 25 national championships and even shared the national title in 1945 and 1961. Only 15 schools in the country have made a dozen or more NCAA Tournament appearances – Army and Navy are two of those institutions. The 90th chapter in the storied rivalry takes place on April 16 when Army travels to Annaplolis, Md., to face the Midshipmen at Navy-Marine Corps Stadium. Last year, Army knocked off Navy twice, including an 11-8 victory over the Mids in the Patriot League Tournament championship. The 2008 edition of the game marked the end of the longest run of consecutive wins by either team in the history of the rivalry. Army’s 9-6 victory snapped an 11-year, 13-game winning streak the Mids started in 1998. The two schools histories are deeply intertwined with one another. Navy head coach Richie Meade was an assistant under former Army head coach Jack Emmer at West Point from 1991-94.

One of the Mids’ most recent top scorers, Ian Dingman, has an older brother, Lee, who graduated from West Point in 2000 and was an integral part of Emmer’s squads for four years. In the very first meeting, in 1924, the Midshipmen prevailed, 5-0. The two teams met every year from 1924-28, with Navy taking four wins and a tie, before putting the series on hold until 1933.After a nine-year wait,Army finally picked up its first win over Navy in 1933, 8-5.The Black Knights and Mids have met every year for the past 75 years. Navy holds a 56-27-3 advantage in the overall series. The Army-Navy series has consisted of numerous hard-fought games throughout the years. Of the first 79 Army-Navy clashes, 47 were decided by three goals or less, including 16 one-goal games and three ties. One of the most memorable of those one-goal affairs was a thrilling 11-10 double-overtime victory for the Black Knights in Annapolis in 1991. Army trailed 10-9 in the final minute with Navy holding possession of the ball trying to salt away the clock. Army goalie Rick Aguilar ranged far behind his own net to force a turnover, then fed Eric Waltz, who ran the length of the field and scored with four seconds to play. After a scoreless first overtime, the Black Knights’ Jim Gorman scored an unsettled goal with 1:05 left in the second overtime, ending a five-year losing streak to the Midshipmen. The 2000 game was no different, as the contest was tied five different times before Navy prevailed 10-8 in front of more than 2,600 fans at Michie Stadium.

In 2002, the Mids came away with a 9-6 victory in that encounter to extend their winning streak over Army. Navy scored three times in the first six minutes of the second half to turn a onegoal lead into a four-goal advantage. In 2003, the bitter rivals put on yet another spectacular show, earmarking another for the classics.Army jumped on top early, 3-1, at a jam-packed Rip Miller Field. However, homestanding Navy retaliated with three unanswered goals to take the lead. From there, the two lacrosse giants traded blow-for-blow until the late stages of the fourth quarter. Navy scored twice in a 15 seconds to break a 9-9 tie. The Mids held a 12-10 advantage in the final minute of play, when Army’s Marko Kostovic scored with 16 seconds left. However, Navy won the ensuing faceoff and ran out the clock, ending Army’s comeback bid. In 2005, Army and Navy met twice in one season for the first time since 1981. The Midshipmen came away with a win in the regular-season encounter and again in the Patriot League Championship game to run their consecutive winning streak to nine straight. An Army-Navy record crowd of 12,117 saw the Midshipmen come away with a 12-9 victory and clinch home field advantage for the Patriot League Tournament later that month. On that occasion, another 5,451 fans poured into Navy-Marine Corps Stadium to watch Navy’s 15-8 victory. 2007 marked the third-straight season that the two teams met twice during the season - once during the regular season and then in the first-round of the Patriot League Playoffs.
