COACHES’ PERSPECTIVES “Winners are always striving for something more. They have a competitive edge that separates them from everyone else. They never seem to weigh the odds before accepting a challenge. They push themselves to the limits to maximize their ability in all aspects of life. To be at West Point is to be a winner. You attend college in hopes of setting yourself up for success in the future. Your goal is to open as many doors as possible. No place in the world accomplishes that better than West Point. West Pointers have been an integral part of our past and will be an integral part of our future. There is no place I’d rather be.” — JOE SOTTOLANO, HEAD COACH “The opportunity to be a part of the best leadership development institution in the world, and to coach on the grounds that many of our nation’s very best leaders once walked is truly a humbling experience. I am extremely proud to be working alongside many of the very best young men that America has to offer. In addition, the support that the Army baseball program receives is remarkable, both from an alumni and an administrative standpoint. The combination of these two aspects makes this an extraordinary opportunity.” — ANTHONY DeCICCO, ASSISTANT COACH “I am proud to be a member of the West Point family. The unique qualities of life education received at the United States Military Academy, both in the classroom and on the baseball field, are remarkable. Every day I am at West Point, I understand the incredible closeness here, and I see the vibrant, active alumni network, and how they help each other. The support within the baseball family is awesome as well, and I’m excited to be a part of it. It’s an honor to work with the outstanding cadets on the baseball team, and we will all work hard to make the United States Military Academy proud.” — MATT REID, ASSOCIATE HEAD COACH

ARMY GAME DAY


FACILITIES

Some of the finest athletic facilities in the nation greet an Army baseball player upon his arrival at West Point.

CENTER OF ATTENTION


WHAT THEY’RE SAYING “One thing about these military-officers-in-training – they won’t be rattled. Let’s face it, they’re soldiers. Not only that, last year’s experience at LSU will be a huge advantage for the (Black) Knights. Nick Hill and Justin Kashner have great resumes and with an inspired effort, could pull off a few shockers in the Tallahassee Regional. FSU better be aware of what they’re getting into.” — ERIC SORENSON, SORENSON, SEBaseball.com, predicting Army as the NCAA Tournament’s “No. 4 Seed to Watch” prior to the 2005 NCAA Regionals “Hardly daunted, Army played like a team determined to make school history.” — CHRIS MILTON, Times Herald-Record, following Florida State’s 3-2 defeat of Army at the Tallahassee Regional “You have to give Army a lot of credit. We were really impressed with their ball club last night and equally impressed today. They scrap, they play hard and they’ve got some pretty good talent. I don’t think the general public really knows how good this Army team is.” — STEVE KITTRELL, Head Coach, South Alabama, following Army’s 8-5 defeat of the Jaguars at the Tallahassee Regional “I think the finish wouldn’t have been nearly as exciting if it hadn’t been for the tremendous, competitive play of Army. They set that up with outstanding effort. They hit the ball hard. They hit it far. They hit it often. They hit it off the ground. They hit it when it was in the air. They hit it off the fence. They hit it over the fence. They really did a great job this game. We’re fortunate to win and it was a dramatic win.” — AUGIE GARRIDO, Head Coach, Texas, following Texas’ 14-10 win over Army at the 2009 Austin Regional Final

“Sottolano is a recruiting genius, bringing top-flight talent to a school that has demanding academic standards and a five-year military commitment to boot.” — KEN McMILLAN, Times Herald-Record

“Three Bold Predictions: 1- Army earns a No. 3 seed and makes another Regional title round. Yep, I didn’t blink while typing that, either. The Black Knights made headlines last year with their PL dominance and runner-up finish in the Austin Regional where they played Texas tough and eliminated Boston College and Texas State. The Black Knights are loaded for 2010, as the top five pitchers and five of the top six hitters are back, including one of the better two-way players in the Northeast in Ben Koenigsfeld. This looks like a bonzai year for the Black Knights. That NCAA tournament experience from last year will keep Army in the catbird seat, and confident it can stay there.” — ERIC SORENSON, Easton’s Collegebaseballtoday.com

“The home runs and the pitches will long be forgotten, but the character of the Army baseball team will be long remembered from the NCAA regional tournament. Army coach Joe Sottolano was an impressive figure , whether passionately talking about his players’ effort, or their sacrifices or what may be in store for them in what he called these difficult times. He wasn’t talking about trying to turn a double-play. He was talking about the world. Florida State officially won the regional. But Army’s players stole the show.” — CHARLES GOLDBERG, Birmingham News

“While other rising juniors at elite college programs wonder about next spring’s Major League draft, (Clint) Moore and (Ben) Koenigsfeld and the rest of Army’s team are focused on – in order – duty, honor, country and baseball.” — JEFF MILLS, Greensboro News-Record “2009 Regional Grade Army: A The Black Knights will walk away from this regional with a bitter taste in their mouths, after going into the 9th inning with a four-run lead and losing the title game against Texas. But like BC, hard to fault the Cadets here. What a great effort they gave, nearly pushing this to a fourth day. This team set more than 60 records in their impressive 36-21 season.” — ERIC SORENSON, Easton’s Collegebaseballtoday.com


ARMY AT THE NCAAS


SNAPSHOTS FROM FLORIDA

For the 16th consecutive season, Army will travel to sunny Tampa, Fla., for its spring trip in March. Few teams nationally can boast of the accommodations offered to the Army baseball team during its annual venture south. Invited guests of the New York Yankees franchise, the Black Knights work out daily at the Yankees’ sprawling fourfield minor league complex, located two blocks from George M. Steinbrenner Field, spring home to New York’s Major League club. With access to the Yankees’ medical and training facilities, Army players are guaranteed some of the finest care and treatment afforded any college athlete. Additionally, the Black Knights are awash in the heritage and tradition so synonymous with professional sports’ most storied franchise and its rich player development system. Current big-leaguers, top prospects and former stars routinely walk the complex as Yankee workouts coincide with the Black Knights’ daily practice times. Army will once again square off against top teams from around the country during this year’s trip. In recent years, the Black Knights have defeated opponents such as Central Florida, Cornell, Eastern Kentucky, Florida, South Florida, Georgetown, Illinois, Indiana, Iowa, Massachusetts, Northern Iowa, Northwestern, Ohio State and Pennsylvania during their spring trip. This season’s spring slate includes games against Sacred Heart, Nebraska-Omaha, Iowa and Illinois State.

MEDIA INFORMATION

PRESS CREDENTIALS

Since there is no admission charge for baseball games at Johnson Stadium at Doubleday Field, there is no need to request credentials in advance. A press box is located behind home plate. Photographers are permitted in foul territory beyond either dugout, but are not allowed in the dugouts or in the area directly behind home plate. Photographers are asked to request field access prior to game day. Please contact Christian Anderson in order to confirm those arrangements.

PARKING

There is ample parking in the Clinton Field and Johnson Stadium at Doubleday Field lots, both of which are located directly adjacent to Doubleday Field. A special pass for both lots is required for weekday games prior to 3 p.m., but beyond that time there are no parking restrictions. Parking is open at all hours for weekend games. Media members are reminded to park a safe distance from the field of play to avoid foul balls.

RADIO/TELEPHONES

Army’s Office of Athletic Communications will provide a telephone line (845-9386013) for one visiting radio station, with commercial groups granted preference over student stations.

WEST POINT 26

2012 ARMY BASEBALL


WEST POINT 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 secondyear 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.

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.

BOO CORRIGAN

Army operates a 25-sport intercollegiate athletic program, highlighted by its nationally recognized football team. Under the direction of head coach Rich Ellerson the Black Knights finished 7-6 this season and closed the season with a win over SMU in the Bell Helicopter Armed Forces Bowl. A supervisor of the 2009 NCAA Champion women’s tennis and 2010 NCAA Champion men’s lacrosse programs, Corrigan has been a part of three NCAA Championships at Duke in just two seasons.

HEAD COACH JOE SOTTOLANO JOE SOTTOLANO HEAD COACH 13TH SEASON ITHACA COLLEGE, 1990

Joe Sottolano has been very forthright regarding the lofty goals he’s established for his Army baseball program ever since taking the reins of the club. There’s very little guess work involved because his sights remain fixed on the same target every year: capture a Patriot League championship and win in the NCAA Tournament. “In my opinion, those should always be the goals for this program,” Sottolano is quick to stress. “We should never aspire to anything less.” No one can debate the feasibility of that mission considering that Army finds itself in the midst of the most successful eight-year stretch in school history. In addition to making three trips to the NCAA Regionals in that time, the Black Knights have registered at least 25 wins in seven of the last eight seasons, captured five Patriot League regular-season championships and made seven appearances in the Patriot League Tournament during that span. Army has posted four 30-win campaigns during the run.

30

Last year’s squad made a run to the Patriot League Championship Series, before falling to Navy in three games. The Black Knights finished 2011 with a 22-26 mark. The 2010 team posted a 28-17 overall record and won the Patriot League’s regular-season title with a conference mark of 16-4. The Black Knights bowed out of the league tournament in the semifinal series, however, falling to Bucknell in three games. Following a slow start to its conference slate in 2009, the Black Knights caught fire down the stretch, sprinting to the top of the Patriot League standings by winning 12 of their final 14 conference tilts. The late-season run ensured Army a share of its second straight regular season Patriot League title and the No. 2 seed in the conference tournament. Army captured its fifth Patriot League championship by beating Holy Cross in a Patriot League Tournament semifinal series before dispatching Lafayette in two consecutive games in the Patriot League Championship Series. But Army really made its mark on the national scene three years ago when the Black Knights reached the finals of the Austin Regional. It marked the first time the Black Knights, or any Patriot League team for that matter, reached a regional final. Seeded fourth at the Austin Regional, Army suffered a hard-fought 3-1 loss to No. 1 national seed Texas in an opening-round matchup before stunning both second-seeded Texas State and third-seeded Boston College en route to a rematch with Texas in the Austin Regional Final. The Black Knights carried a 10-6 lead into the bottom of the ninth inning of that contest and found themselves three outs away from a second “championship” clash with the Longhorns that would have sent the winner to the Super Regionals. But a weary Army pitching staff tired and Texas prevailed 14-10, ending the Black Knights’ Cinderella run. On its way to a third NCAA Regional appearance in six years and an overall record of 36-21, Army established or tied 67 school and Patriot League individual and team records. For the third time in six years, Army received votes in the final National Collegiate Baseball Writers Association (NCBWA) national poll (2004, 2005, 2009). Overall, the 13th-year mentor sports a 321-248-5 (.564) career coaching record and is 242-161-2 (.600) the past eight years along the banks of the Hudson. While directing Army to its most successful eight-year stretch in school history, Sottolano has also guided the Black Knights to unparalleled success against arch rival Navy. Army captured a school-record eighth straight series “star” following

last season’s split at West Point. The Black Knights have captured 27 of the last 36 contests against the Midshipmen over the past eight years. Army won three of four games against Navy in 2009 and 2010, swept four games from Navy in 2008, took three of four regular-season meetings with the Mids in 2007, then dismissed Navy from the Patriot League Tournament with a 5-3 victory in the PLT Elimination Game. Navy’s last series win dates back to 2003, when the Mids nabbed three of four verdicts from the Black Knights. Since that time, Army registered its first four-game sweep of Navy in 2005, its first four-game sweep in Annapolis (2008), and captured three of four regular season series pairings in 2004, 2006, 2007, 2009 and 2010, while ending the Mids’ season in the Patriot League tourney in 2007. Last season, Sottolano accomplished another significant personal milestone when he picked up his 300th coaching victory of his career. He reached the figure following Army’s 10-6 victory over Davidson on February 19, 2011. He notched his 250th career win against arch-rival Navy on April 12, 2009, in the back end of a doubleheader sweep of the Mids. Army accomplished the feat in style, posting a 6-0 shutout and securing the team’s sixth consecutive “star” against Navy. Ironically, Sottolano registered his 200th career victory against Navy as well, garnering that victory almost exactly two years to the day (April 21, 2007), in the third game of the teams’ four-game series. Sottolano surpassed Dan Roberts (281 wins) as Army’s all-time winningest coach two years ago, and begins his 13th season with a program-record 321 victories. Sottolano started his career as an assistant under Roberts. Sottolano added to his long list of honors in the summer of 2009 when he was named the ABCA/ Diamond Sports Company NCAA Division I Regional Coach of the Year. Outstanding pitching has been a hallmark of the

HEAD COACH JOE SOTTOLANO following season, Sottolano’s club closed the year with a flourish, winning 14 of its last 16 contests. A dominant pitching staff was key to that success, accounting for five shutouts in the last 10 games. In fact, Army’s talented young staff yielded more than two runs in just two of the Black Knights’ final 11 outings. With a squad rife with freshmen and sophomores in 2003, Army closed at 17-25-1 overall, narrowly missing the Patriot League Tournament on the final day of the season. That promising performance set the stage for the Black Knights’ magical two-year run that followed, a tear through the Patriot League that culminated in their third conference title in six years in 2005. Sottolano led the Black Knights to a Patriot League Tournament title and the school’s second NCAA Tournament berth in 2004 after guiding Army to a conference crown and the school’s first NCAA Regional appearance in 2000. Army captured the Patriot crown after entering as the tourney’s No. 3 seed that season. Despite registering early season victories over the likes of nationally ranked Florida and Iowa during its southern trip in 2004, Army began the season with a 10-9 record. Included in the mark was a disappointing 10-3 loss to Lehigh in the Black Knights’ conference opener. No one could have envisioned what would follow as Army steamrolled to 27 victories over its next 31 games. After dropping their conference debut to Lehigh, the Black Knights reeled off 16 consecutive victories. The winning streak, which spanned three weeks, marked the longest single season victory string in school history and the Black Knights’ longest winning streak of the modern era. It also ranks as the longest winning streak in Patriot League history. Late-game comebacks became commonplace during the record-setting run as Army registered six victories in its final plate appearance. In addition to boasting three “walk-off” wins, the Black Knights overcame a 10-0 deficit to defeat Pace in one nonleague encounter. Sweeping past Lafayette by the scores of 3-1 and 16-2 in the Patriot League Championship Series at Doubleday Field, the Black Knights continued their dominance at West Point. Army posted a gaudy 21-2 record on its home field, establishing school records for home victories and home winning percentage, while enjoying a tremendous home-field advantage. A national coach of the year candidate in both 2004 and 2005, Sottolano guided the Black Knights to a 39-14 record in 2005 and their second consecutive Patriot League championship, only the second time Army had won consecutive league titles of any kind. The Black Knights also registered 17 Patriot League victories that year, a conference record the Black Knights first established in 1994 and equaled in 2004. Named Patriot League Coach of the Year for the second straight season in 2005, Sottolano guided the Black Knights to their fourth Patriot League championship and the school’s third NCAA Regional appearance (all under Sottolano’s watch). In leading Army to its third postseason appearance in six years, the high energy field boss presided over a team that set a single season school record for victories (39) for the second consecutive year and established or tied 85 individual and team, school and Patriot League records. The Black Knights set the previous school record for wins only a year ear-

lier when they posted 37 victories and established or tied 84 league and school standards. For the second consecutive season, Army garnered votes in national polls and boasted a pair of All-America selections, this after featuring two All-America selections, two Freshman All-America choices and an Academic All-America honoree in 2004. Army closed 2005 on a tear, capturing 21 of its last 26 games and 26 of 32 decisions overall. After opening the season with four consecutive losses, the Black Knights won 39 of 49 outings, including six straight during their spring trip to Florida, the first unbeaten southern swing in school history. At year’s end, Army’s overall winning percentage of .736 ranked eighth among national leaders. The Black Knights posted a 19-4 record in 2005 at West Point’s Doubleday Field and enter 2012 having prevailed in 122 of their last 171 home contests (122-47-2) dating back to 2004. That translates into a flashy winning percentage of .719. Army received votes in the NCBWA final poll in both 2004, 2005, and again in 2009. The Black Knights also received votes in the NCBWA preseason poll in 2005, 2006 and 2010, and in Colleigate Baseball’s preseason ranking in 2005 and 2006. Army continued its winning ways under Sottolano in 2006, posting a 30-20-1 record. That marked the first time in school history that the Black Knights notched 30 wins during three consecutive seasons; quite an accomplishment when considering that Army had never won more than 26 games in a season prior to 2004. The Black Knights registered 25 victories in both 2007 and 2008. Featuring a youthful team that had been forecasted for a third place conference finish prior to 2008, Sottolano led the Black Knights to a record fifth consecutive 25-victory season and the program’s fourth regular season Patriot League title. Three members of that squad were selected in the 2008

Black Knights’ recent run of success. Army has ranked among national leaders in earned run average during four of the past eight seasons. The Black Knights ranked seventh nationally in ERA (3.28) in 2006, improving from the No. 8 spot (3.08) they held in the national rankings the previous year. Army also ranked 12th nationally (3.44) in ERA in 2004 and finished 27th in the category in 2008 (3.77). Army was the only Division I team to list in the top 12 nationally in ERA from 2004 through 2006 and one of two clubs to stand in the top eight nationally during the 2005 and 2006 campaigns. Additionally, Army was one of just seven Division I squads to rank among the top 27 teams nationally in earned run average from 2004 through 2007. During that time, the Black Knights’ pitching staff combined to fire 22 shutouts. Army paced the Patriot League in ERA in 2009, ranking 73rd nationally at 5.04. In 2010, the Black Knights topped the conference and ranked 30th in the country with an earned run average of 4.34. Last season, Army led the Patriot League in ERA (conference games only) at 4.30. A native of Middletown, N.Y., Sottolano arrived at the Academy in 1992, serving as an assistant on Army’s baseball staff until his promotion to head coach in 2000. In the midst of his second decade as a member of Army’s baseball staff, Sottolano is in his 13th season presiding over the Black Knights’ diamond program. Following a successful eight-year stint as an assistant on the West Point coaching staff, he was named Army’s interim head coach during the early portion of the 2000 season. Sottolano inherited a team that had captured just one of its first seven games and had been forecasted for a third-place finish in the Patriot League standings in a preseason poll of the conference’s head coaches. He proceeded to instill a quiet sense of confidence in his gritty group of Black Knights. Sottolano quickly imparted his aggressive style of play and relentless attitude on the group, taking charge of the club just three days prior to the beginning of Army’s spring trip to Florida. And the Black Knights responded well to his teachings, winning five of seven games during the venture south to post the school’s finest spring-trip record in more than a decade. The “Cardiac Cadets” would register 18 comefrom-behind victories during the season, with an amazing 12 of those wins coming during Army’s last at-bat. Included in the group was a riveting comeback victory over Bucknell in the Elimination Game of the Patriot League Tournament, a triumph that propelled the Black Knights into the conference’s championship series against regular-season titlist and top seed Navy. Displaying the same type of fire and determination that characterized their season, the Black Knights rode a pair of comeback victories to stun the favored Midshipmen on their home field. There were seven emotionally charged “walk-off” wins in all that season, an incredible number considering that Army notched just 15 victories overall the previous year. Shortly after leading the Black Knights to their first NCAA Regional appearance, Sottolano was rewarded for his marvelous efforts by having the “interim” label lifted from his title. The Black Knights lost several key players from that championship squad and slumped to a 1727-1 overall record in 2001. After a slow start the

Major League Baseball First-Year Player Draft, the highest single-season total in school history. Despite those graduation losses, Army posted its most successful showing the following year. Prior to assuming the role as Army’s head coach, Sottolano served as an assistant to former head coach Dan Roberts for eight years. Sottolano, who added the title of instructor in the Military Academy’s Department of Physical Education in the fall of 1994, shouldered primary responsibilities as Army’s pitching coach, while tending to all other facets of the program during that period. Sottolano, who graduated from Ithaca College in 1990 with a bachelor’s degree in physical education, was a four-year varsity letterwinner as a lefthanded pitcher and a member of Bomber squads that made four consecutive appearances at the NCAA Division III Regionals. Voted Most Outstanding Player in the 1988 College World Series, he registered a 21-9 career record, posting a 3.26 earned run average and guided the Bombers to a Division III national title. Though his collegiate career ended that spring, Sottolano continued hurling. He was one of 36 players nation-wide invited to try out for Team USA that summer and remained one of the premier pitchers in the Hudson Valley Rookie League. Highly respected among Eastern baseball circles, Sottolano served as pitching coach at Drexel University in the spring of 1991, before returning to Ithaca as the Bombers’ graduate assistant coach that fall. He completed work on a master’s degree in physical education and teaching from Ithaca in 1993. In 1997, Sottolano oversaw a pitching staff that helped Army to a Patriot League championship, the school’s first outright conference title since 1966. He was also chiefly responsible for recruiting that league-winning squad. During the summer of 1999, he served as head coach for the New York Generals of the American Collegiate Baseball League. In his first season at the Generals’ helm, Sottolano guided the team to

Since assuming control of Army’s program, Sottolano has continued to shape the mindset of his club in the form of his own winning persona. He has directed the Black Knights to nine 20-victory seasons, four 30-win showings and seven winning records during his 12 years in charge. He has also instituted an aggressive recruiting plan that has injected a bounty of talent into West Point’s program. During his 20-year association with the Army baseball program, the Black Knights have captured five Patriot League championships (1997, 2000, 2004, 2005, 2009), six regular season league titles (1997, 2004, 2005, 2008, 2009, 2010), one conference divisional crown (1994) and made the only four NCAA Regional trips in school history (2000, 2004, 2005, 2009). Additionally, nine Army players have been selected in the Major League Baseball First-Year Player Draft during his 12year head coaching tenure, including eight since 2005. Two players -- Nick Hill and Milan Dinga -- were chosen in the top 10 rounds of the 2007 draft. Army has featured 63 first team All-Patriot League selections since 1993. Since 2004, 12 different Army players have garnered 34 All-America certificates. The list includes those selected to preseason, postseason, freshman and academic All-America squads.

Sottolano has earned Patriot League Coach of the Year honors twice and remains the only individual in the 21-year history of the conference to earn league coach of the year accolades in back-to-back seasons. Sottolano and his wife, Lori, reside at West Point with their two sons, Nicholas (9), and Tyler (6).

COACHING STAFF

ASSOCIATE HEAD COACH 5TH SEASON RICHMOND, 2002

Matt Reid, who rates as one of the bright, young talents in the college baseball coaching ranks, is in his fifth season as a member of Army’s coaching staff. After serving as the Black Knights’ top assistant coach in 2010, Reid picked up the title of associate head coach before last season. Prior to joining head coach Joe Sottolano’s staff in the summer of 2007, Reid had spent the previous two years on the baseball coaching staff at UNC Asheville. Reid focused his work on the club’s infielders and hitters, while assisting with recruiting duties during his tenure at UNC Asheville. In that time, he helped the Bulldogs increase their fielding percentage from .943 to .958. Additionally, UNC Asheville turned a Big South Conference-leading 59 double plays in his last season to rank 34th nationally. Prior to his arrival at Asheville, Reid served as assistant coach at Old Dominion University where he worked with the Monarchs’ outfielders and hitters. He assumed duties as baseball camp director at ODU, and filled the same role at UNC Asheville. A 2002 graduate of Richmond, where he lettered for four years on the baseball diamond, Reid assisted the staff at Virginia Commonwealth University during the 2003-04 season while completing his master’s degree in sport leadership. His experience with organizing fundraisers for non-profit ventures while at VCU included raising money for an area cancer center. Prior to his studies at VCU, Reid served as assistant coach at Louisburg College where his responsibilities

with the baseball team included working with the squad’s infielders and coaching first base. He began his coaching career at Virginia Military Institute. In addition to his collegiate coaching background, Reid has gained extensive experience during the summer months, guiding the Peninsula Pilots of the Coastal Plains League for two years. He led the Pilots to a 34-20 record (.630) and an appearance in the league championship in his first season and finished with a two-year mark of 58-38 (.604) at the Peninsula helm. The native of Amherst, Mass., was selected team captain during his senior year at Richmond and helped the Spiders to a pair of NCAA Regional berths. He graduated in 2001 with a degree in sports administration. Reid, whose father Jim is a member of the University of Virginia football coaching staff after serving as an assistant with the Miami Dolphins and as head football coach at VMI for two years, interned with the front office of the Pittsburgh Pirates during the summer of 2004. He also worked in Richmond’s sports information office as a senior. At West Point, Reid works primarily with Army’s infielders and hitters. Off the field, he focuses attention on national recruiting with an emphasis placed on the East Coast. Under Reid’s direction, Army established a single season school record for fielding percentage in 2009 (.970) after narrowly missing the mark the previous year. Three of the Black Knights’ starting four infielders have earned All-Patriot League honors each of the past three seasons, including Clint Moore, who garnered All-America laurels in 2009. Moore and infield mate Zach Price have been named Patriot League Rookie of the Year during Reid’s tenure at the Academy. Last spring, three Army infielders were named to the All-Patriot League first team with Steve

May joining Moore and Price on the unit. The Black Knights have taken well to Reid’s offensive teachings as well, establishing school records for batting average (.329), base hits (626), doubles (117), triples (18), home runs (57), runs scored (446), runs batted in (408), total bases (950) and slugging percentage (.500) in 2009. It marked the second straight season that Army set school records for doubles and home runs. Army has also improved its slugging percentage by more than 150 points since Reid arrived at West Point. Reid, who has played a large role in the great success Army has experienced in its overall recruiting the past four years, is single and currently resides in Fort Montgomery.

ASSISTANT COACH 3RD SEASON EASTERN CONNECTICUT ST., 2001

ASSISTANT COACH 2ND SEASON WEST POINT, 1992

Anthony DeCicco is in his third season as the Black Knights’ pitching coach after being added to the staff by head coach Joe Sottolano prior to the 2010 campaign. Last season, under the guidance of DeCicco, Army ranked second in the Patriot League in ERA (5.09). The Black Knights led the conference in fewest walks per nine innings, while listing second in opponents’ batting average (.282). Army led the conference in ERA during league games, posting a 4.30 mark versus Patriot League foes. In 2010, DeCicco’s pitching staff topped the Patriot League and ranked 30th nationally in ERA (4.34). The staff also paced the conference in strikeouts per nine innings (7.09). Starting pitcher Matt Fouch earned the conference’s Pitcher of the Year award and was named to the All-Patriot League first team. Relief pitcher Kevin McKague, who established Army’s single-season saves record (13), was unanimously selected to the all-league first unit as well. Before arriving at West Point, DeCicco spent one season as pitching and catching coach, as well as recruiting coordinator, at Fordham University. Prior to his one-year stint in the Bronx, DeCicco logged six years on the coaching staff at the University of Vermont. He arrived at Vermont from Eastern Connecticut State University, where he served on the staff of the 2002 NCAA Division III National Champions. During his stay at Fordham, DeCicco helped the Rams to a fourth-place finish in the Atlantic 10 Conference with a 16-11 mark, despite being tabbed to finish ninth in the preseason poll. As Vermont’s recruiting coordinator, as well as pitching and catching coach, DeCicco was instrumental in the Catamounts capturing the program’s first two America East Conference regularseason championships in 2003 and 2006. Under DeCicco’s tutelage, the Vermont pitching staff excelled, topping America East in team earned run average in both 2002 and 2005, while ranking among national leaders both years. The Catamounts also ranked sixth nationally in ERA in 2003. Additionally, seven Vermont pitchers were drafted or signed by Major League baseball organizations from 2003 to 2009. A 2001 graduate of ECSU, DeCicco received his bachelor’s degree in physical education. He earned a master’s degree from Vermont in education and leadership in 2005. DeCicco was a standout catcher during his playing days for the Warriors and joined the staff of longtime head coach Bill Holowaty following graduation. DeCicco and his wife, Elizabeth, have a son, Theodore (6) and a daughter, Peyton (3). The family resides in nearby New Windsor, N.Y.

Lt. Col. Dave Bororwicz is currently in the second season of his third tour on the Army coaching staff, having served as an athletic intern with the baseball program following his graduation from the Academy during the spring of 1992 and assisting the Black Knights during the 2003 and 2004 campaigns. After leaving West Point following the 2004 baseball season, Borowicz spent a year at Fort Leavenworth, Kan. From there, he was assigned to the 2nd Brigade, 10th Mountain Division where he served as the Brigade Engineer (2005-2006) and the Battalion Executive Officer of 2nd Brigade Special Troops Battalion (2006-2007). While there, Borowicz spent 15 months serving in Iraq as part of the surge for Operation Iraqi Freedom. His unit was awarded the Meritorious Unit Citation for their performance while deployed and was influential in the SunniAwakening south of Baghdad. After returning from Iraq, Borowicz and his family moved to Madison, Wis., and he pursued a doctorate in Civil and Environmental Engineering. He received his PhD in December of 2010 in Civil and Environmental Engineering and arrived back at West Point in January to teach in the Department of Civil & Mechanical Engineering. Borowicz has been presented with several military awards, to include: the Bronze Star Medal, the Meritorious Service Medal, the Army Commendation Medal, the Army Achievement Medal, the National Defense Service Medal, the Iraq Campaign Medal, the Global War on Terrorism Service Medal, the Humanitarian Service Medal, the Military Outstanding Volunteer Service Medal, the Army Service Ribbon, the Overseas Service Ribbon, the Air Assault Badge and the Combat Action Badge. A four-time letterwinner during his years in the “Black, Gold, and Gray,” Borowicz was a standout pitcher for the Black Knights, holding a regular turn in Army’s starting rotation for three consecutive years. A district Academic AllAmerica selection and Rhodes scholar candidate as a senior, the former team captain was a member of Army teams that defeated arch-rival Navy in four consecutive “star” matchups. Borowicz will forever be etched into the Army record books having been credited with a save against Long Island as a freshman in 1989, helping to secure the program’s 1,000th all-time victory. Three years later, he narrowly missed writing a bit more history when his bid to throw the fourth no-hitter in school history fell just short, settling for a one-hit defeat of Princeton. The native of Milwaukee, Wis., ranks 25th on Army’s career innings pitched list at 157.0, while is career earned run average mark of 4.47 lists among the Black Knights all-time leaders. The Midwestern product assists in the instruction of Army’s pitchers and outfielders on the diamond. Borowicz and his wife, Cindy, reside at West Point with their daughters, Maggie, 17, and Allison, 16; and son, Josh, 10.

NCAA REGIONALS 2000 • 2004 • 2005 • 2009

2012 SEASON OUTLOOK After coming within just a few innings of capturing its sixth Patriot League tournament title last spring, the Army baseball program is determined to return to its championship form this season. The Black Knights won three straight Patriot League regular-season championships before falling one game short in the conference standings last season. Army swept Lafayette in the Patriot League semifinals series, before dropping the PLCS in three highly competitive games. Army lost several key contributors from last year’s squad to graduation, but a solid nucleus returns to the fold hungry to lead the program to its fourth regular-season conference title in the past five years. One of the Patriot League’s preeminent programs, Army has captured six regular-season Patriot League titles and five Patriot League tournament crowns since joining the circuit in 1993. Five of those regular-season championships have come in the last eight years, a span that has seen the Black Knights earn seven trips to the league’s seasonending tournament. Army also sent eight players to the minor leagues last decade, more than any other Patriot League program during that time. Sottolano has guided Army to the NCAAs four times since taking over the reins of the program 13 years ago. The Black Knights have won at least 22 games in eight straight seasons and advanced to the NCAA Regionals three times during that stretch. In order to maintain that form in 2012, Army must replace two starters on the left side of the infield and two more in the outfield. The Black Knights graduated one of the most successful classes in program history last May, and it will not be easy to forget all-conference standouts Joey Henshaw, Ben Koenigsfeld, Steve May and Clint Moore. That quartet combined to account for 69.7 percent of Army’s home runs (23 of 33) and 55.5 percent of Army’s RBI (132 of 238) last season. Moore, a four-time league all-star at shortstop, graduated as the Academy’s all-time leader in home runs, doubles, RBI, runs scored, total bases and slugging percentage. Sottolano is confident that some of those holes have been filled after watching his young squad turn

36

in a strong showing during the non-traditional fall season. It was during that developmental portion of games and practices that he and the coaching staff were able to evaluate and identify some of the key cogs to this year’s squad. “We had very consistent at-bats and approaches during the fall season,” said Sottolano. “I liked the tenacity and toughness the club brought to the field. Some of the new players have that same type of toughness that we’re looking for. That’s something we hopes carries over to the spring.” Seniors Zach Price and J.T. Watkins, who were the only two Black Knights to start all 48 games last season, will serve as the team’s co-captains this season. Sottolano feels that his squad is in good hands with Price and Watkins serving in key leadership roles. “Zach Price is a leader by presence,” said Sottolano. “He’s an intense competitor who gives 100 percent every single day. He arrives at practice early and stays. He never takes a rep off, and he’s very consistent at what he does. He’s a person of few words, but when he speaks, you listen. “J.T. leads by presence, but he’s also very vocal,” added Sottolano. “He’s an extremely determined young man, and I think both he and Zach do an outstanding job of leading our team.” Price bounced back from an inconsistent sophomore season with a terrific junior campaign last spring. The diminutive second baseman played very well defensively and served as the key catalyst at the top of the Black Knights’ batting order. His efforts earned him a spot on the All-Patriot League first team. Watkins, meanwhile, was exceptional defensively once again last season. The Black Knights’ backstop, who has started behind the dish since arriving at West Point four years ago, also shined offensively in 2011. He batted .298 with five extrabase hits and 27 RBI en route to his first All-Patriot League selection. Army also returns senior Kevin McKague, who was granted a waiver from the NCAA after missing the majority of last season with an injury. When healthy, McKague excels in a variety of roles for the

LOGAN LEE Black Knights. He’s a strong defensive infielder, one of the most powerful hitters in Army’s lineup, and also serves as the team’s shutdown closer out the bullpen. Sottolano figures to be putting together a much younger lineup than he did last season. While that can be viewed as a challenge, Army’s mentor sees positives in having so much youth on the roster. “The nice thing is that young kids are sponges,” said Sottolano. “They really listen, work hard and have something to prove. They are always very determined. The key is having the upperclassmen lead them to success and sticking with them through times of struggle. I think it will be crucial for the older guys to help develop them. You’ll start to see the game slow down for some of these freshmen about midway through the season, and at that point they won’t really be freshmen anymore.” With such a relatively young lineup, Army will lean on its experienced pitching staff early in the season. The Black Knights return all four of their weekend starters from a year ago, as well as several key bullpen arms. Senior Logan Lee leads Army’s contingent of starters, having emerged as the Black Knights’ ace last season. Senior Scott Lucado, junior Chris Rowley and sophomore Nick Dignacco, who rounded out Army’s Patriot League rotation last spring, all return to the fold as well. “We return all four of our weekend starters from last season, which is good,” said Sottolano. “I think they all have the ability to throw a very good ball game on any given day. The biggest thing we need to see is consistency from each of them, and that starts with locating their pitches for strikes.”

2012 SEASON OUTLOOK

SCHEDULE

ZACH PRICE Lee and Rowley ranked among the Patriot League leaders last season in earned run average, strikeouts, wins, complete games and innings pitched. Army was a perfect 5-0 in Patriot League games started by Lucado, and Dignacco took the ball in the third game of the Patriot League Championship Series at Navy. All four return poised to make an impact on this year’s team. Senior Manny Fernandez returns to the bullpen after missing last season due to injury. The Black Knights’ relief corps also returns sophomore Gunnar Carroll and junior John Buckley, who pitched key innings for Army last spring. Although Army may be a bit younger and less experienced this year as compared to recent seasons, Sottolano is confident that the Black Knights are capable of vying for a Patriot League title and returning to the NCAA postseason. “I think you look at each ball club individually,” said Sottolano. “You coach each ball club differently. This team is about repetitions, playing the game and developing confidence. We need to make sure that the younger players understand that their better days are coming as they develop. “There are a lot of questions, but not questions about our athletic ability or our ability to succeed,” noted Sottolano. “There are questions that time is going to tell.

Army opens the season with a three-game series at High Point over the weekend of Feb. 17-19. The Black Knights then play three-game road sets at George Washington (Feb. 25-26) and UMBC (March 2-4) before traveling to Florida for their annual spring break trip. Army will test itself in the Sunshine State, facing Sacred Heart in a three-game series and locking horns with Nebraska-Omaha, Iowa and Illinois State. The Black Knights return to West Point on March 20 for a midweek contest versus Quinnipiac. Army then welcomes Ivy League foe Harvard to Doubleday Field for a four-game series over the weekend of March 24-25. After a midweek contest at Columbia (March 28), Army begins its Patriot League schedule at Navy (March 31-April 1). The Black Knights then return to West Point to host Manhattan on April 4, before taking on Lehigh (April 7-8). After a road test at Siena (April 10), Army kicks off its season-long 10-game homestand by hosting Fairleigh Dickinson on April 11. The Black Knights continue their homestand with a four-game series opposite Lafayette (April 14-15), a midweek tilt against Saint Peter’s (April 18) and a four-game set versus Bucknell (April 21-22). Army then finishes its regular-season slate with six straight road games. The Black Knights travel to Fishkill, N.Y., to take on Marist in the annual Hudson Valley Baseball Classic on April 25, before making the trek to Worcester, Mass., to battle Holy Cross (April 28-29). Army then closes out the regular season with a road game at NYIT. “I think we have a solid schedule again this year,” said Sottolano. “The key for us is to get out and play. Society and people in general gauge success based on wins and losses, and I believe that winning is absolutely important in what we’re all striving for, but it’s a battle as opposed to a war. We have to understand that we might lose some battles here and there, but we have to keep the bigger picture in mind. This club needs to be resilient, and that’s something we have always taken great pride in.”

be sorely missed. The All-Patriot League selection, who batted .305 with 21 RBI in 2011, also played a steady third base. Senior Zach Price, who has been entrenched as the Black Knights’ starting second baseman since arriving at the Academy three years ago, figures to anchor Army’s infield this season. Price, who was one of just two Army players to start all 48 games for the Black Knights in 2011, produced his best offensive season since his rookie campaign of 2009. The Cantonment, Fla., native led Army last season in batting average (.331), base hits (56), runs scored (39), on-base percentage (.472), walks (34) and stolen bases (13). Price held down the leadoff spot in the Black Knights’ batting order throughout the year, serving as one of the catalysts for the Black Knights’ offense. In addition to his offensive exploits, Price recorded a fielding percentage of .987. He made only three errors in 228 defensive chances. “Zach has really developed throughout his time at West Point,” said Army head coach Joe Sottolano. “He came in as a very strong offensive player, but just an average defensive player. He has evolved into an exceptional second baseman and an allconference player.”

nity to succeed and we’re going to meet those challenges head on.”

INFIELD Army will have to replace two starters on the infield following the graduation of All-Patriot League performers Steve May (3B) and Clint Moore (SS). May and Moore both earned all-conference accolades last spring, and their graduation creates two large holes on the left side of the infield. Moore graduated as Army’s all-time leader in home runs (35), RBI (185), doubles (51), runs scored (174), total bases (413) and slugging percentage (.589). The four-time All-Patriot League selection was also an ultra-talented defensive shortstop, who saved several runs with his incredible plays. May, who had the knack for coming up with big hits for the Black Knights last season, will also

NCAA REGIONALS 2000 • 2004 • 2005 • 2009

2012 SEASON OUTLOOK Sottolano envisions Price returning to his familiar spot at the top of Army’s batting order once again this spring. His ability to work counts, see a lot of pitches and find a way on base will make him a vital cog to Army’s offensive plans in 2012. Senior Kevin McKague, who was injured just 12 games into last season, returns to the Army program for a fifth season after being granted a medical redshirt by the NCAA. McKague, who already lists among Army’s alltime leaders in several offensive categories, has the ability to play either of the corner infield spots. McKague held down the first base position over the first four years of his career, but boasts the athleticism and arm strength required to excel at third base. “Having Kevin back gives us a lot of experience, leadership and knowledge,” explained Sottolano. “Those characteristics will be invaluable and helpful in bringing along some of our younger infielders. He is an outstanding first baseman, and versatile enough that he may even spend some time at third base.” A prodigious power threat, who also hits for a high average, McKague figures to bat near the middle of Army’s lineup. The Fayetteville, N.C., product batted cleanup nine times and hit out of the fivehole on three occasions last season before an injury derailed his 2011 campaign. Junior Sean McIlroy, who was Army’s most productive pinch-hitter last season, will vie for more atbats at DH this spring. McIlroy boasts a powerful swing from the left side of the plate. Sophomore Connor Love, who exploded offensively during Army’s fall season, has emerged as the favorite to play first base when McKague moves over to third. Love, a catcher by trade, has impressed the coaching staff with his ability to pick up the nuances of playing first base. A native of Beaverton, Ore., Love appeared in just three contests as a freshman last season. The time he put in developing his skills during his plebe campaign should pay off this year. Sottolano will look for Love to occupy a spot somewhere near the middle of Army’s batting order. “Connor had a breakthrough fall and has evolved into one of our better hitters,” said Sottolano. “He possesses a lot of confidence and a great deal of swagger. He’s an outstanding leader and ultimate team player, who has developed into the player we hoped he would become. He’s a person we feel has to be in our lineup, and will see time at first base, catcher and designated hitter.” Fellow sophomore Patrick Mescher will push for time at first base this spring as well. The Versailles, Ohio, native is a strong athlete with a great deal of power. His ability to develop in the field and find consistency at the plate will go a long way toward dictating his playing time. “Patrick’s biggest thing is finding consistency,” said Sottolano. “He’s a big, strong young man who could have a breakout year for us. He could definitely provide some offensive pop in our lineup.” Freshman Alex Jensen appears to be the odds on favorite to take over for Moore at shortstop in 2012. A talented infield prospect who hails from Charlotte, N.C., Jensen enters West Point with an abundance of tools. “Alex is very consistent and hard-nosed,” said Sottolano. “He’s a fierce competitor, who loves playing the game. I think he plays his best when the lights are on, and he’s someone that will shine throughout the season. He’s a guy that you need to kick out of the gym every day because he just

continually wants to improve.” Fellow freshman Harold Earls figures to see time at the “hot corner” when McKague plays first base. The Cumming, Ga., native features a strong throwing arm and soft hands. Earls loves playing the game, and brings a great deal of tenacity to the ballpark every day. “Harold is a very good infielder who is still maturing and coming into his own,” said Sottolano. “He’s still fighting to understand the position a little bit better, and he needs to slow the game down some. He has a passion for the game and I believe he has a bright future in an Army uniform.” Sottolano feels that the Black Knights’ infield will feature an athletic group of performers this season. Price, Jensen and Earls could play three positions, and McKague is certainly capable of playing two spots. This versatility figures to serve Army well early in the season as the young Black Knights find their way.

OUTFIELD Army will need to replace two of its three starting outfielders this season after losing Ben Koenigsfeld and David Darnell to graduation. Koenigsfeld, who earned a total of five All-Patriot League certificates during his standout career, batted .301 with six home runs and 32 RBI last season out of the twohole. Koenigsfeld also excelled defensively in 2011, handling 73 defensive chances flawlessly. Darnell, meanwhile, smashed eight doubles and committed just two errors in 80 defensive chances as Army’s regular center fielder. Despite those key losses, Sottolano is confident that the players currently on the roster will be up to the challenge. “We like the talent that we have in our outfield, CODY MURTLE both the young talent, and the talent that has come through our program and matured” said Sottolano. Mosley appeared in 29 games last season, “We have several outfielders who have the opportu- mostly as a defensive replacement.

“Dakari is a very athletic player who runs well and will have a very bright future in our program,” commented Sottolano. Freshman Daniel Cortes has emerged as the favorite to win the starting position in left field after a productive fall season. “Daniel is a hard-nosed competitor who reminds me a lot of Shaun Salmon as a freshman,” said Sottolano. “He’s a real tough player who competes and runs well. He understands the game, and thrives in big spots.” After seeing some time as a defensive replacement last season, senior Matt Carter will compete with Cortes for playing time this season as well. Carter, who hails from El Paso, Texas, played in nine games in 2011, drawing a pair of starts. “We’re hoping that Matt can become the player we always thought he could be,” added Sottolano. “He has good athletic ability; he just has to put it all together.” Freshman Mark McCants could also vie for playing time in one of the corner outfield spots this season. “Mark is solid player out of Texas, who has seen a lot of big games throughout high school,” said Sottolano. “He could provide some quality at-bats in certain situations.”

CATCHER Senior J.T. Watkins, who started behind the plate in each of Army’s 48 contests in 2011, returns as the Black Knights’ backstop once again this spring. Watkins, who earned All-Patriot League honors for the first time in his career last season with his inclusion on the second unit, will serve as one of Army’s two co-captains this year along with classmate Zach Price.

2012 SEASON OUTLOOK Championship Series at Navy, figures to return to his spot in Army’s rotation this year as well. The second-year lefty from Sharon, Conn., is brimming with confidence following a freshman showing that saw him post a 4.95 earned run average with 21 strikeouts in 36.1 innings of work. “Nick really developed during the fall,” said Sottolano. “I am particularly impressed with the improvement of his change-up. He was very good as a freshman last season, and I anticipate even greater things from him this year.” Senior Scott Lucado returns for his final season at West Point after serving as the Black Knights’ fourth weekend starter in 2011. The Austin, Texas, product was one of the biggest surprises of Army’s season last year as the Black Knights went 5-0 in Patriot League games that he started. He finished with a 1-0 mark and a 4.12 earned run average. Lucado will be challenged by sophomore Gunnar Carroll and freshman Alex Robinett for that fourth starter position this spring. Carroll served as one of Army’s most consistent relief pitchers last season, appearing in a team-high 20 games and posting a 4.50 earned run average. Robinett, meanwhile, enters the Academy with a great deal of potential. “Alex throws hard, and he has a very good breaking ball,” said Sottolano. “He is also very strong mentally, which is something that I love. He brings a lot of intangibles to the team.” Sophomore Colin Briant, who stepped up as one of Army’s best midweek starters last season, will play a significant role once again this spring. Briant posted a 1-2 record with 15 strikeouts in 21.1 innings as a freshman in 2011. Senior Kevin McKague figures to return to his familiar spot at the back end of the Army bullpen. The lights-out closer missed most of last season due to an injury, but is back for a fifth year of eligibility after the NCAA granted him a medical redshirt. McKague, who set the Army single-season record with 13 saves as a junior in 2010, looks to regain the form that made him a two-time Stopper of the

Year Watch List honoree. McKague showed flashes of brilliance in limited work last season, striking out four batters in 3.2 innings and recording one save. The Fayetteville, N.C., native needs just six more saves to surpass Milan Dinga (USMA ’07) and become the Black Knights’ all-time saves leader. “I think the bullpen has a lot of length to it, and we will be capable of presenting opponents with a lot of different looks this spring,” said Sottolano. “There are several very talented pitchers in our bullpen.” Senior Manny Fernandez, who served as Army’s set-up man two years ago, also returns after missing the entire 2011 campaign due to injury. Fernandez appears to be at 100 percent, and should help strengthen an already talented bullpen. “Manny has the ability to close, but I anticipate him returning to his role as one of our top set-up men,” added Sottolano. Junior John Buckley is coming off the best year of his career last season. The sidearm specialist went 2-0 with the third-best earned run average on the team (3.81) in 2011. Fellow junior Ken Jackson is also in the mix for relief work following a steady sophomore campaign that saw him tie for the team lead with five victories. “Ken had a solid season for us last year,” said Sottolano. “He is knowledgeable and athletic. He helped us win a big ball game down at Lafayette last year, and that big-game experience will help him moving forward. We are looking for Ken to become a little more consistent, and I think you’ll see more success from him as his velocity increases.” Sophomore Eric Washburn, who was hurt coming out of high school, is a hard-nosed competitor who will add a lot of intangibles to the pitching staff. “Eric could be a midweek starter or a relief guy,” said Sottolano. “It will be interesting to watch him develop, because I believe he has a place in our program.” In addition to the accomplished veterans, Sot-

KEN JACKSON tolano and his staff have also recruited several talented pitching prospects to West Point. Freshman Taylor Goucher is a side-arm specialist with a good breaking ball. Fellow classmate Andrew Flaherty is a tall right-hander with a good arm, who could see time as a midweek starter or long reliever. Freshman Brian Hapeman boasts a high -quality arm, who could act as a starter or reliever when healthy.

DIAMOND HISTORY MORE THAN A CENTURY OF TRADITION

ARMY’S 1928 BASEBALL SQUAD Football is not the only sport at the United States Militar y Academy owning a long and storied tradition. After celebrating its 100th anniversary in 1990, the intercollegiate baseball program at West Point thrives today, with a history that rivals any in the country. Not only was baseball the first organized sport at the Academy, but the game’s originator, Abner Doubleday, is an 1842 West Point graduate. Sometime during the Civil War, a sophomore cadet requested permission to purchase some baseball equipment in an effort to generate interest in the sport. Four years later, games were being played between the Academy’s four classes. The Black Knights began formally playing the sport in 1890, when a decision was made to adopt baseball as part of the athletic program at West Point. More than a century has passed, but the sport still thrives along the banks of the Hudson, as it has since that first historic game against the Riverton Club of Philadelphia, 122 years ago. Overall, Army teams have posted a 1,526-1,274-41 record (.544), with victory No. 1,000 coming in a 9-7 decision over Long Island University in 1989. The Black Knights played the 2,500th intercollegiate game in program history in 2005 and recorded their 1,500th win versus Marist in the 2010 Hudson Valley Baseball Classic. When glancing through a list of the Academy’s former diamondmen, prominent names abound. Legends such as Omar Bradley, Louis Merrillat, Vernon Prichard, Robert Neyland and Elmer Oliphant all lettered in baseball while doubling as All-America members of Army’s football team. Earl “Red” Blaik, the winningest football coach in Army history, met with success on the baseball diamond as a cadet, while other notable athletes to leave their cleatmarks on Doubleday Field include Douglas MacArthur, Fred Franks, Ray Odierno, Shane Kimbrough,

William Wood, Russell P. “Red” Reeder and John Roosma. An interesting sidelight is the fact that Christy Mathewson, one of the greatest pitchers in the history of Major League Baseball, served a brief three-week stint as an assistant baseball coach at the Academy in 1908. That marked the beginning of a long association between West Point and the big leagues with the Black Knights playing the first of 68 exhibition games against professional teams in 1914, hosting the New York Giants. No fewer than 16 men have worn the title of Army baseball head coach since 1895, when a cadet, Abraham Lott, served as both coach and captain. The first five Army teams were self-coached, as were the teams from 1897 to 1900. In all, six coaches have won more than 100 games during their tenure, including current field boss Joe Sottolano, who already stands as Army’s all-time leader in career coaching victories after just 12 years in charge. Johnson Stadium at Doubleday Field, “The Home of Army Baseball,” is yet another source of historical nostalgia. Having undergone a major renovation project that added locker room accommodations and chairback seating for fans last decade, the pristine facility received a new natural grass playing surface in 2006. The multi-million dollar project included the addition of new lighted hitting tunnels, sparkling bullpen areas and a host of dugout improvements. This past offseason, the first-ever press box was assembled at Johnson Stadium. A new scoreboard and a padded wall were also installed during the offseason. Doubleday Field had its birth in 1909 when games were first contested on its present site. Thirty years later, upon the centennial celebration of baseball, the playing field was named in honor of Maj. Gen. Abner Doubleday, popularly known as the “Father of Army Baseball.”

The stadium itself was dedicated in 1997 in honor of the family of Rupert H. Johnson (USMA ’21), whose generosity helped enable the Doubleday Society to give the then-87-yearold facility a grand new look. Army and Navy entered the Eastern Intercollegiate Baseball League in 1948, joining the eight Ivy League schools as league members. Four Cadet teams won or shared the league title, three under the guidance of Eric Tipton. Army tied Princeton for first place in 1950, while garnering the title outright in 1960, 1965, and 1966. The Army diamond squad began a new era in 1993, gaining membership in the Patriot League. That association ended a 44-year relationship with the EIBL. After capturing a Patriot League divisional title in 1994, the Black Knights won their first Patriot League championship in 1997. En route to their first outright league crown of any kind since 1966, the Cadets equalled or surpassed 35 team and individual records and placed a total of 10 players on the Patriot League’s two all-star squads at season’s end. Army made further history in 2000, roaring through the Patriot League Championship Series as the No. 3 seed on its way to garnering the first NCAA Regional berth in school history. The “Cardiac Cadets” registered 18 comefrom-behind victories during the spring, with an amazing 12 of those wins coming during Army’s last at-bat. Despite losing twice in their initial NCAA showing, the Black Knights put forth a strong effort, falling by the scores of 4-3 and 3-1 to host and top seed Rutgers, and eventual regional champ Penn State, respectively. Army returned to the NCAA Regionals in 2004 after authoring what, at the time, rated as the most successful season in school history. The Black Knights, who fashioned a thenschool-record 37 wins (37-15), equaled or tied 84 team and individual, school and Patriot League standards on their way to capturing their second conference title in five years. Army put forth another strong showing at the NCAAs, losing to host and eventual regional champ LSU (9-0) and College of Charleston (2-1). The Black Knights received votes in the final National Collegiate Baseball Writers Association (NCBWA) poll for their first end-of-season national recognition. For the first time in Patriot League history, a school swept all four of the conference’s major postseason awards as Sottolano, Schuyler Williamson, Nick Hill and Milan Dinga earned Patriot League Coach of the Year, Player of the Year, Pitcher of the Year and Rookie of the Year honors, respectively. Additionally, Nate Stone became only the third Army player, and the first in four decades, to be selected to one of the All-America teams as voted by the American

DIAMOND HISTORY

Baseball Coaches Association (ABCA). Previous honorees include Ed Haydash (1963) and Barry DeBolt (1966). Army also featured a pair of Freshman AllAmerica selections in 2004 with Dinga and Hill collecting honors. Hill became the first Army freshman to earn All-America laurels when he was named to the Third Team All-America squad by Collegiate Baseball. As memorable as 2004 was in the minds of Army followers, 2005 proved even better. In addition to making their second straight postseason trip as Patriot League champions, the Black Knights notched their first NCAA Regional win by defeating South Alabama (8-5). The victory came less than 24 hours after Army nearly shocked top-seeded Florida State, before falling to the host Seminoles 3-2. Named Patriot League Coach of the Year for the second straight season, Sottolano guided the Black Knights to their fourth Patriot League championship and the school’s third NCAA Regional appearance. For the second straight year, Army players swept the conference’s top three postseason awards as Kyle Scogin was named conference player of the year, Hill repeated as the league’s pitcher of the year and Cole White copped the circuit’s rookie of the year honors. Finishing off the most successful back-toback seasons in school history, Army made its third postseason appearance in six years. For the second straight spring, the Black Knights established a single season school record for victories (39), one of 85 team and individual, school and league records they established or tied throughout the season. For the second consecutive year, Army garnered votes in the final NCBWA national poll and boasted a pair of All-America selections. While Hill was named to the ABCA second team All-America squad, Scogin was selected to the third unit. Army also registered 17 Patriot League victories in 2005, a conference record the Black Knights first established in 1994 and equaled in 2004. Continuing a level of unparalleled success in the program’s history, Army registered at least 30 wins for the third consecutive season in 2006. It marked the first time that the Black

Knights reeled off at least 30 wins in three straight years. At season’s end, Dinga was named to the NCBWA’s Third Team All-America squad as a relief pitcher. Hill became the latest Army player to represent his country on the baseball diamond in 2006, earning a roster spot on the USA National Baseball Team. He was the first Black Knight to play for Team USA since Steve Reich did so in 1993 and became only the second Army player to don the “Red, White and Blue.” After being selected in the seventh round of the 2007 Major League Baseball First-Year Player Draft by the Seattle Mariners, Hill has steadily risen through the minor league ranks. He became the first Army player invited to Major League spring training camp in 2010 after reaching the Triple-A level with the Mariners in 2009. Hill and Dinga had become the first two Army players selected in the top 10 rounds of the major league draft in 2007. Dinga was chosen in the 10th round of the selection process by the Los Angeles Angels, three rounds after Hill was selected by Seattle. Army extended its current school-record streak of 25-victory seasons to seven in 2010. The Black Knights won their third straight Patriot League regular-season title and Matt Fouch was named the conference’s Pitcher of the Year. Fouch went on to be drafted by the Atlanta Braves in Major League Baseball’s First-Year Player Draft. The Black Knights maintained their recent domination of Navy last spring, claiming their eighth consecutive series “star” against the Mids and ran its six-year record against their arch rivals to 27-9, the Black Knights’ most lopsided stretch in the long matchup’s history. Army finished its most successful season at 36-21 overall in 2009 and posted two wins at the Austin Regional, reaching the final of a regional for the first time in school history. Ben Koenigsfeld, who became the first player in Patriot League history to earn first team allleague laurles at two different positions in the same season, was named conference pitcher of the year, while Zach Price was selected league rookie of the year. Joey Henshaw and Clint Moore became the latest Black Knights selected to the ABCA All-America team, while Price was named a Freshman All-American.

ABNER DOUBLEDAY

Army also received votes in the final NCBWA national poll for the third time in six years (2004, 2005, 2009). During the 2010 campaign, Army recorded the 1,500th win in program history and posted a 16-4 Patriot League mark en route to winning its third straight conference regular-season crown. Last season, Army fell just short in its bid to win the Patriot League title and advance to the NCAA Regionals, falling to Navy in the Patriot League Championship Series in three games. Five Black Knights were named to AllPatriot League teams, including four first-team selections. Assuming the reins as Army’s 16th field boss in 2000, Sottolano has built a championship juggernaut to compete on the national level. He has directed the Black Knights to four 30win seasons and the only four NCAA Regional appearances in school history. Since entering the conference in 1993, Army has featured 67 first team All-Patriot League selections, garnering eight conference pitcher of the year, four player of the year and four rookie of the year citings. Army players have been named Patriot League Pitcher of the Year six times in the last 11 years. Additionally, 12 different Black Knights have copped a total of 34 different All-America honors (preseason, postseason, freshman, academic) the past eight years and nine Army players have been selected in Major League Baseball’s First-Year Player Draft. Throughout Army’s long history, Black Knight pitchers boast three no-hitters to their credit. Neyland threw Army’s first no-hitter when he beat Colgate 8-0 in 1914. Four decades later, Rod Vitty no-hit Swarthmore 3-0 in 1955 before Jon Rindfleisch fired a no-hitter at the Little Quakers in 1957.

NOT ONLY WAS BASEBALL THE FIRST ORGANIZED SPORT AT THE ACADEMY, BUT THE GAME’S ORIGINATOR, ABNER DOUBLEDAY, IS AN 1842 WEST POINT GRADUATE. SOMETIME DURING THE CIVIL WAR, A SOPHOMORE CADET REQUESTED PERMISSION TO PURCHASE SOME BASEBALL EQUIPMENT IN AN EFFORT TO GENERATE INTEREST IN THE SPORT. FOUR YEARS LATER, GAMES WERE BEING PLAYED BETWEEN THE ACADEMY’S FOUR CLASSES.

NCAA REGIONALS 2000 • 2004 • 2005 • 2009

GREAT MOMENTS IN ARMY HISTORY 1890 The first truly organized sport at the U.S. Military Academy was baseball, which begins in 1890, playing a three-game schedule against the Riverton Club of Philadelphia, the Sylvans Club of New York, and the Atlantics from Governors Island. The first game against Riverton ends in an 8-8 tie, but Army wins the other two contests.

1908 Hall-of-Famer Christy Mathewson, one of the greatest pitchers in Major League Baseball history, serves a brief, three-week stint on the Cadets’ coaching staff. So begins a long association between West Point and the big leagues.

1909 Army’s Baseball Field is first laid out at its present location. A new skinned diamond is constructed early in the season on the grass plot south of “Cadet Camp.” It proves to be a great improvement in every way over the old diamond on the infantry plain. Prior to the installation of a temporary fence in the 1970s, established to satisfy Eastern League regulations, the dimensions of the field measured 325 feet down the left field line, 434 feet to straightaway center field and a monstrous 535 feet down the right field line. For several years, the field is known as “the main baseball diamond” or “the baseball field near the Cadet Camp.”

1939 Marking the nation’s centennial celebration of baseball, Army’s home field is dedicated to the memory of Maj. Gen. Abner Doubleday on May 17. The 1842 West Point graduate is credited with devising the game of baseball while on leave from the Academy in 1939.

1944 The New York Giants, New York Yankees, Brooklyn Dodgers and Montreal Expos all travel to the United States Military Academy for exhibition games against Army’s baseball team. In all, five games are contested, with Army posting an 8-6 victory against a team comprised of Montreal Royals (Triple-A) and Brooklyn Dodgers rookies.

1945 Army registers its first and only two victories over a Major League team by defeating the Brooklyn Dodgers twice in three matchups at Doubleday Field. It also marks the final year that the Dodgers hold their spring training camp at nearby Bear Mountain. The Cadets prove their wins over “Dem Bums” are no fluke, posting a 15-0 collegiate record, the second undefeated season in school history and the first since 1890.

1950

1914 As a favor to Army head coach Sammy Strang, legendary manager John McGraw sends a group of his New York Giants rookies to West Point for an exhibition game against Army’s varsity squad on May 9. The Giants prevail 7-2 in a contest that marks the first of 85 exhibition games scheduled between Army and Major League teams from 1914 to 1986. Sixty-eight of those matchups were actually played, although a small number were called after a few innings due to rain. During several years, more than one team traveled to West Point.

1914 Bob Neyland, Army’s career leader in pitching victories, fires the first no-hitter in Army history, blanking Colgate 8-0. The Army sophomore posts a remarkable 35-5 record during his days in the Black, Gold and Gray (1913-16). Neyland would go on to football coaching greatness at the University of Tennessee and would eventually be inducted into the College Football Hall of Fame and Army Sports Hall of Fame.

1934 Playing his final game at West Point on June 11, New York Yankees legend Babe Ruth launches a ball to the tennis court fences in right field, a distance of well over 500 feet. It remains arguably the longest ball ever hit at Doubleday Field.

Army claims a share of the school’s first conference title, tying Princeton for the Eastern Intercollegiate Baseball League crown under the direction head coach Paul Amen.

1955 Senior right-hander Rod Vitty fires Army’s first no-hitter in four decades, shutting out Swarthmore 3-0.

1958 Former Major-Leaguer Eric Tipton assumes the reins of Army’s baseball program. Tipton guides the Black Knights to three Eastern Intercollegiate Baseball League titles (1960, 1965, 1966) over the next 20 years, finishing with a 234-2015 (.538) coaching record. Although his career victory stan-

dard has since been surpassed at the Academy, Tipton’s teams notched double-digit victory totals 16 times.

1959 Fred Franks serves as captain of the Army baseball team and is later commissioned in the Armor branch of the U.S. Army. Twice wounded during his tour of duty in Vietnam, he later commanded the First Armored Division in Germany and was Commanding General of the VII Corps during Operation Desert Shield and Operation Desert Storm. Franks later retired from the U.S. Army with the rank of General.

1960 The Cadets capture their first outright conference championship, winning the Eastern Intercollegiate Baseball League title under head coach Eric Tipton. Army finishes 18-5-1 overall, tying the Academy’s single-season record for victories at the time.

1965 Army wins the first of two straight Eastern Intercollegiate Baseball League titles and the second of three conference crowns it would claim during the decade of the 1960s. Hardthrowing junior Barry DeBolt registers a 7-2 record with a sparkling 1.50 earned run average, leading the Black Knights to a 15-6 overall record and 7-2 league mark. DeBolt and Kenny Smith garner all-EIBL honors.

1966 Led by standout pitcher Barry DeBolt, Army claims its second consecutive Eastern Intercollegiate Baseball League title, posting an overall record of 16-4. DeBolt authors one of the most dominant pitching seasons in Army history, finishing 9-1 with a league-leading 1.33 earned run average. He becomes the first Cadet to earn allleague laurels during three straight seasons.

GREAT MOMENTS IN ARMY HISTORY

1984 Under the direction of manager Davey Johnson, the New York Mets make their final visit to Doubleday Field for an exhibition game against the Army baseball team. The Mets post a 6-0 win over the Cadets with a roster that includes veterans Rusty Staub, Jesse Orosco and Mookie Wilson, as well as young stars Dwight Gooden and Darryl Strawberry. The Mets, who made their first West Point appearance in 1963 with legendary manager Casey Stengel at the helm, visited Doubleday Field on eight occasions during the 22-year span, winning all eight affairs.

1986 The Houston Astros visit West Point on May 6 for what would mark the final exhibition game between Army and a Major League team at Doubleday Field. Houston wins by the score of 9-0 as the Astros score all of their runs in the third and fourth innings. Glenn Davis delivers a three-run home run and Phil Garner adds a solo shot for Houston to spark a four-run fourth. Tom Cascino and Erik Everton bang out two hits each for Army.

1989 The Black Knights record the 1,000th victory in the history of Army’s intercollegiate baseball program, defeating Long Island University by a 9-7 count on April 18.

1992 Junior left-hander Steve Reich leads Army to a season-opening 5-2 win over Air Force, striking out 17 Falcons in the seven-inning contest played at the U.S. Olympic Training site in Millington, Tenn. Reich would graduate a year later, having authored unparalleled career

success against his fellow service academies. Six appearances against Air Force and Navy resulted in six complete-game victories and a remarkable 1.71 earned run average. Reich was simply dominant against arch-rival Navy, winning all four of his starts, while posting a microscopic 0.96 ERA. Reich became the first Army player to earn a spot on Team USA following graduation and spent his first summer as a second lieutenant toiling internationally.

the Mids’ home field en route to the conference championship. The “Cardiac Cadets” register 18 come-from-behind wins throughout the season, piling up 12 victories in their final atbat. Despite losing twice in their initial NCAA Regional appearance, the Black Knights put forth a respectable effort, losing to host and No. 1 seed Rutgers 4-3 and eventual regional champion Penn State 3-1. The “interim” label is removed from Sottolano’s coaching title at season’s end.

1993

2004

Army’s baseball team begins a new era, ending a 44-year relationship with the Eastern Intercollegiate Baseball League by gaining membership in the Patriot League.

One of the Army baseball family’s most decorated members drops by his old dugout at Doubleday Field on April 13. Maj. Gen. Ray Odierno, commander of the infantry division that was responsible for capturing Saddam Hussein in Iraq five months earlier and a former Black Knight pitcher, pays a visit to the Army squad. A three-time letterwinner during his days in the Black, Gold and Gray, Maj. Gen. Odierno addresses the Army team for nearly 30 minutes in the squad’s clubhouse in Johnson Stadium.

1994 The Black Knights defeat Fordham 9-2 in a one-game playoff to determine the Patriot League’s North Division title. It marks Army’s first conference crown of any kind since 1966.

1995 Army heads to Tampa, Fla., for its spring trip as invited guests of the New York Yankees, beginning a practice that c o n t i n u e s to day.

1976 The New York Yankees visit West Point for the final time, defeating Army 2-0. Covering a 50-year span stretching from 1927 through 1976, 21 exhibition games were played between the Cadets and Yankees. The Bronx Bombers prevailed in each of those contests.

2004 Bob Neyland is selected as a member of the charter class of the newly formed Army Sports Hall of Fame.

GREAT MOMENTS IN ARMY HISTORY 2005 Less than 24 hours after suffering a heartbreaking 3-2 loss to No. 1 seed and eventual regional champion Florida State, Army defeats South Alabama 8-5 at the Tallahassee Regional, heralding the first NCAA Regional win in school history. Army surpasses the school record victory total it set the previous year, closing the most successful season in West Point history at 39-14. Army establishes or ties 85 team and individual, school and Patriot League records, many of which had been previously set just one year earlier. Sophomore left-hander Nick Hill becomes the first player in Army history to garner All-America honors in consecutive seasons, finishing 10-2 with a 1.21 earned run average. The latter figure ranks second nationally.

2006 Army posts 30 victories for the third straight season, marking a new standard for the Academy’s baseball team. Nick Hill becomes the first Black Knight since Steve Reich in 1993 to play for Team USA during the summer. Additionally, Doubleday Field receives a major upgrade as a completely new natural grass playing surface is installed, replacing the original diamond that had been in place for nearly a century.

2007 Seniors Nick Hill and Milan Dinga are selected in the seventh and 10th round, respectively, in Major League Baseball’s First-Year Player Draft. Hill, chosen by the Seattle Mariners, and Dinga, tabbed by the Los Angeles Angels, graduate in May having combined to establish or equal 78 school and Patriot League records on single game, season and career levels.

2008 Forecast for a third-place finish in the Patriot League’s preseason poll, Army storms to the top of the conference standings. The Black Knights capture their fourth regular season Patriot League championship with a roster featuring 15 freshmen. Drew Clothier, Cole White and Chris Simmons are selected in Major League Baseball’s First-Year Player Draft.

2009 Army garners a share of its fourth regular season Patriot League championship in six years, completing a meteoric rise through the conference standings by winning three of four games against Lafayette on the final weekend of regular season conference play.

But Army rallies to capture 12 of its final 14 Patriot League tilts to zoom to the top of the final conference listings. After defeating Holy Cross in the conference semifinals, Army sweeps Lafayette in the Patriot League Championship Series to earn the fourth NCAA Regional berth in school history.

2009 Posting wins over second-seeded Texas State and No. 3 seed Boston College, Army reaches the Austin Regional Final, marking a first in school history. The Black Knights carry a 10-6 lead into the bottom of the ninth inning against No. 1 national seed Texas only to see the powerful Longhorns rally for a 14-10 victory, ending Army’s Cinderella run in the first Austin Regional “championship” game. The Black Knights finish 36-21 overall and set or tie 67 team and individual, school and Patriot League records along the way.

2010 After making an appearance with Triple-A Tacoma in the Pacific Coast League playoffs and earning a stint in the Arizona Fall League, former Army standout Nick Hill is invited to Major League spring training camp by the Seattle Mariners. Army’s career strikeouts leader and a two-time All-America selection during his playing days at the Academy, Hill becomes the first Army player to be invited to a big league camp.

2010 The Army baseball program records its 1,500th win by defeating Marist, 4-3, at the WPDH Hudson Valley Baseball Classic. The Black Knights went on to win their third straight Patriot League regular-season title. It marked Army’s fifth Patriot League regular season title in the last seven years. Army also reached the 25-win plateau for the seventh straight season, extending the Black Knights’ record. Four Army players were named to the All-Patriot League first team, led by Pitcher of the Year Matt Fouch and Kevin McKague, who were unanimous selections. Army also continued its dominance of Navy, capturing the seventh straight “Star” by taking three out of four games from the Midshipmen.

2011 Army falls just short of capturing its sixth Patriot League title, losing the Patriot League Championship Series in three games. Clint Moore graduates at Army’s all-time leader in home runs, doubles, RBI, runs scored, total bases, slugging percentage and multiple-RBI games. He hit for the home run cycle in Army’s doubleheader at Lafayette in late April, helping him earn a spot in Sports Illustrated’s “Faces in the Crowd” section. Head coach Joe Sottolano, already the winningest head coach in Army baseball history, won his 300th career game when the Black Knights defeated Davidson, 10-6, early in the season. Army captured its eighth straight “Star” from Navy after splitting the regular-season series with the Midshipmen at West Point.

ARMY IN THE PROS Army’s baseball program has proven to be one of the most regular producers of minor league talent in all of the Northeast the past few years. In fact, nine former Black Knights have logged time with a minor league team affiliated with the major leagues since 2005. Eight of those individuals have been selected in Major League Baseball’s First-Year Player Draft, including a school-record total of three chosen in 2008. Below is a list of Army players selected in the draft since 2005. In addition to those listed, Josh Holden signed with the Cincinnati Reds organization as a free agent in 2006.
