COACHES’ PERSPECTIVE “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, INTERIM 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
MATT REID “There is no question that West Point is a special place. The Academy holds a unique spot in our Nation’s history as the finest military academy and stands at the forefront of academic achievement, leadership development and athletic success. These qualities have been forged over time by countless individuals, from alumni to administration, who recognized the power of teamwork and have worked tirelessly to uphold this institution’s core foundations of duty, honor, and country. I am privileged to be a part of such an inspirational community, including our baseball family, that values these ideals and I am grateful to have the opportunity to coach many of the future leaders of America.” — ERIC FOLMAR, ASSISTANT COACH

FACILITIES
Some of the finest athletic facilities in the nation greet an Army baseball player upon his arrival at West Point. In addition to Johnson Stadium at Doubleday Field – one of the country’s most historic baseball facilities – Army players train regularly in Kimsey Athletic Center, Foley Athletic Center and the Black Knights’ Indoor Pitching and Hitting Facility. When not training, Army players can relax in the sparkling Team Room that was completed in 2006 and dedicated as the Steven Reich Team Room last year.

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 “It’s pretty neat to sit down with some of these young guys and hear what they’re going to be doing. It takes a special person to be able to go through what they do to serve our country.” — ANDY PETTITTE, New York Yankees
“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’ 1410 win over Army at the 2009 Austin Regional Final “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
“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
“It’s a tremendous honor for our organization to play at West Point, which is one of our country’s most historically significant institutions.” — HAL STEINBRENNER, New York Yankees
“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. 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

SNAPSHOTS FROM FLORIDA SPRING TRIP
For the 18th 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 four-field 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, Pennsylvania, Yale and Miami (Ohio) during their spring trip. This season’s spring slate includes games against Massachusetts, Central Connecticut State, North Dakota State and Harvard.

DISTINGUISHED GRADUATES
BORMAN
GRANT
ROBERT E. LEE ’29 The Academy’s ninth Superintendent (1852-55), Lee was a model cadet during his four years at West Point. He graduated second in his class and never earned a single demerit during his four years at the Academy. At the beginning of the Civil War, he was selected to serve as Commanding General of the Army, but instead resigned his commission and was named General-In-Chief of the Confederate Army from 1861 to 1865. Lee’s surrender to Ulysses S. Grant (USMA 1843), at Appomattox Court House, Va., ended the Civil War. Fort Lee, Va., was named in his honor. ULYSSES S. GRANT ’43 Grant distinguished himself during the Civil War at the Battle of Vicksburg in 1863; his victory secured control of the Mississippi River for the Union. President Abe Lincoln later appointed him Commanding General of the Army in March 1864. On April 9, 1865, at Appomattox Court House, Va., Robert E. Lee (USMA 1829) surrendered the Army of Northern Virginia to him, ending the Civil War. Grant later served as the 18th President of the United States from 1869 to 1877. Today, his image graces the $50 bill. GEORGE W. GOETHALS ’80 Goethals became an architect and was builder of the Panama Canal, 1904 TO 1914. JOHN J. PERSHING ’86 Considered the second most senior officer in Army history, behind only George Washington, Pershing served as commander of the American Expeditionary Force during World War I. The two-million-plus troops of the AEF made a decisive contribution to the defeat of Imperial Germany. Pershing’s abilities as a leader distinguished him among European commanders, and through repeated successes on the battlefield, promoted American prestige around the world. He served as Army Chief of Staff in 1921, and was named General of the Armies of the United States upon his retirement in 1924.
HAIG
DOUGLAS MacARTHUR ’03 After World War I, MacArthur returned to West Point to serve as the Academy’s 31st Superintendent from 1919 to 1922. During that time, he was responsible for the revitalization of the Academy. He was later promoted to General of the Army and served as Supreme Allied Commander in the Pacific Theater during World War II. During that time, he received the Medal of Honor for leading defense preparation and operations on the Philippine Islands. He later served as Supreme Allied Commander, Japan, and as commander, United Nations Command in the Far East. He was one of only five officers to be promoted to General of the Army (five stars). GEORGE S. PATTON JR. ’09 “Old Blood and Guts,” Patton was one of the most colorful commanders in the Army. During World War II the famed commander of the 2nd Armored Division and later the Third Army displayed courage and daring as prominently as the pair of ivory handled revolvers he wore. Patton accomplished one of the most remarkable feats in military history in December 1944, when he quickly turned the Third Army northward to reinforce the Allied southern flank against the German attack in the Battle of the Bulge. The General’s doctrine of aggressive employment of massive armor forces continue to prove themselves in combat arenas around the world. OMAR N. BRADLEY ’15 During his career, Bradley earned a reputation as one of the best infantry commanders in World War II. He commanded the 82nd Airborne and 28th Infantry Divisions before going on to command the 1st Army and the 12th Army Group. After the war he served as Army Chief of Staff from 1948 to 1949 and served as the first Chairman of the Joint Chiefs of Staff from 1949 to 1953. He was the last Army officer to be promoted to General of the Army (five stars), and the Bradley fighting vehicle is named in his honor.
KIMBROUGH
KIMSEY
DWIGHT D. EISENHOWER ’15 During World War II, Eisenhower served as Supreme Commander of Allied Forces Europe from 1943 to 1944, during which he led the D-Day invasion of Europe. During that time, he was promoted to General of the Army (five stars). After the war, he served as Army Chief of Staff from 1945 to 1948 and was named President of Columbia University in 1948. He served as the 34th President of the United States from 1953 to 1961 and was one of only five officers to be promoted to General of the Army (five stars). ALEXANDER M. HAIG JR. ’47 Haig served as Chief of Staff to President Richard Nixon from 1973 to 1974; Supreme Allied Commander in Europe 1974 to 1979; President of United Technologies Corporation 1980 to 1981 and Secretary of State during the Reagan administration from 1981 to 1982. FRANK BORMAN ’50 An astronaut from 1962 to 1970, Borman commanded the first circumlunar flight of the earth. He later served as President of Eastern Airlines. FIDEL V. RAMOS ’50 One of the Academy’s international cadets, Ramos served as a Philippine Army officer after graduation. He eventually became the country’s military Chief of Staff and later Secretary of National Defense. He also served as President of the Republic of the Philippines from 1992 to 1998. EDWIN E. ALDRIN ’51 An astronaut from 1963 to 1972, Aldrin participated in the first manned lunar landing with Michael Collins (USMA ’52) and was the second man to walk on the moon. EDWARD WHITE ’52 An astronaut from 1962 to 1967, White was the first man to walk in space and was one of the three astronauts killed in the Apollo I disaster in 1967.

KRYZYEWSKI
H. NORMAN SCHWARZKOPF ’56 As Commander-in-Chief, United States Central Command from 1988 to 1991, Schwarzkopf’s command ultimately responded to Iraq’s invasion of Kuwait with the largest U.S. deployment since the Vietnam War, including portions of the Navy, Air Force, and Marine Corps as well as units from dozens of nations around the world. After retiring, Schwartzkopf received the Presidential Medal of Freedom. PETER M. DAWKINS ’59 Dawkins was Cadet Brigade Commander (First Captain of the U.S. Corps of Cadets) as a senior and became the third Heisman Trophy winner in Army football history.

WEST POINT
THE PREMIER LEADER DEVELOPMENT INSTITUTION IN THE NATION
PAGE 30 • @ARMY_BASEBALL
THE U.S. MILITARY ACADEMY The mission of the U.S. Military Academy is to educate, train, and inspire the Corps of Cadets so that each graduate is a commissioned leader of character committed to the values of Duty, Honor, Country; professional growth throughout a career as an officer in the U.S. Army; and a lifetime of selfless service to the Nation. Founded on March 16, 1802, the Academy celebrated its Bicentennial in 2002. But West Point’s role in America’s history dates to the Revolutionary War, when both sides realized the strategic importance of the commanding plateau on the west bank of the Hudson River. Gen. George Washington considered West Point to be the most strategic position in America. He personally selected Thaddeus Kosciuszko, one of the heroes of Saratoga, to design the fortifications in 1778 after problems arose with French engineers originally placed in charge of the design. In 1779, General Washington transferred his headquarters to West Point. Continental soldiers built forts, batteries and defensive barriers. A 100-ton iron chain was extended across the Hudson to control river traffic. Today, several links from that chain are arranged at Trophy Point as a reminder of West Point’s original fortifications. In 1802 President Thomas Jefferson signed the legislation establishing the U.S. Military Academy to create an institution devoted to the arts and sciences of warfare. This effectively eliminated America’s wartime reliance on foreign engineers and artillerists. West Point became the nation’s first engineering school and served as the model for engineering programs which were eventually established at other colleges. Col. Sylvanus Thayer, the “Father of the Military Academy,” served as Superintendent from 1817 through 1833. He upgraded academic standards, instilled military discipline and emphasized honorable conduct. Early graduates were largely responsible for the construction of the nation’s initial railway lines, bridges, harbors, and roads. Although the curriculum maintains its focus on engineering, in recent decades the program of instruction has markedly changed, providing cadets a selection of more than 40 majors. This tradition of academic and military excellence, guided by a demanding standard of moral and ethical conduct, remains the cornerstone of the West Point experience. It is said at West Point that “much of the history we teach was made by those people we taught.” The Academy has produced famous leaders throughout its illustrious past…Civil War Generals Grant, Sherman, Lee, and Jackson, to name but a few. In World War I, 34 of the 38 corps and division commanders were graduates. World War II would see many graduates reach brigadier general or higher, to include Eisenhower, MacArthur, Bradley and Patton. In more recent conflicts, MacArthur, Ridgway, Westmoreland, Abrams, Schwarzkopf and Abizaid were in command. Academy graduates have also excelled in air and space exploration, and countless others went on from military service to become leaders in medicine, law, business, religion and science. Since its founding, the Military Academy fulfills the same mission as it always has . . . to educate, train, and inspire the Corps of Cadets. It accomplishes this mission by developing cadets in three essential areas: intellectual, physical and military. These developmental paths are balanced and fully integrated into the daily life of each young man and woman at the Academy. Intellectual growth is fostered through an academic curriculum that provides a broad liberal education in the arts and sciences. The electives program builds upon the foundation of the core, allowing cadets to develop even greater competence in selected areas. In

addition, the fields-of-study and majors nurture the development of creativity, critical thinking, and selfdirected learning, essential characteristics of 21st century officers. The fouryear academic experience leads to a bachelor of science degree and a commission as a second lieutenant in the Army. Physical development is achieved through a rigorous athletic and physical education program. Each cadet participates at the intercollegiate, club or intramural level each semester. This readies Cole White, Class of 2008 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.

COACHING STAFF MATT REID INTERIM HEAD COACH SIXTH SEASON RICHMOND, 2001
Matt Reid, who rates as one of the bright, young talents in the college baseball coaching ranks, is in his sixth 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 prior to the 2011 season. Reid was named interim head coach on Sept. 24, 2013. 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. Since Reid arrived, Army established a single season school record for fielding percentage in 2009 (.970) after narrowly missing the mark the previous year. The Black Knights then obliterated that record with a .975 fielding percentage in 2012 to rank 32nd nationally. Three of the Black Knights’ starting four infielders earned All-Patriot League honors three years in a row (2009-11), including Clint Moore, who garnered All-America
laurels in 2009. Moore and fellow infielders Zach Price and Harold Earls have been named Patriot League Rookie of the Year during Reid’s tenure at the Academy. In 2011, three Army infielders were named to the All-Patriot League first team with Steve May joining Moore and Price on the unit. Last year, Price was named to the AllPatriot League first team, while Earls collected the conference’s Rookie of the Year award. Earls was also tabbed a Freshman All-American following his standout rookie campaign that saw him finish with a .331 batting average. Price, who was named a CoSIDA Academic All-American (first team), became the first Army player to earn a Rawling Gold Glove after the second baseman recorded a sparkling .996 fielding percentage. 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 improved its slugging percentage by more than 150 points since Reid arrived at West Point. Reid has also played a large role in the great success Army has experienced in its
PAGE 32 • @ARMY_BASEBALL
overall recruiting the past five years. Before 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 Iowa 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. Reid is single and resides in Fort Montgomery.
COACHING STAFF ANTHONY DECICCO ASSISTANT COACH FIFTH SEASON EASTERN CONNECTICUT, 2001
Anthony DeCicco is entering his fifth season as the Black Knights’ pitching and catching coach after being added to the staff prior to the 2010 campaign. He also oversees the main recruiting efforts in the Midwest and Western regions. Four times, DeCicco has helped teams to rank in the top 31 nationally in earned run average and assisted in the development of eight players who were selected in the First Year Major League Baseball Players Draft and one who signed as a free agency. DeCicco has played a large role in Army’s success on conference and nationals levels. Over the past three years, Army has reached the Patriot League Championship series, winning back-to-back titles in 2012 and 2013. While at NCAA Regionals in those seasons, Army suffered a pair of losses to nationally ranked teams, dropping a 2-1 decision to sixth-ranked Virginia in 2013 on the heels of a 2-1 setback to #14 Oklahoma the year prior. DeCicco has overseen the development of several all-conference players at Army, including starting pitchers Chris Rowley and Alex Robinett. Rowley was a first team AllPatriot League selection, named Most Outstanding Player in the Patriot League Championship Series and signed a professional contract with the Toronto Blue Jays, while Robinett was a conference second team selection. Under DeCicco’s guidance, Logan Lee threw a no-hitter against Bucknell in 2012, just the second time in school history that feat has been accomplished. During the 2013 season, DeCicco helped the Black Knights record a 4.03 earned-run average while Rowley posted a9-4 mark with six complete games and 75 strikeouts in 97.2 innings of work. Gunnar Carroll recorded four saves and the Black Knights showed a 279 to 139 strikeout to walk ratio. As part of the 2012 season, DeCicco presided over an Army pitching staff that led the
Patriot League and ranked 31st nationally in earned run average (3.25) while established a program record 41 wins. The Black Knights also ranked 21st in the country in hits allowed per nine innings (8.03), 28th in walks allowed per nine innings (2.81) and 18th in WHIP (1.20). DeCicco helped Chris Rowley establish a number of Academy singleseason records, including wins (11), innings pitched (97.1) and consecutive scoreless innings (29). Rowley, who was tabbed Patriot League Pitcher of the Year and earned a spot on the all-league first team, collected three All-America certificates. DeCicco also helped Logan Lee earn a spot on the AllPatriot League second team. Catcher J.T. Watkins was drafted in the 10 th round of the First Year Major League Baseball Players Draft after establishing a three-year caught stealing percentage of 54%. In the 2011 campaign, 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. DeCicco’s pitching staff topped the Patriot League and ranked 30th nationally in ERA (4.34) in 2010. 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 allleague 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
PAGE 33 • @ARMY_BASEBALL
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 regular-season championships in 2003 and 2006. The program reached the America East Conference Finals in 2005. Under DeCicco’s tutelage, the Vermont pitching staff excelled, topping the America East in team earned run average in both 2003 and 2005, while ranking among national leaders both years. Twice in six seasons, Vermont collected Pitcher of the Year accolades. The Catamounts also ranked sixth nationally in ERA in 2003. Additionally, seven Vermont players were drafted or signed by Major League baseball organizations from 2003 to 2009. DeCicco was a part of 146 wins during his six seasons on staff, including a program record 32 in 2003. A 2001 graduate of ECSU and a native of Johnston, R.I., DeCicco received his bachelor’s degree in physical education. He earned a master’s degree from Vermont in education and leadership in 2005. During his playing days, DeCicco helped the Warriors to the 1998 Division III National Championship as a catcher and then joined the staff of American Baseball Coaches of America Hall of Fame selection Bill Holowaty following graduation. DeCicco and his wife, Elizabeth, have a son, Theodore (8) and a daughter, Peyton (5). The family resides in nearby Highland Falls, N.Y.
COACHING STAFF ERIC FOLMAR ASSISTANT COACH FIRST SEASON OLD DOMINION, 1999
Eric Folmar, who spent the previous eight seasons at Penn State, joined the Army baseball coaching staff in October, 2013. Folmar, a 1999 graduate of Old Dominion, will serve as an assistant coach on Reid’s staff and will have oversight of the outfielders while working with the offense. He will also have recruiting responsibilities. “Eric has been around the highest levels of baseball and is a tremendous addition to our staff,” said interim Army head coach Matt Reid. “His work ethic, energy, recruiting ability and knowledge of the game are among his best qualities.” Folmar coached at Penn State for eight seasons and in addition to serving as the program’s recruiting coordinator, handled third-base coaching duties, infielders and base running. While in Happy Valley, Folmar was part of 200 victories, including 32 in 2011 and 31 in 2007. Folmar recruited pitcher Drew O’Neil who established the school save record and was drafted in the fourth round of the Major League Baseball First Year Player Draft.

DIAMOND HISTORY Football is not the only sport at the United States Military 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, 123 years ago. Overall, Army teams have posted a 1,5961,312-41 record (.548), 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 AllAmerica 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 69 exhibition games against professional teams in 1914, hosting the New York Giants. The latest exhibition contest was March 30, 2013, a 10-5 New York Yankees
victory at West Point, N.Y. No fewer than 17 men have worn the title of Army baseball head coach since 1895, when a cadet, A b ra h a m L o t t , served as both Abner coach and captain. The first five Doubleday 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. 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 multimillion dollar project included the addition of new lighted hitting tunnels, sparkling bullpen areas and a host of dugout improvements. Prior to the 2012 season, the first-ever press box was assembled at Johnson Stadium. A new scoreboard and a padded wall were also installed during the offseason. Lights are the latest addition after being installed in the fall of 2013 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-87year-old 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 come-from-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 then-school-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 Joe 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 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 AllAmerica 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
DIAMOND HISTORY 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 topseeded 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 backto-back seasons in school history, Army made its third postseason appearance in six years. For the second straight spring, the Black Knights established a then-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 AllAmerica 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 FirstYear 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
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. 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 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, sweeping the Midshipmen in Annapolis to claim their ninth consecutive series “star” and running its nine-year record against their arch rivals to 31-9, the Black Knights’ most lopsided stretch in the long matchup’s history. Army finished 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 all-league 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. 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. Army returned to glory in 2012 as the Black Knights won a school-record 41 games, captured the Patriot League regularseason and tournament titles and advanced to the Charlottesville Regional. Army shattered its own Patriot League record by
PAGE 91 • @ARMY_BASEBALL
posting an 18-2 conference mark. The Black Knights swept the Patriot League’s major awards with Kevin McKague (player), Chris Rowley (pitcher), Harold Earls (rookie), Price (scholar-athlete) and Sottolano (coach) being recognized. Rowley went on to cop three All-America certificates after posting an Army single-season record 11 victories. McKague, who led the conference with a .379 batting average, was also named an All-American. Earls, meanwhile, collected freshman All-America laurels. J.T. Watkins and McKague were both picked in Major League Baseball’s First-Year Player Draft. Army also received votes in the final NCBWA national poll for the fourth time in nine years (2004, 2005, 2009, 2012). The 2013 season marked Army’s seventh Patriot League Tournament and sixth NCAA Regional appearance. The Black Knights posted a 29-23 record, marking the ninth time in 10 season the squad won at least 25 games. Army again battled at the national level, dropping a pair of games to host Virginia (2-1) and UNC Wilmington (9-5) at the NCAA Charlottesville Regional. Since entering the conference in 1993, Army has featured 68 first team All-Patriot League selections, garnering nine conference pitcher of the year, five player of the year and five rookie of the year citings. Army players have been named Patriot League Pitcher of the Year seven times in the last 12 years. Additionally, 15 different Black Knights have copped a total of 46 All-America honors (preseason, postseason, freshman, academic) the past 10 years and 10 Army players have been selected in Major League Baseball’s First-Year Player Draft during that same span. Throughout Army’s long history, Black Knight pitchers boast four 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. Logan Lee became the fourth Army hurler to pitch a no-hitter in 2012 when he beat Bucknell, 8-0.
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.” 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. 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 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 234-201-5 (.538) coaching record. Although his career victory standard has since been surpassed at the Academy, Tipton’s teams notched doubledigit 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 singleseason 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. Hard-throwing 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 Baseb a l l 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 all-league laurels during three straight seasons. 1976 The New York Yankees visit West Point for the 21st 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.
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 seveninning 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.
1993 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. 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 continues today. The Black Knights schedule daily workouts at the Yankees’ sprawling fourfield minor league complex, just across the road from George M. Steinbrenner Field. 1996 Doubleday Field undergoes a $4.2 million dollar renovation that includes construction of full locker rooms, fully equipped training rooms, clubhouse facilities and the addition of 880 fixed chair-back seats. Johnson Stadium at Doubleday Field is dedicated on Sept. 13 in honor of the family of Rupert H. Johnson (USMA ‘21), whose generosity helped enable the Doubleday Society to give the facility a grand new look. 1997 Army captures its first Patriot League title and first outright conference flag of any kind in more than 30 years. The Black Knights are denied their first trip to the NCAA Regionals when they fall to Harvard 2-1 in a best-of-three NCAA Play-In Series. 2000 Under the direction of interim head coach Joe Sottolano, third-seeded Army storms through the Patriot League Tournament, sweeping regular-season champion Navy on 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 at-bat. 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.

2004 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. 2004 Patriot League champion-Army enjoys the most successful season in school history, finishing with a school-record 37 wins (37-15). The Black Knights establish or tie 84 team and individual, school and conference records along the way. Army’s magical year ends with losses to top-seed and eventual regional champ LSU (9-0) and College of Charleston (2-1) at the Baton Rouge Regional. 2004 Bob Neyland is selected as a member of the charter class of the newly formed Army Sports Hall of Fame. Legendary head coach Eric Tipton is elected o n e ye a r l at e r ; Steve Reich joins in 2006; and Arnold Galiffa and Barry DeBolt follow in 2007. In all, the Army baseball program is represented in each of the first four classes (by five individuals) elected to the Army Sports Hall of Fame, joining only the sports of football and men’s basketball with such distinction. 2005 Army captures its second straight Patriot League championship by sweeping regularseason runnerup Lehigh 2-0 in the Patriot League Championship Series at Doubleday Field. Senior first baseman Walker Gorham becomes the first player in the 116-year history of Army’s baseball program to blast three home runs in a game, leading the Black Knights to a 10-1 rout and a second straight trip to the NCAA Regionals. Gorham is selected the tourney’s most valuable player for his home-run hitting heroics.
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 one of the most successful seasons 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 lefthander 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.
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. The Black Knights win just one of their first six Patriot tilts and stand mired in fifth place in the conference standings in early April. 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.
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 win their third straight Patriot League regular-season title. It marks Army’s fifth Patriot League regular-season title in the last seven years. Army also reaches the 25-win plateau for the seventh straight season, extending the Black Knights’ record. Four Army players are named to the All-Patriot League first team, led by Pitcher of the Year Matt Fouch and Kevin McKague, who are unanimous selections. Army also continues its dominance of Navy, capturing the seventh straight “Star” by taking three out of four games from the Midshipmen.
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.
2011 Army falls just short of capturing another conference 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 multipleRBI 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. Army captures its eighth straight “star” from Navy after splitting the regular-season series with the Midshipmen at West Point.
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.
2012 Army wins a school-record 41 games en route to capturing a sixth Patriot League tournament title. The Black Knights cruise to an eighth conference regular-season crown thanks to a Patriot League-record 18-2 mark versus conference foes. Logan Lee fires the program’s fourth no-hitter when he beat Bucknell, 8-0, on April 21. Chris Rowley earns three All-America certificates after winning a school-record 11 games. The Black Knights sweep Navy in Annapolis. Army collects all four Patriot League major awards. 2013 Army wins its seventh Patriot League Tournament Championship and earns its sixth NCAA Regional bid after sweeping Holy Cross in Worcester, Mass. The Black Knights dropped a 2-1 decision to host Virginia at the NCAA Charlottesville Regional and then fell to UNC Wilmington, 9-5. Army and the New York Yankees resumed their exhibition series with a contest at West Point, N.Y., on March 30, in front of a crowd of 6,127.
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.

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 several years. In fact, 12 former Black Knights have logged time with a minor league team affiliated with the major leagues since 2005. Ten 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 and Chris Rowley inked a free agent contract with the Toronto Blue Jays.
