ARMY SOFTBALL COMPLEX

Army’s 25th anniversary as a varsity sport coincided with its move into a new, state-of-the-art Softball Complex located at North Athletic Field, adjacent to Gillis Field House, in the spring of 2003. The complex, completed in the fall of 2002, was dedicated that spring, but the original date for the ceremony (March 9, 2003) had to be postponed because of snow and poor field conditions. With the Black Knights headed south to the Rebel Spring Games in Florida, the first game in the new facility was moved back to Wednesday, March 26, with the Fordham Rams playing in the inaugural game. Brig. Gen. Daniel Kaufman, then-Dean of the Academic Board and one of the motivating forces behind construction of the facility, threw out the first pitch to thenArmy Director of Athletics Rick Greenspan. Fordham’s 2-0 win ruined Army’s debut in its new facility, while inclement weather caused the nightcap to be cancelled. Just over a week later, the Black Knights notched their first wins in the new complex when they swept a doubleheader from Manhattan on Thursday, April 3. Army’s 2-1 first-game win was followed by a thrilling 6-5 victory that went 11 innings, which still ranks as the longest game at the complex. Considered one of the finest softball facilities on the East Coast, the complex was recognized by the National Fastpitch Coaches Association (NFCA) as one of four Regional Turface/ Field Maintenance Award winners in 2004. Army shared the honor with Texas A&M, Tennessee at Chattanooga and Southern Illinois with Stetson named the national winner. “The Army Softball Complex is a great facility we are privileged enough to call home,” noted 2010Patriot League Coach of the Michelle DePolo. The view alone of the Hudson River and surrounding hills makes it a remarkable location. “Inside, the entire playing surface, both infield and outfield, is flawless. The lights allow us to enjoy the field at anytime, particularly during the shortened New York days in the off-season. “There is room to expand and we are looking forward to completing the second phase of the project in the near future. The complex and its continuous additions are great examples of the commitment this institution shows toward athletics and the softball program.” The complex includes a 500-seat grandstand with a fully-equipped press box, dugouts, two batting cages and an electronic scoreboard. The field dimensions are 200 feet down the lines and 210 feet to center field. With renovations among the athletic playing fields around West Point

continuing to be of prime importance, the Softball Complex was upgraded in the fall of 2009 with new grass sod (blue grass) replacing the outfield surface, while the electronic scoreboard now sports a message board. Clark Companies, the same group that was awarded the project of constructing the complex, was also responsible for the sod project. The Softball Complex, celebrating its 10th season as the home field for the Black Knights, has made a large impact on the program. Army has reached the Patriot League Championship finals seven times during that span, while capturing thethe Tournament title and automatic NCAA bid in 2013. Army won the regular-season title in 2010 compiling a season-best 17 game home mark in breaking the former mark of 13 set in 2005. The Black Knights set a Complex mark for home win streak of 15 in 2012 along with a winning percentage of .789 (15-4). Army has compiled a 123-94 mark over the past 11 years.

FOLEY ATHLETIC CENTER The latest jewel in Army’s treasure trove of athletic facilities, Foley Athletic Center opened its doors five years ago, serving as the “winter home” of the Black Knights. The massive 77,000-square-foot structure not only provides Army’s football team with a state-of-the-art indoor practice facility, but also offers spring teams such as Army baseball and softball another option for preseason training sessions where the teams can train in a climate-controlled environment during the winter months and inclement weather days throughout the year. The facility contains a full 100-yard football playing field, along with full 10-yard end zones on both ends. Additionally, a five-yard buffer encircles the field. In all, the FieldTurf playing surface covers 130 yards in length. In addition, a 50-yardby-10-yard speed and agility room is housed in the sprawling training center. The project was made possible through the generosity of Mr. and Mrs. William Foley, who pledged a gift of $15 million towards the continuation of the “Margin of Excellence” facility upgrade project. The largest single donation in service academy history, the gift by the Foley family funded the design and construction of the facility that bears its name. The Foley Athletic Center represents Phase II of the “Margin of Excellence” facility upgrade which began in 2001.

The mission of the U.S. Military Academy is to educate, train, and inspire the Corps of Cadets so that each graduate is a commissioned leader of character committed to the values of Duty, Honor, Country; professional growth throughout a career as an officer in the U.S. Army; and a lifetime of selfless service to the Nation. Founded on March 16, 1802, the Academy celebrated its Bicentennial in 2002. But West Point’s role in America’s history dates to the Revolutionary War, when both sides realized the strategic importance of the commanding plateau on the west bank of the Hudson River. Gen. George Washington considered West Point to be the most strategic position in America. He personally selected Thaddeus Kosciuszko, one of the heroes of Saratoga, to design the fortifications in 1778 after problems arose with French engineers originally placed in charge of the design. In 1779, General Washington transferred his headquarters to West Point. Continental soldiers built forts, batteries and defensive barriers. A 100-ton iron chain was extended across the Hudson to control river traffic. Today, several links from that chain are arranged at Trophy Point as a reminder of West Point’s original fortifications. In 1802 President Thomas Jefferson signed the legislation establishing the U.S. Military Academy to create an institution devoted to the arts and sciences of warfare. This effectively eliminated America’s wartime reliance on foreign engineers and artillerists. West Point became the nation’s first engineering school and served as the model for engineering programs which were eventually established at other colleges. Col. Sylvanus Thayer, the “Father of the Military Academy,” served as Superintendent from 1817 through 1833. He upgraded academic standards, instilled military discipline and emphasized honorable conduct. Early graduates were largely responsible for the construction of the nation’s initial railway lines, bridges, harbors, and roads. Although the curriculum maintains its focus on engineering, in recent decades the program of instruction has markedly changed, providing cadets a selection of more than 40 majors. This tradition of academic and military excellence, guided by a demanding standard of moral and ethical conduct, remains the cornerstone of the West Point experience. It is said at West Point that “much of the history we teach was made by those people we taught.” The Academy has produced famous leaders throughout its illustrious past…Civil War Generals Grant, Sherman, Lee, and Jackson, to name but a few. In World War I, 34 of the 38 corps and division commanders were graduates. World War II would see many graduates reach brigadier general or higher, to include Eisenhower, MacArthur, Bradley and Patton. In more recent conflicts, MacArthur, Ridgway, Westmoreland, Abrams, Schwarzkopf and Abizaid were in command. Academy graduates have also excelled in air and space exploration, and countless others went on from military service to become leaders in medicine, law, business, religion and science. Since its founding, the Military Academy fulfills the same mission as it always has . . . to educate, train, and inspire the Corps of Cadets. It accomplishes this mission by developing cadets in three essential areas: intellectual, physical and military. These developmental paths are balanced and fully integrated into the daily life of each young man and woman at the Academy. Intellectual growth is fostered through an academic curriculum that provides a broad liberal education in the arts and sciences. The electives program builds upon the foundation of the core, allowing cadets to develop even greater competence in selected areas. In addition, the fields-of-study and majors nurture the development of creativity, critical thinking, and self-directed learning, essential characteristics of 21st century officers. The four-year academic experience leads to a bachelor of science degree and a commission as a second lieutenant in the Army. Physical development is achieved through a rigorous athletic and physical education program. Each cadet participates at the intercollegiate, club or intramural level each semester. This readies the cadet for the physical demands of military life and helps teach good judgment and self-discipline, even while under mental and physical stress. Military development begins with the cadet’s first day at West Point. Most military training takes place during the summer, with new cadets undergoing Cadet Basic Training, or Beast Barracks, their first

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

ULYSSESS. S. GRANT ULYSSES 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 GeneralIn-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-millionplus troops of the AEF made a decisive contribution to the defeat of Imperial Germany. Pershing’s abilities as a leader distinguished him among European commanders, and through repeated successes on the battlefield, promoted American prestige around the world. He served as Army Chief of Staff in 1921, and was named General of the Armies of the United States upon his retirement in 1924. Douglas MacArthur ’03 After World War I, MacArthur returned to West Point to serve as the Academy’s 31st Superintendent from 1919 to 1922. During that time, he was responsible for

James V. Kimsey ’62 Kimsey was the founding chairman of America Online, and was named chairman emeritus in 1996. He founded the Kimsey Foundation in 1996.

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.

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.

Omar N. Bradley ’15 During his career, Bradley earned a reputation as one of the best infantry commanders in World War II.

2015 Army softball ASSISTANT COACHES

Jessie Bryant, 1st Season

Nicole d’argento, 1st Season

(university of providence ‘13)

Army head softball coach Michelle DePolo announced the hiring of Jessie Bryant as an assistant on her staff in September. Bryant came to West Point from Lesley University where she served as an assistant

coach for the past year. “We are very excited to welcome Jessie to round out our coaching staff,” said Coach DePolo. “Jessie brings an unbridled enthusiasm for coaching and teaching, and her energy is contagious. “She’s an impressive young coach who has experience as a player and coach all over the diamond. She boasts a decorated career as student, athlete, and leader and will be a great fit as well look to bring our program to the next level.” While at Lesley, Bryant worked primarily with the outfielders along with serving as the hitting coach. She was instrumental helping Lesley capture its sixth straight New England Collegiate Conference (NECC) Championship and fourth straight automatic berth to the NCAA Regional Tournament in the spring. Lesley posted a league-best 17-1 league record batting .385, to include 36 extra base hits and just 42 strikeouts, and a .482 slugging percentage. At the NECC Championships, the Lynx outscored their opponents 21-4 posting a 3-0 mark. In addition to being on the staff at Lesley, Bryant was also the head girls’ varsity softball coach at nearby Holliston High School as well as coaching the U18 Metrowest Thunder Elite. In addition to holding down the coaching jobs, Bryant served as the Marketing Director/Manager at Sluggers Academy in Medfield, Mass., to include maintaining the website, along with creating and designing baseball and softball individual websites. Bryant broke into the coaching ranks in the fall of 2010 as the head coach for the Marlborough Thunder Softball program during a stellar collegiate career as a four-year letterwinner and three-year statrer at Providence College (2010-13). As the captain of the Friars her senior season, Bryant batted .344 with a .413 on-base percentage and .576 slugging percentage. Her performance earned her BIG EAST second team honors and a nomination for the BIG EAST Sports Excellence Award. A standout inside the classroom as well as on the diamond at Providence, Bryant was a three-time Big East Academic Team selection and a Dean’s List student who graduated in 2013 with a Bachelor of Science degree in Health Policy and Management. Bryant enjoyed an outstanding high school career at Marlborough High School in her home state of Massachusetts where she was a three-time all-league player in softball, soccer and basketball. She led the Panthers to consecutive league titles for a school first her final two years.

(BOSTON COLLEGE ‘13) The first to join head coach Michelle DePolo’s staff this summer was former Boston College pitching sensation Nicole D’Argento . It is the first collegiate coaching position for D’Argento, who helped the Eagles to their first 30win season since 2008 as a team captain this spring. “We are thrilled to welcome a Nicole to our staff this year,” said DePolo, “As a student-athlete she did it all. In addition to her pitching accolades, she played several positions in the infield and was a mainstay in the heart of Boston College’s lineup. “Additionally, her success in the classroom and her ability to stand out as a distinct leader among her peers all culminate into making her a great fit for our staff.” D’Argento helped Boston College post its most wins (12) in the Atlantic Coast Conference (ACC) her final year on the diamond. Defensively, the right-hander compiled career marks for wins (18), earned-run average (2.70), appearances (41), innings pitched (205), starts (35) and completions (14), along with holding opponents to a .246 batting average. Just as versatile offensively, D’Argento drove in 26 runs for the second highest total on the team while compiling a .250 batting average. A two-time All-ACC and National Fast-pitch Coaches Association’s (NFCA) Division I All-Region Mid-Atlantic selection, D’Argento left her mark in several categories in Boston College’s record book. She is the Eagles’ all-time leader in starts (81), is second in appearances (129), innings pitched (544.2) and batters faced (2,439), lists fourth in strikeouts (461) and eighth in complete games (33). Offensively, D’Argento closed out her collegiate career ranked second in walks (82), fifth in runs scored (95), sixth in on-base percentage (.308), seventh in total bases (234), eighth in slugging percentage (.462) and in at bats (507), ninth in RBI (91), 10th in hits (144) and 11th in batting average (.284). D’Argento earned first-team all-region and All-ACC honors her junior year when she led the conference with five saves and ranked among its leaders in 20 statistical categories. Redshirted her senior year due to an injury, D’Argento was an all-region third-team pick and an All-ACC second-team selection as a graduate senior this past spring. Just as proficient in the classroom, D’Argento earned the Athletic Director’s Award for Academic Achievement in 2012, 2013 and 2014, and was an Academic All-ACC honor roll pick in 2011, along with selection to the 2014 AllACC Academic Team. As a freshman, D’Argento led her team with 128 strikeouts, set career marks the following year for home runs (11) and RBI (28). As a junior, she recorded career marks for hits (53), batting average (.340), slugging percentage (.564) and RBI (31). A double major, D’Argento earned a bachelor’s degree in Human Development and Mathematics/Computer Science in May of 2013 and a master’s degree from the Woods School of Administrative Studies this past May. A native of Ashland, Mass., D’Argento starred on the diamond at Ashland H.S., where she holds the school’s all-time pitching record (62-0). She was named the Boston Globe’s Player of the Year as well as Massachusetts’ Softball Gatorade Player of the Year in 2008 and 2009. D’Argento also appeared in Sports Illustrated in the “Faces in the Crowd” in 2009.

2015 Army softball SEASON PREVIEW

Army will once again be a young team with just one senior and four juniors among a roster of 23 dominated by underclassmen. Every year under head coach Michelle DePolo, who enters her sixth season, the Black Knights earned a berth to the Patriot League Tournament, hosting it in 2010, then winning the tournament title and automatic bid to the NCAA Tournament in 2013. Amanda Nguyen, who set Army and Patriot League records for hits and stolen bases, graduated along with four-year starting shortstop April Ortenzo, but there is wealth of talent among the six returning starters who will provide leadership to the younger members of the squad. . The Black Knights infield will be a force at the plate with Kasey McCravey, Alee Rashenskas and Caroline Smith hitting .320 or higher last year. Third baseman McCravey, a two-time All-Patriot League selection, along with All-Northeast honors last year, led the way with a .388 average to include 10 doubles, seven home runs and a triple among 59 hits along with 44 runs batted in and scored 23 runs. Rashenskas is coming off a solid freshman year at second base that earned her regional honors. She batted .343 as a starter in 51 games with 57 hits, 29 runs scored and 26 runs batted in. Smith was a Patriot League selection as a pitcher, along with earning regional honors during a highly successful freshman year, had 29 plate appearances with 31 hits, to include seven extra base hits. She drew the most time in the circle compiling a 13-13 mark. DePolo had her first chance to see her recruits in action in the fall. She was pleased with their performance, showing that Army will continue to be sound defensively and has the potential to compete for the Patriot League title through hard work and development. “Fall is traditional in terms of trying out combinations and seeing the team as a unit,” explains DePolo. “It is a different playing field than high school or travel ball. It gave us an idea of what players will do during games and what we needed to work on during the offseason. “Defense needs to be a strength of ours again. We have a deeper lineup than in the past, but it will be hard to replace the experience of Amanda and April. We will have a different look offensively with a little less speed, but a lot more power.”

PITCHING There will be more depth with the additional of newcomers Aja Brechtel and Chelsea Zerman from Florida and Ohio, respectively. Brechtel was a two-time Northwest Florida Daily News All-Area Big School Pitcher of the Year and Zerman set school marks at Clyde Senior for strikeouts (521) and was third in wins (63) and doubles (36). The newcomers join sophomores Caroline Smith, Kristen West and Rachael Dehlinger. Smith, an All-Patriot League second team selection and third team Northeast Regional, posted a 13-13 mark appearing in 28 games with 25 starts hurling 150.1 innings. In league play, she had three shutouts among her six wins (6-4) posting a 1.89 ERA over 63 innings of work. “Our staff was very young and inexperienced last year, but showed tremendous improvement as the year went on,” notes DePolo. “We have three pitchers with a year under their belt and two newcomers who have the ability to add more depth and diversity to the staff. “Caroline is the most experienced drawing a lot of innings by a freshman on any level. We put a lot of responsibility on Caroline as a freshman, and she really handled everything very professionally. She is an even-keeled pitcher who can compartmentalize the game and is hard to shake. “Caroline bounces back well and has the same approach no matter what kind of game we are in or who we are facing, and that is a the sign of a good leader.” West registered a 2.91 ERA both overall and in league play. She compiled a 5-6 overall record pitching 93.2 innings in 26 appearances and posted a 3-3 mark in 43.1 innings in nine league games. I am very pleased and proud of the way Kristen came around at the end of last season after being plagued with injuries, midseason,” said DePolo. “She was hitting a great stride when she went out with the injury and had to recover both mentally and physically. “At the end of the season, she was put into a new and challenging role pitching five consecutive games with spectacular performances. I cannot express in words how proud I am of her

2015 Army softball SEASON PREVIEW

Kasey McCravey

One of the top returnees in the league, McCravey is among 12 players named to the preseason All-Patriot League Team. She also earned selection to the College Sports Madness 2015 Patriot Preseason All-Conference Team along with Rashenskas. Rashenskas, who earned a league high four rookie of the year weekly citations last spring, authored a .343 batting average to rank third on the team as a starter in all 51 games. She also ranked among the team’s leaders in hits (57), runs scored (29) and RBI (26). Rashenskas authored a .339 batting average in league play with 11 RBI and 10 runs scored and made just four errors in 82 chances. Gaff batted .343 in 14 appearances with 12 starts in Patriot League games and had the third highest average among five Black Knights who .339 or above. Overall, she drew duty in 45 games at first base with 41 starts hitting .216. Younger sister, Taylor, a freshman on the team, has impressed the coaching staff in the preseason and will look to contribute early on. DePolo has a vacancy at shortstop following the graduation of four-year starter April Ortenzo, and Rashenskas could contribute there as well. “We want Alee to stay consistent and build off of what she did last year and keep maturing into a role on the team. We are looking at her at shortstop and second base, but no matter what, she is solid anywhere on the field. Marah House, who was plagued by injuries her freshman year, is competing for playing time at second base. She drew limited duty last year in the infield and outfield, but is healthy and ready to challenge for playing time. “Marah can hold her own anywhere on the field, so it’s good to see her healthy and ready to go,” notes DePolo. Freshman Gladys Esparza-Gallegos is a hard-nosed player who could vie for the shortstop vacancy after seeing action in the fall. A strong infielder who hails from the softball mecca of California, she batted .484 her senior year leading Ernest Righetti

closing the season out like that.” Dehlinger battled injuries and illness last year, and though drawing limited appearances (six), DePolo feels she is strong and healthy and ready to contribute both in the circle and at the plate. “Rachael is in a difference place this year, and I am looking forward to seeing the positive impacts a year has had on her.” Assessing the newcomers, DePolo notes that “Aja has a variety of pitches and provides a different look from our other pitchers. She has competed at the highest level which will ease her into the game well.” Chelsea missed a lot of the fall season because of injury and illness, but DePolo feels she has been making large strides. “What is best about both,” notes DePolo, “is that they are very coachable and hungry to make contributions.” DePolo has confidence in all five of her pitchers because of their abilities and the defense behind them. “Our objective is to control each at bat and the overall offense. Accuracy, command and change of speed will be most important for our staff this year.” CATCHER Junior Alyssa Strobehn is the most experienced among the catchers having drawn the main bulk of duty behind the plate last year. She batted .235 as a starter in 18 Patriot League games and did not commit an error in 48 chances. Bernie Cardon, who alternated between catching and DP duties last year, is out of the mix after suffering a season-ending injury. A pair of newcomers will be looking to draw time in Xiomara Perez and Sam Hartman. Perez played two years at Mississippi Valley State University, helping guide her team to two SWAC titles. She is a solid allaround player who has a great arm behind the plate and is a tough batter to pitch to at the plate. Hartman was a PIAA all-state second team selection at Dallastown Area and rounded out her career as the Player of the Year. “We look forward to seeing how each develop in their roles on this team.” INFIELD Army returns starters Alex Gaff (first base), Alee Rashenskas (second base) and Kasey McCravey (third base). McCravey, a two-time Patriot League selection, was a first-team Northeast Regional selection last year where she was joined by Rashenskas, named to the third unit. McCravey, who shares the team captaincy with Gaff, led Army offensively last year. She hit for a .388 average batting cleanup in the lineup as the leader in RBI (44), total bases (92), slugging percentage (.605), doubles (10) and home runs (7). McCravey also ranked among the leaders in the Patriot League, listing first in sacrifice flies (5) and second in RBI, home runs, slugging percentage and stolen bass (19). “Kasey has proven over the past several years that she is the real deal and a true five-tool player,” says DePolo. “She’s a fun player to watch anywhere on the field, and comes to compete each day. Her demeanor permeates into the rest of the team.”

2015 Army softball SEASON PREVIEW

Alee Rashenskas

Outfielders Amanda Nguyen and Marina Northup are jined

High School to three straight league title. She also could see time at second or third base. Freshman Emily Gray impressed the staff with her hitting in the fall and is hoping to play a significant role in the spring challenging at third base. She is vying as well for the designated player spot along with classmates Taylor Gaff and Perez. “The great thing about our defense this year is that we have a lot of versatile athletes who have played middles, corners and outfield.” OUTFIELD Army returns two starters in junior SJ Aversa, who patrolled right field, and sophomore Tyler McKinney, who played left field last year but may be moved to center field with the graduation of Amanda Nguyen. “SJ is a great player who does whatever we ask her to do,” notes DePolo. “She has been put in many different positions on the field and in the lineup, and goes at it with everything she has. We continue to look forward to her contributions this year.” In the fall, McKinney was moved to center field because of her ability to track down balls along with a strong army. She goes very hard at any ball in the outfield and can cover a lot of ground. Left field has not yet been solidified with several players vying for the spot. Sophomore letterman Karena Gonzalez and newcomers Kristen McPeek and Hailey Megge are top contenders. Gonzalez served in a myriad of positions her freshman year drawing 10 starts in the outfield alternating between left and right field. McPeek was a three-time first team all-district selection at Cy-Fair Senior in Texas and Megge played outfield her first two years at Spruce Creek in Florida where she was named the Defensive Player of the Year. “Many of the outfield positions and occupants are interchangeable,” explains DePolo. “We are looking for the best combinations for the situation at hand. The team has been very

competitive all year and are posting great challenges for the coaching staff. SCHEDULE The Black Knights, who have earned a postseason berth to the Patriot League Tournament during DePolo’s first five years at the helm, open a challenging 54-game schedule competing in five southern tournaments with visits to South Carolina, North Carolina, Washington, D.C. and Tampa, Fla. The season gets underway the first weekend in February with the Black Knights heading to Mt. Pleasant, S.C., for the College of Charleston Invitational (Feb. 6-8). The next two weekends finds Army in North Carolina for the Charlotte Fast Pitch Classic and UNC Greensboro Blue/Gold Challenge, respectively. A trip to Washington, D.C. for the George Washington Classic is followed by the USF Under Armor Invitational in Clearwater, Fla., before Army heads home to open its Patriot League schedule hosting Colgate in a three-game series March 21-22. The Black Knights, home for 18 games, also host league rivals Holy Cross and Bucknell and are on the road against Lafayette, Boston University and Lehigh. The Terriers are the league’s preseason pick with the Mountain Hawks sharing second place with Bucknell. Last year the fourth-seeded Black Knights defeated top seeded Lehigh, 5-1, in nine innings in the opening round of the Patriot League Tournament but came up short in their next two games. Army is a young and hungry team that is well balanced with pitching, hitting, speed and defense and expects once again to be among the Patriot League leaders in 2015.

Complex Earns Award Army’s Softball Complex was recognized by the National Fastpitch Coaches Association (NFCA) as one of four 2004 Regional Turface Field/ Maintenance Award winners during its National Convention. The Black Knights shared that honor with Texas A&M, Tennessee at Chattanooga and Southern Illinois, while Stetson University was named the National winner. Army’s venue was dedicated seven years ago on March 9, 2003, coinciding with its 25th anniversary season. Located at North Athletic Field adjacent to Gillis Field House, the complex includes a 500-seat grandstand with a fully-equipped press box, dugouts, two batting cages and a state-of-the-art electronic scoreboard.

2015 Army softball ARMY AT THE NCAA REGIONALS

WWW.GOARMYSPORTS.COM // @ARMY_WSOFTBALL

2000. 2002, 2013 ncaa participants

Army softball laid down a solid foundation for building its own dynasty in the new millennium with a pair of NCAA Tournament appearances in the first three years. The Black Knights wrapped up the 2000 campaign with their first-ever invitation to the NCAA Championships after winning the Patriot League title and its automatic bid. Army drew one of the toughest regional assignments in the country, traveling to Seattle, Wash., to take on the No. 1 ranked Washington Huskies in the West Region. Sixth-seeded Army battled valiantly, but a three-run homer in the bottom of the third inning powered the Huskies to a 5-0 victory over the Black Knights in the program’s first NCAA game. Playing error-free ball, Army threatened in the top of the fifth inning when Chrissy O’Hara ripped a single down the right field line and advanced to second on a groundout. She was stranded at third after advancing on an illegal pitch. Army threw a scare at No. 5-seed Tennessee-Chattanooga in a losers’ bracket game that went into extra innings before suffering a 6-4 loss in nine innings. The Black Knights took a 1-0 lead in the bottom of the second, keyed by Jen Knowlden’s double off the left field wall. Knowlden advanced to third on a sacrifice bunt and raced home on an error for Army’s first run in an NCAA game. The Lady Mocs rallied with three runs in the top of the third to pull ahead 3-1. Army cut the deficit to one in the bottom of the fourth on Knowlden’s solo homer, then tied the game in the sixth on Bianca Brito’s RBI double. The Lady Mocs pulled ahead 4-3 in the top of the eighth, but the Black Knights tied it in the bottom of that frame on Nicki Robbins’ home run. UTC broke the game open with two runs in the top of the ninth and Army appeared poised to make a run in the home half, but a double play ended the game and season for the Black Knights. Knowlden, who was 3-for-3 with an RBI and two runs against UTC, was named to the West Region all-tournament team. Two years later, another Patriot League title catapulted the Black Knights once again into the NCAA Tournament. Army’s second trip to the Regionals took them to Norman, Okla., as the No. 6 seed in Region 5. Army fell to top-seeded Texas, 4-0, in the opening round at the Region 5 Tournament. The Black Knights rebounded in the losers’ bracket with a 2-0 upset over Utah for their first-ever NCAA win. Shauna Evans threw a three-hit shutout, with Nicki Robbins and Lisa Huntington singling and doubling home Army’s two runs. The Black Knights put together another stellar effort in their next game in the double-elimination tournament, but their rally fell short in going down in a 2-0 elimination loss to Arkansas Army made its third trip to the NCAA Tournament in 2013 after taking a pair of games from top-seeded Lehigh in the Patriot League Tournament Championship series to earn the automatic bid for the first time since 2002. The Black Knights had their ticket punched to the Austin Regional where they fell 5-0 to No. 4 Texas in the opening round. The Black Knights challenged in their second game after overcoming a 3-0 deficit with four runs in the bottom of the fourth inning to pull ahead of Houston 4-3, but the Cougars rallied in the fifth to retake the lead (7-4). Army hung tough and pushed across a run in the bottom half of that frame to draw to 7-5, then led off the sixth with three straight hits before having its rally nipped. Senior Alex Reynolds and freshman Kasey McCravey hit safely in both games with McCravey posting a .571 (4-for-7) batting average. (See pages 56-58) for box scores of all seven of Army’s NCAA games.

2015 Army softball 2013 NCAA TOURNAMENT

2013 NCAA Tournament Recap

No. 1 Army shocked preseason favorite and top-seeded Lehigh twice in the championship series of the Patriot League Tournament after working its way back through the losers’ bracket to shut out the Mountain Hawks, 4-0 and 5-0, to capture the softball championship and automatic bid to the NCAA Tournament. It was Army’s first NCAA bid since 2002 and third overall as the Black Knights earned a trip to the Austin Regional Tournament. Army drew host and No. 4 Texas in the opening round with freshman Kasey McCravey going 2-for-3 at the plate, and Morgan Lashley pitching all seven innings as Army suffered a 5-0 loss in the opening round at McCombs Field. In the second round of the double-elimination tournament, Army erased a 3-0 deficit after taking advantage of four hits, along with an error, to score four runs to pull ahead of Houston,4-3, in the bottom of the third inning. The Cougars rallied in the top of the fifth inning with four runs on five hits, but Army closed to 7-5 in the home half and led off the sixth with three straight hits. Bailey Watts was summoned and retired the side on back-to-back strikeouts and a flyout in getting out of the bases-loaded jam. Army challenged again in the seventh with April Ortenzo leading off with a single up the middle and moving around on a fielder’s choice and single, With runners in the corners, Watts got out on a strikeout and groundout to end Army’s season. NOTES: Army’s 10 hits and five runs against Texas are the most in an NCAA Regional game, breaking former marks set against Chattanooga in the West Region in 2000 ... Alex Reynolds’ two RBI and Kasey McCravey’s two runs scored in a game are also the most by a Black Knight at the Regionals ... McCravey had a pair of hits in both games (also an Army first) going 4-for-7 with two runs scored ... the most runs in a game are three (to include a home run) set by Jen Knowlden against Chattanooga in 2000.

2002 NCAA Tournament Recap Army’s second trip to the NCAA Regionals in three years resulted in the first-ever softball win in Black Knight history and just the second by a Patriot League school. It was also Army’s first NCAA women’s tournament win at the Division I level. Earning a trip to the Midwest and the Region 5 Tournament in Norman, Okla., the sixth-seeded Black Knights capped a 31-19-1 season with a 2-0 elimination-game defeat of No. 5 Utah before bowing out of the tourney with a 2-0 defeat at the hands of No. 4 Arkansas. The underdog Black Knights battled evenly with top-seed Texas before ultimately losing 4-0 in the opening contest. Army kept the No. 10-ranked Longhorns, led by pitcher Cat Osterman, off the scoreboard for three innings before errors proved detrimental. Army rebounded behind Shauna Evans’ three-hit shutout along with timely late-inning hits that produced a pair of runs to chase Utah, the Mountain West Conference champions. The Black Knights’ bats came alive in the sixth inning with three hits coming from the top of the order in producing a pair of runs behind Nicki Robbins’ run-scoring single and Lisa Huntington’s RBI double. The Black Knights (31-19-1) threw a scare at Arkansas before being eliminated. After being held to just two hits over the first six frames, Army led off the seventh with back-to-back singles by Robbins and Huntington. The Razorbacks nixed that threat to hold onto the 2-0 shutout victory. Army’s 31 season wins set a school record at the Division I level, breaking the former mark of 29 set in 2000. It is also the second-highest victory total in school history, trailing the mark of 33 set in 1988.

2015 Army softball 2000 NCAA TOURNAMENT 2000 NCAA Tournament Recap Army lived up to its billing as the preseason Patriot League favorite in its 12-10 defeat of Lehigh for the conference title and its first-ever NCAA bid. The Black Knights’ initial trip to the NCAA Regionals took them out West to Seattle, Wash., where they drew the nation’s top-ranked team in Washington. Seeded sixth in the West Region, the Black Knights turned in an impressive showing despite losing 5-0 to a Huskies squad that had beaten 13 Top-25 teams by larger margins. Playing error-free ball, Army threatened in the top of the fifth inning, but the runner was stranded at third. In the next round of the double-elimination tournament, Army battled No. 5 seed Tennessee-Chattanooga to nine innings before going down to a 6-4 defeat. The Black Knights jumped on the scoreboard first when Jen Knowlden, who doubled, scored on an error. The Lady Mocs rallied with three runs in the top of the third for a 3-1 lead, but Army cut the deficit to one in the home half of the fourth on Knowlden’s solo home run over the left centerfield fence, then tied the game in the sixth when Sarah Thornton scored on Bianca Brito’s sacrifice hit. After Chattanooga pulled ahead 4-3 in the top of the eighth, Army retied it in the home half on Nicki Robbins’ home run. UTC answered with a pair of runs in the top of the ninth, then turned a double play to nip Army’s rally. Knowlden, who boasted a 1.400 slugging percentage in going 3-for-5 in the tournament, including a 3-for-3 showing versus UTC, was among the 11 players named to the NCAA all-Regional field.

2015 Army softball

Armyâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s softball team falls in line with the rest of West Pointâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s varsity sports when it comes to visibility in the community. The Black Knights take great pride in reaching out to youth as well as serving as role models. Army is very active in the community, hosting local youth in the Hudson Valley and the surrounding area for several years with a clinic at the Army Softball Complex. Army was on hand for face painting at Black Knights Alley, a family fun zone prior to every Army home football game, while holding a clinic in celebration of Women Sports Day at West Point.
