ARMY HOCKEY ON NATIONAL TELEVISION For the seventh-straight season, the Army hockey team will ap-pear on national television. CBS College Sports Television will broad-cast the Army at Mercyhurst contest on Friday, Feb. 19 from the Mer-cyhurst Ice Center. The contest will begin at 8:05 p.m.

ARMY HOCKEY MULTI-MEDIA Once again, Army will offer an aggressive multi-media schedule. All home games will be broadcast live on www.goARMYsports.com through the ITT Knight Vision subscription package. For the second year, b2 Networks will also offer streaming video of all Atlantic Hock-ey Association games. In addition, the road games at Sacred Heart (Jan. 8-9), Holy Cross (Feb. 5-6) and Mercyhurst (Feb. 19-20) as well as the late-game away game against American International (Feb. 26) will have radio coverage.

ARMY SPORTS HALL OF FAME HAS A HOCKEY FEEL On Oct. 1, 2004, the Army Athletic Association opened the Kenna Hall of Army Sports and the Army Sports Hall of Fame, inducting its very fi rst class of 16 former Black Knight athletes and coaches who reached the pinnacle of their respective sport. Among that group of 16 were two representatives of Army’s storied hockey program. Legendary head coach Jack Riley and former defenseman Pete Dawkins were among those in the inaugural group. Dave Rost, Class of 1977, was inducted a year later and David Merhar was chosen in 2006. George Clark and John Boretti are the latest inductions, earn-ing the honor with the Class of 2008. Riley coached the Black Knights for 36 years, the longest coach-

ing tenure in NCAA hockey history, rack-ing up 542 wins at West Point and re-tiring as the

second winningest head coach in the NCAA. He was twice named “Coach of the Year” and guided the 1960 U.S. Olympic Team to the gold medal. Dawkins, better known for his exploits on the football fi eld where he won the Heisman Trophy in 1958, played defense for Riley’s Black Knights and retired as the school’s all-time scoring leader among defensemen with 96 points. Rost is the Black Knights’ all-time leading scorer. The Buffalo, N.Y., native scored more points (330) than any NCAA hockey player past or present and was an All-East selection his senior season at West Point. The fourth hockey legend, Merhar, ’69, was enshrined in 2006. Merhar authored an incredible season in 1968-69, scoring 57 goals and dishing out 50 assists in just 28 games. He still ranks among the Black Knights leaders in all scoring categories on season and career levels, despite graduating nearly 40 years ago. Clark holds the Academy record for career goals (153), is 10th in assists (117) and is the third all-time leading scorer with 266 points. He was a two-time All-American, the only Black Knights skater to earn the honor twice and has a seven-goal game (against Wesleyan on Feb. 5, 1975) among his many accolades. Boretti was a three-sport standout, competing in soccer and baseball in addition to hockey. A defenseman, he scored seven goals and 20 assists in 75 games.

The Class of 2009 has a hockey presence as well. Ralph Chesnauskas was a senior captain and defenseman who scored seven points with four goals and three assists for coach Riley. He also won three letters in baseball and was an All-American football player.

WELCOME AIR FORCE The annual Army and Air Force series will take place this season in West Point, N.Y. Army will be looking for similar fortunes to Air Force’s last trip in 2008. Air Force entered the weekend ranked #20 nationally but Army won both games 2- 1 in front of huge crowds and a national televi-sion audience on both nights. Air Force won a pair of games in Colorado Springs, Colo., last year. Army and Air Force will play Jan. 29 and 30 at Tate Rink.

HONORS FOR ‘Z’ Defenseman Zach McKelvie not only earned a commission as a Second Lieutenant during commencement exercises in May, he also took a lot of hardware with him. A hulking, 6-foot-2 defenseman who led the team in ice time a year ago, McKelvie capped his impressive career by winning the Army Athletic Association Award, one of the most prestigious honors a cadet-athlete can win. He received the AAA trophy shortly after winning the inaugural Mike Krzyzewski Teaching Character Through Sport Award. McKelvie was recognized for outstanding commitment to the development of noble character through athletic participation and leadership. Army’s fi rst two-time Atlantic Hockey Association fi rst-team All-Star, McKelvie also participated in the NCAA Frozen Four Skills Chal-lenge and won the fastest skater competition.

CHASING SCORING RECORDS Senior forward Owen Meyer is within reach of etching his name in the Atlantic Hockey Association scoring records. Meyer enters his fi nal season with 51 career goals, 11th all-time in the league. Pierre-Luc O’Brien set the record of 67 when he graduated from Sacred Heart in 2007.

WEST POINT CONNECTIONS Three hockey players are following in their father’s footsteps as West Point graduates. Sophomore Pat Ryan’s father, Jack, is a 1970 graduate of the Academy and his older brother, Will, is a member of the Class of 2009. Will, who was born at West Point, will serve as the team’s athletic intern in January. Junior Joey Ammon’s father, Craig, is a 1984 USMA graduate while Bill Day’s father, Tom, is a member of the Class of 1978.

YES, WE’RE BROTHERS The 2009-10 Army hockey team has two sets of brothers. Senior goalie Joe Spracklen and his younger brother, Chris, a forward, are joined this year by Jay Clark. Jay is a junior goalie while John is a freshman defenseman.

#1 Freshman goalie Ryan Leets is one of the players the coaching staff expects to excel on the ice and in the classroom. His back-ground points to future success as he was the valedictorian at Jef-ferson Senior High School in Michigan.

The Army Sports Hall of Fame has inducted six classes and there is a strong hockey pres-ence among the Academy’s top athletes. Coach Jack Riley and players David Rost, David Merhar, George Clark, John Boretti, Pete Dawkins and Ralph Chesnauskas all left their mark on one of the country’s oldest hockey pro-grams and earned induction. The Army Sports Hall of Fame is located in the Kimsey Athletic Center. Each inductee has a plaque highlighting their many accomplish-ments and each team has a separate area de-tailing the history of the sport at West Point. Riley is Army’s all-time winningest coach and compiled a 542-343-20 record during his remarkable 36-year career at the Black Knights’ hockey helm. He retired in 1986 as the second-winningest college hockey head coach in NCAA history and currently ranks ninth on the list. In addition, Riley led the 1960 U.S. Olympic Team to a gold medal at the Squaw Valley Games. Merhar led Army’s hockey team in scoring during each of his three seasons with the varsi-ty, but it was his explosive senior campaign that earned him national acclaim. Merhar erupted for an NCAA-record 57 goals and tallied 50 as-sists during the 1968-69 season, becoming the fi rst collegiate player ever to surpass 100 points in one year. No player in NCAA hockey history has scored more points than Rost, who compiled an as-tounding 330 points during his remarkable four-year career at Army. Rost was tabbed a fi rst-team All-East selec-tion in 1977, capping a sparkling senior season in which he set an Academy record with 108 points, while jointly setting the NCAA single-season scoring mark with Clarkson’s Dave Tay-lor. The Black Knights’ career assist leader with 226, Rost tallied 104 career goals to graduate in third place in that category. His 66 assists in 1974-75 remain an Academy record. Clark wasn’t far behind Rost and Merhar when it came to scoring. The Academy’s only two-time All-American, Clark is third all-time with 266 points. His 153 goals top the Academy goals scoring chart while his 113 assists are 10th all-time. He had a seven-goal game to his credit and once netted nine points in a game. Boretti was a three-sport star at the Acad-emy in baseball, soccer and hockey. He played 75 games as a defenseman with 27 points. Dawkins, a Heisman Trophy winner in 1958, was also a defenseman on the hockey team. Chesnauskas, the most recent inductee as part of the Class of 2009, was also a three-sport star. In addition to hockey, he also played football and basketball. On the ice, he served as team captain as a senior for Riley, despite having no hockey experience prior to his arrival at the U.S. Military Academy.

Holleder Center, the home of Tate Rink and Army Hockey, is located next to venerable Michie Stadium on the sprawling acreage of West Point. Holleder Center, a 131,000 square foot facil-ity, was completed on Oct. 1, 1985, and hous-es Tate Rink, Christl Arena, offi ces for the Army hockey staff, administrative offi ces, the Army Ticket Offi ce and an athletic training room. Tate Rink, with a capacity of 2,648 fans, has served as home ice for 24 years and continues to attract fans in record numbers while prov-ing a true “home ice” advantage for the Black Knights. Army christened Tate Rink with a 5-0 victory over Ryerson on Oct. 25, 1985 and has enjoyed success at home ever since, with a .500 or bet-ter record 19 times and a winning percentage greater of than .600. In excess of 30,000 people have turned out to Tate Rink in each of the past 19 seasons to support the Black Knights. In 1996-97, the Black Knights set a third consecutive attendance mark, attracting 42,929 fans. The all-time single-game attendance record for Tate Rink is 3,147, established in 1988-89 when Army edged Rensselaer, 4-3. New dasher boards, seamless glass and a new ice surface are among the recent upgrades made to Tate Rink. Other recent renovations in-clude: a Daktronics scoreboard, installation of 32 television-quality lights with 600- and 1,000-watt settings and installation of a Double-Ply, Low-E ceiling. Premium, rink-side seating and a hospitality area are the new additions to Tate Rink. Twenty-four seats will be added to the North end of the rink for the upcoming season. For the second consecutive year, fans will have the chance to visit the hospitality area. The hockey players benefi t from a spacious locker room right outside the ice surface. Includ-ed in the space is a locker room, changing room, team room, athletic training room and the team’s video suite. The team room and video suite are the latest additions. Donations by players, fami-lies and friends of Army Hockey helped complete the team room that includes large sofas, a big-screen television, surround sound, study carou-sels and wireless Internet.

THE PREMIER LEADER DEVELOPMENT INSTITUTION IN THE NATION

The United States Military Academy is renowned because of its historic and distin-guished 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 fa-

mous and infl uential 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, edu-

cators, 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, chal-

lenging and rewarding career as an Army offi cer 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 com-mitted to “Duty, Honor, Country” and selfl ess service to our nation.

The mission of the U.S. Military Academy is to educate, train, and in-spire 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 offi cer in the U.S. Army; and a lifetime of selfl ess service to the Nation. Founded on March 16, 1802, the Academy celebrated its Bicenten-nial in 2002. But West Point’s role in America’s history dates to the Revo-lutionary 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 fortifi cations in 1778 after problems arose with French engineers originally placed in charge of the design. In 1779, Gen-eral 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 traffi c. Today, several links from that chain are arranged at Trophy Point as a reminder of West Point’s original fortifi cations. In 1802 President Thomas Jefferson signed the legislation establish-ing the U.S. Military Academy to create an institution devoted to the arts and sciences of warfare. This effectively eliminated America’s wartime reli-ance on foreign engineers and artillerists. West Point became the nation’s fi rst 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 stan-dards, instilled military discipline and emphasized honorable conduct. Ear-ly 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 in-struction 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 corner-stone 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 gradu-ates reach brigadier general or higher, to include Eisenhower, MacArthur, Bradley and Patton. In more recent confl icts, MacArthur, Ridgway, Westmo-reland, 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 fulfi lls the same mission as it always has . . . to educate, train, and inspire the Corps of Cadets. It ac-complishes this mission by developing cadets in three essential areas: in-tellectual, 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 fi elds-of-study and majors nurture the development of creativity, critical thinking, and self-directed learning, essential characteristics of 21st century offi cers. 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 physi-cal 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 fi rst day at West Point.

Most military training takes place during the summer, with new cadets un-dergoing Cadet Basic Training, or Beast Barracks, their fi rst 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 help-ing to train the fi rst- and second-year cadets. The Cadet Leader Develop-ment 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 fi rst day. Integ-rity is refl ected 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. Prospec-tive 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 aca-demics, 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 fi rst graduating class numbered just two men; today’s classes gradu-ate more than 900 new offi cers an-nually, both men and women, who are prepared for leadership roles within the Army. With the ex-pansion of knowledge and the c h a n g -i n g needs of the United States A r m y and the n a t i o n , life at West Point has changed to keep pace. Ever mindful of its rich heritage, the U.S. Military Academy is developing lead-ers for tomorrow, and its focus re-mains the national needs of the 21st century.

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 se-lected to serve as Commanding Gen-eral of the Army, but instead resigned his commission and was named Gen-eral-In-Chief of the Confederate Army from 1861 to 1865. Lee’s surrender to Ulysses S. Grant (USMA 1843), at Ap-pomattox 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, end-ing 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 offi cer in Army history, behind only George Washington, Pershing served as commander of the American Expe-ditionary 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 battlefi eld, promoted American prestige around the world. He served as Army Chief of Staff in 1921, and was named Gen-eral of the Armies of the United States upon his retirement in 1924.

DOUGLAS MacARTHUR ’03 After World War I, MacArthur re-turned 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.

GEORGE S. PATTON JR. ’09 “Old Blood and Guts,” Patton was one of the most colorful command-ers 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 remark-able feats in military history in Decem-ber 1944, when he quickly turned the Third Army northward to reinforce the Allied southern fl ank against the Ger-man attack in the Battle of the Bulge. The General’s doctrine of aggressive employment of massive armor forces continue to prove themselves in com-bat 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 com-manded 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 fi rst Chairman of the Joint Chiefs of Staff from 1949 to 1953. He was the last Army offi cer to be promoted to General of the Army (fi ve stars), and the Bradley fi ghting ve-hicle is named in his honor.

DWIGHT D. EISENHOWER ’15 During World War II, Eisenhower served as Supreme Commander of Al-lied 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 (fi ve stars). After the war, he served as Army Chief of Staff from 1945 to 1948 and was named President of Columbia Uni-versity in 1948. He served as the 34th President of the United States from 1953 to 1961 and was one of only fi ve offi cers to be promoted to General of the Army (fi ve stars).

FRANK BORMAN ’50 An astronaut from 1962 to 1970, Bor-man commanded the fi rst circumlunar fl ight 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 offi cer after graduation. He even-tually became the country’s military Chief of Staff and later Secretary of National Defense. He also served as President of the Republic of the Philip-pines from 1992 to 1998.

EDWIN E. ALDRIN ’51 An astronaut from 1963 to 1972, Aldrin participated in the fi rst 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 fi rst man to walk in space and was one of the three astro-nauts killed in the Apollo I disaster in 1967.

H. NORMAN SCHWARZKOPF ’56 As Commander-in-Chief, United States Central Command from 1988 to 1991, Schwarzkopf’s command ul-timately responded to Iraq’s invasion of Kuwait with the largest U.S. deploy-ment 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 Com-mander (First Captain of the U.S. Corps of Cadets) as a senior and became the third Heisman Trophy winner in Army football history. He later served as chairman and CEO of Primerica.

JAMES V. KIMSEY ’62 Kimsey was the founding chairman of America Online, and was named chair-man emeritus in 1996. He founded the Kimsey Foundation in 1996.

MICHAEL W. KRZYZEWSKI ’69 Krzyzewski served as head basket-ball coach at West Point from 1974 to 1979 before assuming similar duties at Duke University. Krzyzewski has led the Blue Devils to three national championships and was inducted into the Basketball Hall of Fame in Octo-ber 2001. He coached the U.S. at the 2008 Olympics in Beijing.

RAYMOND T. ODIERNO ‘76 Odierno commanded the 4th Infantry Division during the fall of 2003 which, along with Special Forces units, cap-tured Saddam Hussein in December of that year. Odierno helped plan and coordinate the raid that netted Iraq’s fallen dictator.

ROBERT S. KIMBROUGH ’89 Kimbrough was named one of 11 new astronaut candidates by NASA in May 2004. Kimbrough ranks among Army Baseball’s career leaders in saves. A veteran of Desert Storm, he currently works for NASA in Houston as a fl ight simulation engineer and participated in a space shuttle mission last fall.

The Center For Enhanced Perfor-mance (CEP) ensures that every cadet now has the opportunity to develop ex-pertise in the key mental skills which underlie high-level performance in all situations. It offers three programs de-signed to maximize West Point cadet per-formance, as well as export these critical mental skills to the United States Army at large. The Performance Enhancement Pro-gram (PEP) uses state-of-the-art training methods and sophisticated audio/video technologies, while broadening the ap-plications to include cadets from every performance endeavor. This training, as comprehensive and detailed as any received by professional and Olympic athletes, enables cadets to develop con-fi dence under pressure, concentration amidst distractions, and composure dur-ing times of stress. Cadets participate in individual train-ing sessions, during free periods in their academic schedule, learning, and then applying the skills of imagery, attention control, stress and energy management, and goal setting. Biofeedback training allows cadets to learn crucial self-regula-tion techniques. Sophisticated audio and video simulations of game and practice situations are created to facilitate guided imagery and mental rehearsal of specifi c physical, academic, or military skills.

The Academic Excellence Program provides instruction in academic support skills designed to help cadets succeed in the classroom. Three classes are of-fered throughout the academic year: 1) the Student Success Course, a 20 lesson course combining the study skills of text-book marking, note taking, test prepa-ration and time management, with the mental skills such as attention control, confi dence building, stress and energy management; 2) Reading Effi ciency, a 10 lesson course designed to improve read-ing speed and comprehension through drill and utilization of modern computer technologies; and 3) Information Literacy and Critical Thinking, a 20-lesson course taught jointly with the USMA Library staff created to enhance problem-solving skills and critically read and evaluate research. The CEP Tutor Program organizes fi nal exam preparation sessions at the end of each semester, and cadet tutors for nearly every academic course are avail-able throughout the year. Most recently the CEP created the Military Enhancement Program (MEP), de-signed to apply the skills and techniques taught by the Performance Enhancement Program within a military context. MEP Training is now nested throughout the 47 months of the West Point experience. These programs are unique aids to the every member of the Corps of Cadets

who seeks to achieve their full potential in academics, a t h l e t i c s and military t r a i n i n g . The Cen-ter for En-hanced Per-formance is a powerful demonstra-tion of the Academy’s c o m m i t -ment to pro-vide the fi n-est training available to

the future leaders of the nation. The results the program has had on hockey players is undeniable. In the last two years, 21 player)s, despite the rigor-ous nature of the Academy, were named to the Atlantic Hockey Association Aca-demic team. Jay Clark was an Academic All-Star Team member for the highest grade point average among those at his position for the last two years and also earned Academic All-District honors.

Peterson’s Guide ranks West Point as one of the most competitive colleges in the nation and Forbes ranks West Point as American’s best college. There are approximately 12,000 applications each year for less than 1,200 cadet vacancies. Applicants compete for va-cancies and are evaluated in three areas: aca-demics, physical aptitude and demonstrated leadership ability. Cadet vacancies are allocated to each member of Congress and to the representatives to Congress from Washington, D.C., Guam, the Virgin Islands, Puerto Rico, American Samoa and the Mariana Is-lands. Many foreign governments are also invited to nomi-nate cadets under a Department of State program, so the stu-dent population at West Point is incred-ibly diverse. The following is an overview of the fi rst three steps to-ward gaining admit-tance to West Point. Further information regarding the ad-missions process and orientation vis-its is available by calling the Director of Admissions at (845) 938-4041. Should you wish to schedule an offi cial visit, contact the Army Hockey offi ce at (845) 938-3711.

DETERMINE IF YOU MEET ENTRANCE REQUIREMENTS

To meet West Point’s minimum entrance requirements, you must: be at least 17 but not yet 23 on the day you enter West Point; be a U.S. citizen at the time you enter (except for foreign cadets as noted above); not be married or pregnant, nor have a legal obligation to sup-port a child or other dependent. Additionally, you must meet academic, medical and physical qualifi cations. To be considered academically qualifi ed, you should have an above-average high school or college academic record and strong performance on the standardized American College Testing (ACT) Assessment Program Exam or the Col-lege Board Scholastic Aptitude Test (SAT). Ad-ditionally, you should take a strong college pre-paratory program in high school, including four years of English, four years of math (including trigonometry), two years of laboratory science, two years of a foreign language and one year of U.S. history.

To be medically qualifi ed, you must be in good physical and mental health and pass a medical exam administered by the Department of Defense.

“What makes West Point special is how tough the school is

actually helps you to grow as a person.”

– ERIC SEFCHIK, CLASS OF 2010

“What makes West Point so special is its ability to establish

an environment that provides each student with the tools

needed for success, but yet creates such a level of stress

and unique set of obstacles that molds each person aca-

demically, physically, and morally.”

– ALEX MCRAE, CLASS OF 2012

“What makes West Point so special is what it brings out in

people. I have never worked so hard in anything in my life.

From waking up early in the morning to go run so I can make

sure I am in peak beach condition for the summer, to go-

ing to class and doing homework all night so I don’t fail my

classes, to getting up to the rink and skating/lifting/work-

ing out, it is a very jam-packed day. Everyone here does it,

and even though some people complain, they get up every

day and do it.”

– WILL RYAN, CLASS OF 2009

“I use to think it was the unique experience between aca-

demics, military, and athletics but I have realized that the

special thing about West Point is the people you meet.”

– ZACH MCKELVIE, CLASS OF 2009

“There is an intense feeling of pride you get when you stand

on the blue line for the national anthem before a game in

front of a packed house. Knowing you’re representing an

institution with as much history and purpose as West Point.

Knowing that you have overcome signifi cant challenges to

succeed at the Academy and as a hockey player to even

make it to that game night, and knowing that your standing

next to 20 or so guys are truly your brothers. I’ve never felt

as good about wearing a logo on my chest, or wearing the

fl ag on the back of my helmet.”

“Having the opportunity to coach here at West Point is

both an honor and a privilege. On a daily basis, you have

an opportunity to interact with the most impressive young

people that this country has to offer. Knowing that in

some small way, you as a coach help develop these young

men to become the future leaders -- in not only the U.S.

Army but in this country -- makes coaching here at West

Point both a rewarding and humbling experience.”

– HEAD COACH BRIAN RILEY

“My wife (Molly) and I consider it an honor to serve here at

West Point. Working on a daily basis with these outstand-

ing young men has been one of the most rewarding experi-

ences of our lives.”

– ASSOCIATE HEAD COACH ROB HABERBUSCH. (HIS WIFE, MOLLY,

TEACHES IN THE DEPARTMENT OF PHYSICAL EDUCATION)

“When fi rst stepping foot on the academy grounds, I was

immediately impressed with the tremendous amount of

history behind every door. The sense of pride within West

Point is second to none, and I feel honored to become

a part of this storied tradition. Coach Riley and his staff

run a fi rst-class program with a family atmosphere and I

am grateful to assist in those efforts. This community has

been extremely welcoming and I feel privileged to have

the opportunity to coach the future leaders of this country

here at West Point.”

Since Kevin Anderson was intro-duced as Army’s Director of Athletics on Dec. 13, 2004, West Point’s inter-collegiate athletic program has enjoyed immense success both on and off the “fi elds of friendly strife.” Boasting more than two decades of leadership and experience, Anderson departed his post as executive associate athletic director at Oregon State Univer-sity to accept the challenge of re-invigo-rating Army’s proud athletic program.

The veteran administrator has played a large role in accomplishing that goal dur-ing his fi ve years along the banks of the Hudson. In that time, Army has sent 19 in-tercollegiate athletic teams to the NCAAs, captured its fi rst National Championship in more than 50 years, witnessed the revi-talization of its hockey and men’s basket-ball programs, and experienced unparal-leled success in several others, such as baseball, women’s volleyball, women’s tennis and women’s basketball. A year

ago, Army’s women’s soccer team became West Point’s ninth different intercollegiate program to advance to the NCAAs under Anderson’s watch, while the baseball team reached a regional fi nal for the fi rst time in school history. During the 2004-05 academic year, Anderson’s fi rst at West Point, Army’s athletic program won a National Championship in rifl e, sent a record seven teams to postsea-son appearances, defeated Navy in the year-long series for the fi rst time since 1978 and forged an overall winning percentage of .582. It marked Army’s fi nest overall performance in more than a decade. Seventeen of Army’s 25 intercollegiate teams carved records of .500 or better that year as the Black Knights put forth their highest year-long winning percentage since a .604 effort in 1993-94. In addition, Army reclaimed the Patriot League’s Presidents’ Cup—signifying the league’s all-sports champion—for the fi rst time since 1997. Army sent its rifl e, gymnastics, baseball, lacrosse, men’s tennis, women’s tennis and golf squads to postseason play, surpassing the previous standard of six teams in NCAA action. Six of Army’s eight spring teams won Patriot League titles that year. Army’s success opposite Navy snapped a 27-year drought in the all-sports rivalry, giving the Black Knights their fi rst series win over Navy since going 9-8-1 (.528) in 1977-78. The Black Knights used their 2004-05 success as a springboard to continued outstanding performances in 2005-06. Army’s fall and winter teams combined to forge back-to-back winning records for the fi rst time since 1993-94. Additionally, four Army teams earned NCAA Tournament appearances in 2005-06, highlighted by the women’s basketball team, which earned the Academy’s fi rst post-season berth at the Division I level. In 2006-07, Anderson presided over a resurgence of Army’s men’s basketball and hockey programs, as well as the continued success of the Black Knights’ women’s basketball squad, which set a single season school record for victories at the Division I level. All three programs fl ourished again the following year with hockey earning its fi rst Atlantic Hockey Association regular-season crown and the men’s basketball squad advancing in the Patriot League postseason for the second straight year, a fi rst since 1995 and 1996. Additionally, a young Black Knights’ baseball team captured its third regular season Patriot League championship in fi ve years and Army’s women’s tennis team earned its fourth consecutive conference championship and accompa-nying NCAA berth. Three Army teams traveled to the NCAAs last season, headlined by the women’s soccer and baseball squads. The Black Knights’ baseball team gained national at-tention by reaching the fi nals of the Austin Regional and nearly upsetting national top seed and NCAA runnerup Texas in a championship game. Off the fi eld, construction of the Foley Athletic Center, a spacious indoor practice facility for football, was completed in the winter of 2007. During Anderson’s time at West Point, Randall Hall, which houses offi ces, locker rooms and team rooms for men’s and women’s basketball, as well as luxury suites that overlook historic Michie Stadium, was also unveiled. Army’s fabled football home received additional state-of-the-art amenities last summer with the installation of a new FieldTurf playing surface and a sparkling 30-foot-by-50-foot scoreboard, complete with a 20-foot-by-50-foot high-defi nition video board.

In the last year alone, Anderson led the search that resulted in the hiring of Rich Ellerson as Army’s 36th head football coach. He was also instrumental in negotiating a broadcast extension with CBS Sports to televise the Army-Navy football game to 2018, a new national television deal for Army’s football program, separate contracts with three different cities to serve as host for future Army-Navy games, and a land-mark agreement with the New York Yankees that will result in Army’s football team playing six games over the next years at Yankee Stadium. As part of the deal, Army will battle Notre Dame next fall in the fi rst college football game to be played at the Yankees’ majestic new home. Prior to his busy 2008-09 academic year, Anderson brokered major broadcast agreements for Army’s football program with ESPN and WABC Radio (770-AM), as well as aligning the Black Knights’ athletics teams with Nike, as part of a signifi cant apparel deal, and Learfi eld Sports Properties. The Army “A” Club has continued to fl ourish under Anderson’s leadership, establishing school records for annual giving during each of his four years at the Academy. During his time at Oregon State, Anderson directed the athletic department’s ex-ternal operations, to include marketing and promotions, sports information, ticket operations and the Beaver Athletic Student Fund. He also oversaw Oregon State’s highly successful football, men’s basketball and baseball programs, leading the search and recruitment for head football coach Mike Riley. Anderson, who ranks as the fi rst African-American to hold the position of director of athletics at West Point, was a member of an OSU management staff that balanced the athletic department’s budget for the fi rst time in nearly 15 years. Anderson took residence in Corvallis, Ore., in December 2002 after serving as executive associate athletic director for external affairs at the University of California. He joined the California staff in November 1997 as assistant athletic director for annual programs and was promoted to associate athletic director for development, tickets and the Bears’ baseball team in March 1999. At California, Anderson oversaw all fundraising matters involving capital giving and capital projects, as well as ticketing operations. He also functioned as the primary major gift offi cer for the athletic department. Under his leadership, California raised more than $5 million annually, including a record number of funds in fi scal years 2001 and 2002. Anderson also headed efforts to raise money for a renovation of California’s Memorial Football Stadium. Before accepting his position with the Golden Bears, Anderson served as area executive director of the YMCA of the East Bay from 1995 to 1997. He was director of annual giving with Stanford University’s athletic department from 1993 to 1995. While at Stanford, Anderson worked with the Stanford University Provost, former Secretary of State Condoleezza Rice. Anderson served as director of development, marketing and communications of the San Francisco Education Fund (1990-93) and was Northern California develop-ment director for the United Negro Fund (1989-90). He was also a manager with the Xerox Corporation from 1980 through 1989. Anderson graduated from San Francisco State University in 1979 with a bach-elor’s degree in political science. He is also a 1981 graduate of the Xerox Corpora-tion’s New Manager School and the Xerox Marketing School in 1986. He completed the executive management program at the Sports Man-agement Institute in 1995. In addition to his duties at West Point, Anderson has served as chairman for the National Association of Collegiate Directors of Ath-letics (NACDA) Division I-A Athletic Directors McClen-don Minority Scholarship Steering Committee and is a member of the NCAA’s Bas-ketball Academic Enhance-ment Group. In September, he became chairman of the Division I Men’s Basketball Issues Committee. Most recently, Anderson was elected Third Vice President of NACDA in June. Kevin and his wife, Moira, have four children: daugh-ters, Olivia and Michaela; and sons, Kevin Jr. and Chauncey.

2009-10 MEDIA GUIDE


Brian Riley is just the third Army hockey coach in the past 59 years, and he is pretty familiar with the other two and what it takes to succeed at the United States Military Academy. Brian Riley was named the 16th coach in Army hockey history in 2004 when he suc-ceeded his older brother, Rob, who retired from coaching. Prior to Rob, Jack Riley, their father, stood behind the Black Knights bench for 36 seasons. Brian Riley has started his own legacy along the banks of the Hudson River, earning three Atlantic Hockey Association “Coach of the Year” awards in his fi rst fi ve seasons.

Last year, with a team of 12 freshmen, Riley guided the Black Knights to the Atlantic Hockey Association playoffs for the sixth straight season. In-cluded in the wins was a shocking upset of #2 Miami, 3-2 in the consolation game of the Ohio Hockey Classic. Two years ago, Riley led Army to its fi rst regular season championship and won 19 games for the second consecutive season. Army went 19-14-4 in 2007-08, winning the AHA regular season title and the top seed in the conference tournament. For the second straight year, Army advanced to at least the semifi nal rounds. Riley was named the league coach of the year for the fi rst time in 2005-06 when the team fi nished fi fth in conference play after overcoming an 0-7-1 start. In 2006-07, the Black Knights hosted a league playoff game at Tate Rink for the fi rst time and beat Bentley, 6-2. They followed that with a 3-1 win over Connecticut in the semifi nals before losing to Air Force in the fi nals. During the 2007-08 season, Army put together a league-best nine-game unbeaten streak (8-0-1) to clinch the regular season title. Army won the fi rst two games of the best-of-three series with Sacred Heart to advance to the semifi nals where a loss to Mercyhurst ended the season. A year ago, Army fi nished sixth in the conference standings and dropped a series at Mercyhurst, a team that played for the conference tournament championship. In his fi rst campaign behind the Black Knights’ bench, Riley engineered one of the biggest upsets in the NCAA when Army stunned Colgate, 3-2, in Hamilton, N.Y., for his fi rst career win. Riley led his team to 11 wins during that initial season, setting the Academy record for most victories by a rookie head coach. He broke the record established by his brother, Rob, in 1986-87. In addition, the younger Riley also piloted the Black Knights to their fi rst postseason win in more than a quarter century when Army defeated Ameri-can International College, 5-3, in the fi rst round of the Atlantic Hockey tour-nament. Riley’s father, Jack, started it all in 1951 when legendary football coach and athletic director at West Point, Earl “Red” Blaik, hired him to head the hockey program. What began as a one-year contract, turned into a 36-year Hall of Fame career that culminated in 542 wins. Riley’s brother, Rob, took the reins from his father in the fall of 1986 and racked up 306 victories of his own over 18 winters. When Rob offi cially stepped down in the summer of 2004, he passed the torch (and family tradition) on to his younger brother. Brian brings an extensive resume to his “dream job” at the Academy. No stranger to West Point or the “West Point Experience,” the younger Riley has spent 14 years as an assistant coach to his brother, eventually rising to the position of associate head coach. Brian played an integral role in recruiting many of the athletes that helped Army put together back-to-back 20-win seasons and even tutored former Colorado Avalanche forward Dan Hinote and Boston Bruins free agent signee Zach McKelvie during his career at the Academy. More recently, Riley helped the Black Knights string together fi ve straight postseason appearances as members of the Metro Atlantic Athletic Confer-ence and Atlantic Hockey. His expertise in working with the defense molded Army’s past squads into one of the most stingy blue line units in college hockey.

A 1983 graduate of Brown, Riley began his coaching career in 1984 with a three-year stint as an assistant coach at SUNY Plattsburgh. During that period, the Cardinals advanced to the NCAA Division III Tournament three times, reaching the championship game twice. In 1988, Riley moved to the Division I ranks at the University of Massa-chusetts-Lowell. There, he teamed with his cousin, Bill Riley, for one season, directing the River Hawks to the NCAA Tournament, giving him his fourth straight postseason appearance. The following winter, Riley joined his brother’s staff at West Point for the fi rst time where he spent the next seven seasons. In 1996, the West Point native left the comfort and familiarity of the Academy, where he grew up, for the great Midwest and a head coaching position at Shattuck St. Mary’s Prep School in Faribault, Minn. There, Riley carved out a stellar two-year coaching career in which his teams compiled an impressive 94-19-10 record. In his fi rst season, Riley directed the squad to a 40-9-7 record before improving to 54-10-3 in 1997-98. In 1999, Riley returned to West Point, where he served at his brother’s side until assuming the head coaching position in 2004. During his collegiate playing days, Riley co-captained Brown’s hockey squad his senior season, earning honorable mention All-Ivy League. He was presented the Class of ’36 Trophy for his outstanding contributions over his four-year career and the Patrick Jones Trophy for most team spirit. Prior to starring for Brown, Riley attended New Hampton Prep and led the hockey team to a No. 1 national ranking among prep schools. He was chosen as the school’s most outstanding athlete while captaining both the soccer and hockey teams. Riley completed course work on his master’s, earning a graduate degree in Education from Boston University, in May 2003. Riley is married to the former Marybeth Feldman of Highland Falls, N.Y. The couple resides at West Point with their three children: Jack, 17, Dan-ielle, 15, and Brendan, 13.

Rob Haberbusch, a native of nearby Montclair, N.J., begins his seventh season with Army and second as Associate Head Coach. Following four seasons as Brian Ri-ley’s top assistant, Haberbusch was pro-moted last June. A 1993 graduate of Fairfi eld Univer-sity, Haberbusch works primarily with the defense and goaltenders. He oversees defensive pairings, goalies and the power play unit and is heavily involved in recruit-

ing, video analysis and player development. During his tenure, Haberbusch has played an important role in Army’s stingy defense. A year ago, the Black Knights allowed around three goals per game and the previous two seasons, led the Atlantic Hockey Association in goals allowed. A tireless recruiter, Haberbusch has helped attract big-time talent to West Point, including All-American goalie Josh Kassel, record-setting forward Luke Flicek, Boston Bruins free agent signee Zach McKelvie, academic and hockey all-star Bryce Hollweg, two-time captain Chase Podsiad and current medical student Ian McDou-gall. Now in his seventh season, Haberbusch serves as Riley’s top assistant and oversees Army’s intricate video library. Haberbusch’s tenure at West Point began under Brian’s broth-er, Rob Riley. Haberbusch spent a year with the older Riley and was retained when Brian Riley was named head coach. Prior to his arrival at Army, Haberbusch spent six seasons as the top assistant at fellow NCAA Division I programs Iona and Find-lay. A head coach for the past 12 years at the USA Hockey Select Festivals, Haberbusch was also the head coach at Bridgewater-Raritan High School where he took his squad to the New Jersey Interscholastic Hockey League State Tournament in its fi rst year of varsity competition. Prior to that, he spent a year at Dwight Engle-wood High School. A four-year hockey letterwinner at Fairfi eld, Haberbusch earned his degree in Political Science. He later completed his master’s degree in Education at Findlay. Haberbusch resides in Washingtonville, N.Y., with his wife Molly, an instructor in the Academy’s Department of Physical Education. The couple has a daughter, Shelby.

2009-10 MEDIA GUIDE


With four of its top fi ve scorers returning, its top goaltender and 20 letterwinners, the Army hockey team begins its season at the Mutual of Omaha Icebreakers Tournament. The Black Knights kick off their 2009-10 season at Nebraska-Omaha in a tournament that also included St. Lawrence and the Uni-versity of Massachusetts-Lowell. A non-conference game at Merrimack Oct. 17 completes and an early-three game roadtrip before the Black Knights return to Tate Rink and a two-game series against Mercyhurst, Oct. 24-25. Head coach Brian Riley, now in his sixth season, welcomes a veteran group, with 20 players who earned a letter during last sea-son’s 11-19-6 showing. The goals remain the same for Riley and the Black Knights. Secure home-ice advan-tage for the Atlantic Hockey Association play-offs, win the conference tournament and play in the NCAA Tournament. “We go on the four pillars of Army Hockey,” said Riley. “Be a physical, hard-working team that is mentally tough, which is all really a way of life around here. We want to be a dis-ciplined team and a team that can come to-gether as a family. If we have those four things as our foundation and can build on that, we can work on being a good hockey team.” A roster with three seniors, six juniors, 11

sophomores and seven freshmen will work to capture Army’s second Atlantic Hockey As-sociation regular season title and be in posi-tion to host a quarterfi nal playoff series in March. Among the returnees, is the top line from last season that combined for 89 points. Senior captain Eric Sefchik will again cen-ter that group after posting a team-high 20 assists and nine goals. Fellow senior Owen Meyer led the team with 19 goals and 33 points a year ago and is at one wing with Cody Omilusik (13 goals, 14 assists) on the other. Junior Jay Clark enters the season as the No. 1 goaltender. He played in 24 games last season and posted a 2.98 goals against average and a .914 save percentage. A true student of the game and one of the most prepared goaltenders in the league, Clark’s signature performance last season was a 56-save effort in a 3-2 win against #2 Miami of Ohio. “One of the strengths of our team is the line of Meyer, Sefchik and Omilusik,” said Ri-ley. “It is as good as any line in the league. They are a threat to score every time they are out there. Another positive is Clark in net. He is another goalie in this league, and everyone seems to have one, who can go out and win a game by himself. We are very con-fi dent in Jay. We know he can come up big.”

Senior Joe Spracklen played in three games last year and will serve as the backup while freshman Ryan Leets will have a chance to learn from a pair of experienced keepers. Junior forwards Joey Ammon (5-7-12), Chris Spracklen (2-1-3) and Drew Pierson (0-2-2) will be counted on to carry an in-creased offensive and leadership role. A large sophomore class gained experi-ence a year ago and will be tabbed for in-creased production this year and give Riley plenty of line options. Mike Hull scored fi ve goals and dished out 12 assists while Bryant Skarda netted four goals and 10 assists. Danny Colvin dished out seven assists and scored four times while Kyle Maggard had fi ve goals and fi ve assists. Mark Dube fi nished with fi ve goals and three assists, Alex McRae netted a goal and assist and Jack Barnes scored his fi rst career goal. Junior Pat Copeland is the most experi-enced member of the defense and will be joined by sophomore Marcel Alvarez, one of only two players to compete in every game last year. Alvarez scored one goal and hand-ed out 15 assists during his freshman cam-paign. Sophomores Bret Larson and Bill Day round out the experienced defensemen. Pat Ryan is a sophomore in his fi rst year on the roster. “I’m a little concerned about our team defense,” said Riley. “That’s an area we have to improve on. You can’t win championships or get home ice in the playoffs if you have the seventh-best defense in the league. The power play is another area. We have to fi nd ways to score goals. We have to win the spe-cial teams battle and we have to improve our team defense.” The seven-member freshmen class should see plenty of ice time. In addition to Leets in goal, the class includes forwards Jon Bobb, Andy Starczewski and Mike San-tee and defensemen Cody Ikkala, John Clark and Cheyne Rocha.

2009-10 MEDIA GUIDE


Entering its seventh season, the Atlantic Hockey Association continues to grow and prosper under solid leadership and a strong nucleus of institu-tions, which embodies the diverse structure of the league. Atlantic Hockey is one of six NCAA Division I men’s ice hockey conferences which owns an au-tomatic bid to the NCAA Tournament for its league champion. Air Force has won the last three Atlantic Hockey Association Tournaments and pulled an upset in the NCAA Tournament a year ago. Last year, Air Force dispatched top-seeded Michigan, 2-0, and nearly pulled a second upset, dropping an overtime contest against Vermont, 3-2 in the second extra session. The Falcons advanced to the NCAA Tournament with a 2-0 win against Mercyhurst in the Atlantic Hockey Association Tournament fi nals. In 2007-08, Air Force beat Mercyhurst 5-4 in double overtime in the fi nals but fell to Miami (Ohio) 3-2 in overtime in the NCAAs. In 2006-07, Air Force beat Army 6-1 in the con-ference tournament championship game and then dropped a 4-3 contest to No. 1 ranked Minnesota. In 2005-06, Holy Cross made history as the fi rst Atlantic Hockey school to win a game at the NCAA Tournament, defeating top-seeded Minnesota, 4-3. The overtime decision sent shock waves through the college hockey community and of-fi cially announced Atlantic Hockey’s presence on the national stage. Although the Crusaders bowed to regional host North Dakota, 5-2, in the regional fi nal, the statement had already been made: Atlan-tic Hockey is here to stay. The conference, which added Air Force and Rochester Institute of Technology to its member-ship three seasons ago, is comprised of 10 schools but that number will grown next year. The Air Force Academy made the switch from College Hockey America and was reunited with ser-vice-academy rival Army. The two academies were members of CHA for the 1999-2000 season. RIT made the jump from Division III, where the Tigers made 13 NCAA Tournament appearances and won nine ECAC West titles. Next season, the AHA will expand to 12 teams with the addition of Robert Morris and Niagara. For the 2010-11 season, the teams in the AHA will be split into geographic scheduling pods. Teams in each of the “regions” will play three games against teams in their own “region”, while playing two crossover games against the other “regions” squads. Each team will play a total of 27 confer-ence games with the standings including all 12 members. Playoffs for the 2010-11 season will be determined prior to the start of that season. Robert Morris is a private school near Pittsburgh, Pa., with an enrollment of 5,000 and competes in College Hockey America. Niagara is a private liberal arts university the Niagara River overlooking the Canadian province of Ontario. The team presently competes in the CHA. Atlantic Hockey was formed when Fairfi eld Uni-versity and Iona College dropped their programs and the nine remaining schools in the Metro At-lantic Athletic Conference decided to break away from the multi-sport conference and form their own “hockey only” league. That left just one full-time MAAC institution (Ca-nisius). Although the MAAC Council of Presidents agreed to continue operating the league, its gov-

ernance structure presented numerous challenges to the membership, and the schools chose to with-draw and seek their own path. The nine remaining members voted on June 30, 2003 to sever ties with the conference and former Merrimack College athletic director, Robert M. De-Gregorio, Jr., was introduced as Atlantic Hockey’s fi rst commissioner. DeGregorio oversees all aspects of running the hockey conference from the league’s offi ces in Hav-erhill, Mass. Eight of the original nine charter members now form Atlantic Hockey including: American Interna-tional College, Army, Bentley College, Canisius Col-lege, University of Connecticut, College of the Holy Cross, Mercyhurst College and Sacred Heart Uni-versity. The fi rst offi cial league contest took place on October 11, 2003, with Holy Cross defeating Cani-sius 3-1 in Buffalo, N.Y. Atlantic Hockey retained the MAAC’s automatic bid to the NCAA Men’s Ice Hockey Tournament and Holy Cross captured the fi rst AHA postseason title in 2004. The inaugural AHA tournament was a suc-cess with the U.S. Military Academy serving as host for all eight games. The playoff format will remain the same this season. The fi rst round will be a single-elimination game, played on Saturday, March 6. The No. 7 seed will host the No. 10 seed while the No. 8 squad hosts No. 9. The winners will then be reseeded for the quarterfi nals, a best-of-three format that will take place the next weekend (March 12-14) with the top seed facing the lowest winning seed while the No. 2 seed will host the other fi rst round win-ner. In addition, No. 3 will host No. 6 and No. 4 will host No. 5. All quarterfi nal winners will be reseeded for the semifi nals on Friday, March 19, at the Blue Cross Arena in Rochester, N.Y. The fi nals will take place the next day at the Blue Cross Arena.

COMMISSIONERROBERT M. DEGREGORIO, JR.

Robert M. DeGregorio, Jr., was introduced as Atlantic Hockey’s fi rst commissioner on June 30, 2003. He oversees the 10 members of the league and all aspects of running the conference. DeGregorio is no stranger to guiding a major Division I ice hockey league. He served as com-missioner of Hockey East from 1993-96, when he replaced Stuart P. Haskell, who resigned to devote full-time energies to his position as Commissioner of the North Atlantic Conference. DeGregorio, the former Director of Athletics at Merrimack College for 19 years, joined the staff at Merrimack as business manager for the Athletic De-partment and for the College’s S. Peter Volpe Physi-cal Education Center in 1978. He was promoted to Director of Athletics in May of 1983. Throughout his tenure, many of the Warrior teams become national powers. The 15-sport Divi-sion II program reached its pinnacle in 1999-2000 when it captured the Northeast-10 President’s Cup, awarded for the top overall performance of all teams. DeGregorio was also Merrimack’s softball coach from 1982-1992, posting 211 victories in ten seasons and guided the Warriors to four Northeast-10 Conference titles. He was named Northeast-10

Conference Coach of the Year three times (1986, 1989, and 1992). The Warriors won the 1994 Divi-sion II National Softball Championship and the soft-ball program has a total of fi ve appearances in the national championship tournament. DeGregorio has sat on numerous committees and held many posts while at Merrimack, serving his institution nationally on various NCAA commit-tees. He was a member of the NCAA Division I Ice Hockey Committee from 1994-98. DeGregorio served as director on the Northeast-10 Conference (NE-10) Board of Directors, Chairman of the NE-10 Men’s Basketball Championship and the NE-10 Fi-nance Committees. He was a member of the NCAA Northeast Region Advisory Committees for both men’s basketball and baseball. DeGregorio also previously served as a director of the Eastern Football Conference and as the con-ference’s treasurer, member of the ECAC Finance Committee and chairman of the ECAC Investment Committee. A resident of Winthrop, Mass., where he resides with his wife Michele, DeGregorio graduated from Boston State College in 1973 with a bachelor’s de-gree in education. Bob has two children, Leah and Robert Michael III.

The mission of the Atlantic Hockey As-sociation is to provide its members with a positive NCAA Division I college hockey ex-perience fostering competitive excellence, championship play and recognition of teams and individual student-athletes and coaches. Atlantic Hockey is committed to academic excellence, a high level of competitiveness, sportsmanship and fair play within the context of athletic integrity.

The Army hockey team has established it-self as one of the nation’s oldest and most re-spected programs and will continue to build on that tradition in this, its 105th year of intercol-legiate hockey. Four seasons ago, the Black Knights be-came just the 13th school in NCAA history to reach 1,000 victories. That historic win came against service academy rival Air Force on Nov. 11, 2005. Last year, Army qualifi ed for the playoffs for a seventh straight year, coming on the heels of its fi rst outright regular season championship in 2007-08 in which the team won the Atlantic Hockey Association with a 17-8-3 conference mark. Army clinched the #6 seed in the playoffs in 2008-09 and dropped a quarterfi nal series to Mercyhurst. The year before, the Black Knights earned the top-seed in the conference tourna-ment and dispatched American International in a fi rst-round series before losing to Mercyhurst in the semifi nals. The 2006-07 squad advanced to the title game of the Atlantic Hockey Association Tourna-ment, its best fi nish since the conference went to a tournament format seven years prior. The Black Knights earned the No. 2 seed for the conference tournament with a 19-12-5 over-all mark and a 15-8-5 slate in league games. Army has the third oldest program in the country, along with Princeton, behind Yale (110) and Harvard (107). The Black Knights have won 1,060 games and boast a winning percentage of over .500. Army hockey has produced three players and one coach that have represented the United States in Olympic and other international compe-titions and also has an individual making a name for himself in the National Hockey League.

THE BEGINNING ON “THE PLAIN” From a frozen patch of raw ice on “The Plain” to venerable and perpetually frigid Smith Rink to the cozy confi nes of present day Tate Rink, Army has certainly carved its own niche in college hockey since the program’s inception in 1904. The fi rst chapter of Army hockey was writ-ten in the fi rst decade of the 20th century. Under the direction of coaches Capt. Edward King and Capt. Robert Foy, the program enjoyed immedi-ate success in its early days, winning 17 of its fi rst 19 games and outscoring its foes 85-20. Eight of the fi rst 17 wins came via shutout. King guided the Black Knights to a sturdy 5-1 record in that inaugural season of 1904, in-cluding a four-game winning streak to close out the year. Army posted seven or more goals in four of its six outings that season. Under Foy’s direction, with a 3-0 mark in 1905, Army’s win streak reached seven straight as the squad opened 3-0. A loss to St. Paul’s School brought that run to an end. However, Foy’s icemen followed that setback with four more victories.

Those early games were held during the winter on “The Plain” in an area fl ooded with water in late fall so a rink could form by mid-winter. Open-air rinks would serve as the team’s home until construction of Smith Rink was com-pleted in 1931. The fi rst-ever match up between Army and the Royal Military College of Canada, West Point’s counterpart north of the border, was held on the Academy’s open-air patch of ice in 1923. One year later, the Black Knights continued their blossoming series with RMC by taking a his-toric trip to Kingston, Ontario. That road trip was Army’s fi rst in its hockey history, spanning 138 games and 20-plus seasons. In addition to King and Foy, the hockey pro-gram’s early history is replete with the efforts of others, like Talbot Hunter, who helped General Douglas MacArthur coordinate plans in 1922 and 1923 for the Army-RMC series; Ray March-and, a Canadian native who helped the Black Knights fi nally beat RMC some 16 games into the series and was behind the Army bench for 20 seasons; and Dave Merhar who authored one of only two 100-point seasons in Academy history. Throughout its history, the West Point hockey program has built a strong reputation as a highly competitive opponent relying on hard-nosed, fundamental hockey. However, the suc-cesses of Army hockey has not been limited to the ice at West Point as many within the Army “family” have carried the Academy’s Black, Gold and Gray on to greater glory. Long-time head coach Jack Riley is perhaps the greatest example of such accomplishments. He guided the Black Knights to 542 victories dur-

ing a 36-year coaching career that spanned four decades. When he retired, his 542 career wins trailed only the legendary John MacInnes, who amassed 555 wins at Michigan Tech. Today, his wins total still sits in the all-time Top 10. In 1949, the Academy elevated hockey to major sport status, helping turn the program into one of the Academy’s most successful. But it was not until the arrival of the feisty Irishmen with the surname of Riley that Army’s ice for-tunes soared.

THE RILEY ERA IMPACT It is doubtful that any family can claim to have the impact on a single college athletics pro-gram that the Riley family has had at West Point for the last 59 years. From Jack Riley to his sons Rob and Brian, Army hockey has literally been defi ned by the family’s collaborative efforts for more than fi ve decades. Hired in 1951 by legendary football coach Earl “Red” Blaik, who was also Army’s athletic director, Jack Riley assumed command of the Army program and turned it into a powerhouse squad featuring rugged, physical defensemen and explosive forwards. Riley boasted a wealth of hockey experi-ence, having captained Dartmouth’s hockey team in 1947. Riley was a member of the United States Olympic Team that participated in the 1948 Games in St. Moritz, Switzerland. He served as player-coach of the 1949 U.S. national team that played in the World Cham-pionships in Stockholm, Sweden. Riley scored both goals as the U.S. dealt eventual champ Czechoslovakia a 2-0 loss, its lone defeat of the tournament.

While at Army, Riley garnered NCAA “Coach of the Year” honors in 1957 and 1960. Follow-ing his selection in 1960, he was tabbed as head coach of the United States Olympic Team for the 1960 Games at Squaw Valley, Calif. That team became the fi rst American squad ever to beat the mighty Russian dynasty en route to the United States’ fi rst-ever gold medal in hockey. Army goalie Larry Palmer was a reserve on that team and remains the only Army hockey player to participate in the Olympics. Palmer’s trip to Squaw Valley came after a splendid ca-reer in which he won 37 games and amassed 1,576 saves, both Academy records when he de-parted. Ed Crowley (USMA ’46) served as an alter-nate for the 1948 Olympic team, but did not dress for the games. The Black Knights have had other players compete internationally, most notably Paul DeGi-ronimo, who performed for the 1988 U.S. Olym-pic Team on its pre-Olympic tour. Throughout his tenure at West Point, Riley continuously carved successful teams from the players he could glean from the Corps of Cadets. Among the fi nest hockey defensemen ever to pass through Riley’s program was Pete Dawkins, who won college football’s Heisman Trophy in 1958, and was First Captain of the Corps of Ca-dets. Dawkins graduated with 95 career points, a record for defensemen that has since been broken. After struggling through two dismal seasons at the opening of his tenure, Riley reversed the Army hockey slide by forging an 8-8 record in 1952-53 and a 10-7 showing in 1953-54. In-cluding those initial two campaigns, Riley teams would post winning seasons in 29 of his 36 years behind the bench. The Academy bestowed upon Riley yet an-other prestigious honor, electing the legendary hockey mentor into the Hall of Army Sports as a member of its inaugural Class of 2004. “I never expected anything like this,” Riley said upon his induction into the Hall of Army Sports Hall of Fame. “It is the biggest thrill in all my years in sports.”

A FATHER AND TWO SONS As expected, there were many changes in the program’s structure during Riley’s tenure. Army bounced from Division I to Division II and back again during the 1970s. The Black Knights entered into conference play in the 1980s, and moved into a brand new home in the fall of 1985. A move to the highly competitive Eastern College Athletic Conference in 1985-86 coin-cided with the arrival of Jack’s son, Rob, to West Point. However, after fi ve hard-fought campaigns in the ECAC, Army returned to its independent status in 1991-92 and fl ourished once again. Under Rob’s tutelage, the Black Knights posted back-to-back 20-win seasons as an in-dependent, including a 24-9-1 ledger in 1995-

96. However, Army again joined the conference ranks, affi liating itself with College Hockey Amer-ica. The Black Knights would only spend one season in the CHA. In 2000-01, a move to the MAAC was made. That residence was short-lived as well when Army and eight other MAAC schools broke away from the predominantly basketball conference and formed a “hockey-only” conference. The Atlantic Hockey Association was born in July of 2003. Rob carried on the family tradition, picking up the torch when his father passed it off and emerged from his long shadow while leaving his own indelible mark on the West Point hockey program. The boy who grew up watching his father guide the Army hockey fortunes won his 300th career game on Jan. 3, 2004. Together, the Riley’s are the all-time winningest father-son tandem, racking up 848 career wins. In the summer of 2004, Rob Riley stepped down as head coach and turned over the pro-gram and the family legacy to his younger broth-er, Brian. The fourth in a family of fi ve children, Brian won more games (11) in his fi rst season behind the Black Knights’ bench than any other previous mentor. He also accomplished some-thing his father and brother, were unable to – beating RMC on his fi rst try. Brian began to establish his own legacy by earning three consecutive Atlantic Hockey Asso-ciation “Coach of the Year” certifi cates.

ARMY’S HOCKEY TRADITIONS Though the Riley name may be synonymous with Army hockey, a myriad of players have left their mark along the banks of the Hudson. Each has helped weave the fabric of a program long recognized for its place among the best in col-lege hockey. Such standouts include: LeRoy Bartlett, the captain of Army’s fi rst two teams who returned to coach in 1911 and 1912; Frederic and Joseph

Tate, two brothers who died during World War II and for whom Tate Rink is named; and Henry “Hal” Beukema, team captain of the 1944 team who died during a training mission near Langley Air Force Base in 1954. The team’s “Most Valu-able Player” award bears his name. There have been others as well, including defenseman Ed Hickey; forwards Dave Merhar, Dave Rost, Tom Rost, George Clark, Andy Lun-dbohm and Dan Hinote; and goalies Brad Rob-erts, Ron Chisholm, Dan Scioletti, Neil Mieras and Daryl Chamberlain. Merhar and Clark led the nation in scoring as seniors. Merhar posted Academy records with 107 points and 57 goals in his senior year of 1969. Clark, meanwhile, amassed 83 points in 1974-75, while posting 47 goals in his junior and senior campaigns. In 1976-77, Dave Rost surpassed Merhar’s single-season scoring record with 108 points on the strength of 65 assists – one shy of his own school-record of 66 established during the 1974-75 season. Rost became the second hockey alumni inducted into the Hall of Army Sports in November 2005. Lundbohm, a 1999 graduate and two-time Beukema Award winner, joined the professional hockey ranks. A free-agent signee out of college by the San Jose Sharks, Lundbohm spent two seasons in the American Hockey League with the Sharks’ top farm club before succumbing to a series of knee injuries, which forced his retire-ment from professional hockey a couple of years ago. Hinote, a former linemate of Lundbohm’s in 1995-96, was selected in the seventh round of the 1996 NHL entry draft by the Colorado Ava-lanche. The Minnesota native played a large role in the Avalanche’s victory over the New Jersey Devils in the Stanley Cup Finals in 2001. He com-pleted his fi fth season in the NHL in 2003-04, helping Colorado to a second-place fi nish in the Northwest Division and the fourth best record in the Western Conference. Goalie Brad Roberts, who earned the Army Athletic Association Award, the Academy’s top athletic honor, is the latest player to pursue a professional career. He competed for the Youngstown Steelhounds of the Central Hockey League in each of the past two seasons. He com-piled a 23-12-4 record in 41 games two years ago and was named the team’s “Rookie of the Year” after fi nishing third in the CHL with wins. In 2007-08, he played in 13 games with a 6-5-1 mark before continuing his military career. Recently, goalie Josh Kassel became Army’s fi rst Division I All-American with a stellar junior season in goal while earning Atlantic Hockey As-sociation Player of the Year honors following the 2007-08 season. Zach McKelvie was named the Defense-man of the Year that same season and became Army’s fi rst two-time fi rst-team Atlantic Hockey all-star with honors his junior and senior sea-sons.

George Clark(Winnetka, Ill.)

The only two-time fi rst team All-East se-lection in Army hockey history, George Clark ranks third on the Black Knights’ all-time scoring charts (266 points) and fi rst in ca-reer goals (153). He holds two other school records as well, having posted 18 career hat tricks and stringing together four consecu-tive three-goal games during the 1972-73 campaign.

Tom Garver(West Point, N.Y.)

A local product from West Point, N.Y., Tom Garver is the measuring stick by which all modern day Army goalies are judged. Garver entered the Academy in 1973 and started ev-ery game that season for the Black Knights. His 75 career victories and 2,858 career saves are both school records. Garver was selected to the second team All-East squad in 1977, the same season that Dave Rost was named fi rst team All-East.

Dave Rost(Buffalo, N.Y.)

Army’s all-time leading scorer (330 points) and the only Black Knight to reach 300 points and 200 assists in a career. Rost posted nine hat tricks during the 1976-77 season, a campaign that saw him break the school record for points in a single season (108). He was a fi rst team pick in 1977.

Goalie Josh Kassel became Army’s fi rst Division I All-American selection with a phenomenal junior season. The 6-2, 180-pound Kassel earned second-team honors after posting an 18-10-2 record that included fi ve shut-outs, a 1.92 goals against average and a .925 save percentage. Kassel beat #20 Air Force by iden-tical 2-1 scores in a pair of games that were nationally televised. Twice, he reg-istered back-to-back shutouts and was named the Atlantic Hockey Association Player of the Year, the fi rst goalie to earn the honor. While the fi rst Division I All-American, Kassel is the fourth Army player to be recognized on a national stage. For-wards George Clark and Dave Rost and goalie Tom Garver were all honored prior to the Black Knights’ Division I af-fi liation.

Henry “Hal” Beukema (USMA ’44) was the captain of the 1944 Army hock-ey team and the son of a distinguished department head at the Academy.

Following his gradu-ation from West Point, Beukema became an Air Force pilot and served overseas in Berlin as well as in the states at Barksdale AFB in Louisi-ana. He died in a crash near Langley AFB in Vir-

ginia on Jan. 19, 1954, after achieving the rank of major. The Beukema Award, which was ini-

tiated in 1955, is given each year in the memo-ry of Maj. Beukema to the Army hockey team’s most valuable player. Ed Hickey was the fi rst recipient of the Beukema Award. Over the past 51 years, the award has gone to the

Army team captain a total of 22 times. From 1982 to 1986, the award went to the Army captain each year.

Mike Fairman (USMA ’01) became just the fi fth player in Army history to receive the honor twice when he took home the award in 2000 and 2001. He joined the illustri-ous company of former greats: Dave Merhar,

1968-69; George Clark, 1974-75; Dave Rost, 1976-77; and Andy Lundbohm,

1998-99. Joe Carpen-ter, Joe Dudek and Jon Boyle all epitomized the ideal of a team most valuable player, putting the best interests of the team ahead of their own personal aspirations. Both Carpenter and Dudek, recruited for-

wards under former coach Rob Riley,

switched to defense during their ca-reers to help a unit that lacked depth. Carpenter and Dudek made the transi-tion effortlessly, authoring all-star cam-

paigns in the process. Boyle worked his way from role player to team captain in four seasons at West Point. Goalies had a run of three straight awards that ended in 2009. Fol-lowing the stellar play

of Brad Roberts, Josh Kassel was pre-sented the award in two consecutive season. He is the sixth player to be hon-

ored in two consecutive seasons.

Defenseman Zach McKelvie was chosen following the 2008-09 season, the fi rst de-fenseman to win the award since Joe Dudek in 2003. Both players

were also team captains. McKelvie, a two-time, fi rst-team all league choice, played in all situations, scored fi ve goals and handed out 12 assists in his fi nal collegiate season.

HAGGERTY AWARD

This honor is presented annually to the Army hockey player who displays courage, determination and perseverance through-out the season. The Army hockey program was hit with a devastating setback on April 13, 1998,

when Paul Haggerty — a 1991 West Point gradu-ate, three-year letterman for the Army hockey team and an assistant coach under Rob Riley since 1996 — died suddenly during a workout.A former Beukema Award

winner, Haggerty led Army with 16 goals during his senior season and was second on the team with 25 points. A tough, hard-skating forward, he spent his senior season on the Black Knights’ top line. He appeared in 86 games dur-ing his four-year career, missing only four contests over his fi nal three seasons and registering 27 goals and 43 points. Prior to his call-up to the varsity, Haggerty spent time with the jayvees during his freshman year.

HEINMILLER AWARD

This award is presented to the team’s Outstanding Freshman of the Year in honor of former player John Heinmiller. Heinmiller had just com-pleted his freshman sea-son with the Army hockey team when he was tragi-cally killed in a train acci-dent in April, 2001. H e i n m i l l e r

started his college hockey career with the junior varsity program at West Point, but

worked his way onto the varsity squad. He appeared in one game his plebe season. The inaugural John Heinmiller Award was presented to freshman forward Chris Garceau in 2002.

GUNNING AWARD

This accolade is presented in recogni-tion of the Cadet who displays the quali-

ties of “academic excel-lence, selfl ess dedication to his teammates, being a trusted friend, maintaining a sense of humor, playing through pain and adver-sity, and demonstrating a true love for hockey.” The Michael J. Gunning Award is named

in honor of the late Cadet letterman that died Oct. 12, 1996, following a hit-and-run accident in Dallas, Texas. Gunning, a 1996 USMA graduate, was a 2nd Lt. sta-tioned at Ft. Sill, Okla., at the time of his death. One of the team’s behind-the-scenes leaders, Gunning typifi ed the rugged, ag-gressive brand of hockey for which Army teams are renowned. He also personifi ed perseverance, spending two seasons on the junior varsity team before fi nally earn-ing a shot with the varsity. He closed his career with a stellar senior year as the center on Army’s forechecking line.

DEREK HINES AWARD

The Derek S. Hines Award recognizes a person who has displayed an extraordi-nary amount of support toward the Army Hockey Program. Like Derek, this person has always cared more about giving than receiving, while displaying a great passion and love for Army Hockey. The Army hockey family added a fi fth team award to its list of postseason hon-ors in 2006 in order to recognize Hines, who was killed in action on September 1, 2005. A scrappy and hard-nosed player, who earned four varsity letters and graduated from the Academy in 2003, Hines was a fan favorite and one of the most respected players in the Black Knights’ locker room. The fi rst Derek S. Hines Award was presented to Sid Rosner, a retired college hockey referee and long-time supporter of Army hockey. Rosner, a loyal fan and friend of Army hockey for more than 50 years, was also instrumental in starting the youth hockey program at West Point, along with Jack Riley and Charlie Weyant. Dave Weyant was honored with the sec-ond award for exemplifying those qualities through his involvement with West Point’s youth hockey program and his continued work as an off ice offi cial at Tate Rink for Army’s home games. Athletic Trainer Tim Kelly was the third recipient of the Hines Award. A veteran of more than 20 years at West Point, Kelly was honored for his selfl ess and dedicat-ed work with the hockey program. Cadet manager David Horvath is the most recent recipent of the award. Hor-vath worked tirelessy behind the scenes during his four years with the program and assisted the team in a multitude of ways.

ARMY HOCKEY AND

THE AAA AWARD

One of the most prestigious awards Army presents to its senior cadet-athletes is the Army Athletic Association Award. The honor has been bestowed every year since 1904 and like most things involving athletics at West Point, Army hockey has a major presence. Twelve hockey players have been presented with the AAA Award, an honor given to the most outstanding athlete of the senior class. Defenseman Zach McKelvie is the most recent hockey player to earn the honor. McKelvie played in 136 games during his career, scored 14 goals and handed out 44 assists. One of the fastest skaters in recent memory, McKelvie was a four-year contirbutor on special teams as well and was a two-time captain. McKelvie is the third hockey-only player to win the award. Brad Roberts, a four-year letterwin-ner and one of the greatest goaltenders in the history of the program, was the sec-ond hockey-only player to be recognized. Andy Lundbohm in 1999 was the fi rst. Maurice Daly, a two-time letterman was the fi rst hockey player to receive the award, in 1927. John Boretti also has his name on the trophy, along with 1959 re-cipient Pete Dawkins, who also won col-lege football’s Heisman Trophy that same year. Under legendary head coach Jack Ri-ley, a member of the hockey family twice won the Athletic Association’s top honor three times over a four-year period. A hockey star walked home with the athletic department’s highest honor three times between 1956 and 1959, and again be-tween 1965 and 1968.

Dave Rost Dave Merhar

During an era when hockey greatness was judged by 50 goals in 50 games, Army hockey established its own measuring stick when Dave Merhar scored 57 goals in 28 games and fi n-ished the season with 107 points. Eight years later, another Dave came along and surpassed Merhar’s seemingly unbreak-able record by one point. Considered two of the

fi nest hockey players ever to pass through the Academy’s iron gates, Dave Rost and Dave Merhar are the only cadets to top the 100-point plateau in a single season. Mer-har and Rost are one of only 12 college hockey players ever to author a 100-point campaign in NCAA history.

Merhar was the fi rst to do it, with a magical 57-goal, 50-assist campaign in just 28 games in 1968-69. Rost one-upped Merhar’s mark with a 108-point season (43G, 65A) that has stood as the Army record for the past 39 years. Prior to Merhar’s 107-point season, the previous school record had belonged to Mike Thompson, who totaled 66 points in 1963-64.

Surrounded by a solid supporting cast that in-cluded classmates Tony Curran and John Ahl-brecht, Merhar led the Black Knights to just their second 20-win season in 1968-69. Merhar had a point in all 28 contests and was held without a goal on just three occa-sions. He fi nished with six points or more seven different times during the season. He scored a season-high fi ve goals at the University of Pennsylvania in a 9-6 win. His 100-point effort established a new NCAA single-season scoring record and made him a charter member of the 100-point club. Before 1968-69, no other col-lege hockey player had ever scored 100 points in a single season. Merhar posted these amazing numbers against some of the top college hockey competi-tion in the East. The Black Knights faced nine of the 10 schools that comprise the powerful Hockey East today. Boston College, Northeast-ern and New Hampshire all dotted Army’s sched-ule. The Ely, Minn., native registered 17 points in those nine contests. The demands of playing a challenging Division I schedule did not slow the progress of the Black Knights’ star forward. Merhar also set a number of school records, two of which still stand today. He strung togeth-er a streak of 15 consecutive games in which he scored a goal, stretching from Jan. 11 (vs. St. Nick’s) to Feb. 24 (vs. Connecticut). Army was 11-4 during that stretch. Merhar also turned in nine hat tricks during the season, a record that was tied by Rost during his record-setting cam-paign but never surpassed. The 1976-77 season was also a terrifi c cam-paign for Army. Led by Rost’s record-setting pro-duction, the Black Knights went 22-6-1 and out-scored their opponents by a two-to-one margin, 202-101. Tom Rost, Dave’s brother, and John Harrison gave the Black Knights more than just one weapon in Army’s arsenal. With 78 and 74 points, respectively, Tom Rost and Harrison au-thored two of the top 20 single season scoring efforts in Academy annals. In addition, Tom Rost posted 97 points (40G, 57A) in 1979-80, good for third highest in Academy history. That is the closest anybody has come to the century mark at Army since. Dave Rost scored nine times against Bryant in an early-season 11-2 victory. Like Merhar, Rost earned a point in every game that season. Rost was particularly destructive to the visitor’s from the north. He posted 10 points in a week-end series against Canada’s College Militaire Royal, and registered a hat trick along with an assist on the last day of the season against the Royal Military College. That performance pushed him past Merhar for the single-season record. Rost fi nished the 1976-77 campaign tied with Clarkson’s Dave Taylor as the nation’s lead-ing scorer. Their 108 points that winter also broke Merhar’s NCAA single-season mark. Their standard would last another eight years until 1985.

It was Rost’s late season push that even-tually won him the school and NCAA record. Rost scored four points in each of his last three games, including two hat tricks. His 65 assists fell one shy of his own record of 66 set two years earlier. Rost tied Merhar’s record of nine hat tricks that season. His 43 goals is the fourth highest

total in Academy his-tory. The high-scor-ing forward became Army’s second All-American.

He fi nished his career as Army’s all-time leading scorer with 330 points, while also establish-ing an NCAA Division II record. In addition, Rost set the school’s single-season mark for assists in both a

single season (66) and a career (226). Rost became part of the Army Athletic Asso-ciation’s second Hall of Fame class in Novem-ber 2005 when he was inducted into the Army Sports Hall of Fame. Merhar was similarly hon-ored in 2006, joining legendary coach Jack Riley as the fi rst three predominantly associated with the hockey program to be honored.

Rivalries make sporting events special. International rivalries make them personal. The Army-Royal Military College rivalry celebrated 75 years dur-ing the 2005-06 season and it was billed as a continuation of the “oldest continuous international rivalry in sports.” The two teams have not played since a 3-3 tie in Kingston, On-tario on February 11, 2006 but there is denying the history of the competition. A grudge match that spans international borders and began with Brig. Gen. Douglas MacArthur and Maj. Gen. Sir Archibald Mac-Donnell 77 years ago was as vibrant and fi erce in the 21st Century as it was in the Roaring ’20s. Rob Riley, former coach and older brother to current head coach Brian Riley, tilted the international rivalry with their Canadian coun-terparts north of the border upon assuming the reins from his father, Jack, in 1986-87. Army authored a 12-game unbeaten streak (10-0-2) against RMC after a 4-3 setback in Riley’s fi rst season. Since then, the Black Knights won fi ve of the fi nal seven meetings to hold a 10-game ad-vantage in the overall series. Included in Riley’s run of success was a streak of seven straight victories in which Army outscored RMC, 41-9. Over the years, the rivalry took on epic proportions similar to the Army-Navy football contest. “The RMC game is a great experience because not only are you playing another military academy, but you are representing your country as well,” said Col. (Ret.) Jim Knowlton, former forward for the Black Knights. “(Army) always played with additional intensity, and the game was one of the most physical of the season. It is a great battle that takes everyone’s game to the next level.” The Military Academy also recognized the importance of the ri-valry. Any athlete who participated in a win over RMC receives a gold maple leaf to be worn over his or her varsity “A” letter. Athletes who secure wins over Navy receive a gold star, while wins over Air Force earn a silver star. The idea of a hockey matchup between the Canadian and Amer-ican service academies sprouted in 1921 from then Brig. General Douglas MacArthur. MacArthur, then the superintendent of the Mili-tary Academy, wrote a letter to Maj. Gen. Sir Archibald MacDonnell, commandant of RMC, to suggest that the two military schools play. Letters and ideas continued to be exchanged between the two academy leaders and details were fi nalized. On Feb. 23, 1923, a party of Royal Military College offi cers and cadets traveled to West Point for the fi rst game. That inaugural contest was played on a natural rink adjacent to the West Point Gymnasium, now known as Arvin Gym. The Black Knights, who began playing hockey in 1904, used that open-air sur-face until they moved into Smith Rink on Jan. 31, 1931. The Pala-dins won that fi rst game, 3-0. The New York Tribune gave the following account of that fi rst encounter, “Army was beaten at hockey today by the Royal Military College of Kingston, Ontario. The Canadian cadets excelled the Army men all the way, displaying the best all around form seen here in years. Hamilton and the two Carr-Harrises were the outstanding stars on the Canadian team. Beano (the Army goalie), was a busy man and made some truly remarkable saves ... The game was one of the cleanest fought contests staged here this winter, and was marked by a fi ne display of sportsmanship on both sides.”

In commemoration of that fi rst game, RMC presented a cup known as the “Challenge Trophy” to the United States Military Acad-emy. Although the trophy was expected to remain at West Point, a myth arose in the early years of the series that the trophy was pre-sented to the losing team. The following winter, 1924, the Black Knights traveled to Kings-ton. Army had played hockey since 1904 (138 games) and this was the fi rst contest away from West Point. In fact, with the exception of their trips to Canada every other year, Army continued to play only home games until 1941. Royal Military College won that 1924 tilt 10-5, ruining the home-coming of fi rst-year Army coach Ray Marchand. The Pointer, the Corps newspaper, said of this game, “... More-over, stronger opponents than the Canadian cadets could hardly have been found anywhere. That the men emerged on the short end of the score as close as ten to fi ve is little short of miraculous. “The international contest was noteworthy also for the clean sportsmanship that prevailed. Not a foul marred the progress of the game, and both schools are eager to continue the annual meeting of the two service academies.” No penalties were called in the series until 1954. In that game, at the urging of Army coach Jack Riley, infractions were called. The fi rst penalty came against Dirk Lueders, the Army goalie. The Paladins dominated the early series, winning 14 of the fi rst 15 games, with the other ending in a 4-4 tie in 1935. Army earned its fi rst victory in 1939, a 3-2 decision in Kingston. After a two-year break, the matchup resumed in 1942 with Army winning, 3-1. Royal

Military College closed during World War II, and when the teams met again in 1949, the Black Knights secured a 5-4 win as parity fi -nally seeped into the series. Riley took over the Army program in 1951 and the Black Knights quickly gained ground on its adversaries from the north. Army won 15 of the 20 games in the 1950s and 1960s to forge an 18-21-1 record in the overall series. “It is similar to the Army-Navy football game,” Riley said. “U.S. and Canadian am-bassadors have been known to attend. It is always very intense.” The early 1970s was the “tie” era, with three of the four contests between 1973 and 1976 ending deadlocked. Interestingly, four of the six ties in the series happened to be 4-4. Overtime was not played during these years. The only previous overtime game went to RMC, 3-2, in 1955. In the early 1980s, it was decided that overtime would be reinstated. Until the 1998 game, the two most re-cent overtime contests had been in 1989 and 1990. Rich Sheridan’s last minute goal gave Army a 3-2 win in 1989, while his apparent last-second goal in regulation was disallowed in 1990 and the game fi nished deadlocked 3-3 following a scoreless extra session. The teams played evenly from the mid-1970s through the mid-1980s, with each winning fi ve games. When Riley retired in 1986, he had brought the Black Knights to

within one game of overtaking RMC in the series. At that time, the Paladins held a slight 26-25-4 edge. But with the arrival of Riley’s son, Rob, to the bench, Army dominated its military brothers. The Black Knights did not lose to the Royal Military College of Canada in the 1990s. Two ties, in 1990 and 1998, were the only blemishes on an otherwise spec-tacular 10-year run. RMC’s 3-0 win in 2000 ended a 12-game unbeaten streak and got the Paladins off to a good start in the new millennium. However, Army rebounded with a big win at Tate Rink in 2001 that had tipped the scales in the Americans’ favor once again. In 2003 as a salute to both country’s men and women defending the world’s free-dom overseas, the National Hockey League supplied offi cials for the contest held in the Kingston Memorial Centre. Former RMC head coach Danny MacLeod contacted the NHL, which was able to comply with the for-mer coaching legend’s request as most of-fi cials enjoyed a weekend off for the profes-sional league’s annual all-star game. Jack Riley, who coached Army Hockey from 1951 through 1986, was behind the bench for 22 victories, fi nishing his career with a 22- 11-3 (.653) record against the Paladins. Rob etched a remarkable 13-3-2 (.778) account in his 18 seasons at the helm, while Marchand posted two victories and Len Pat-ten added the other. In 2005, Brian Riley notched a victory in his fi rst game versus RMC, accomplishing something his father and brother failed to do. Three years ago, Army and RMC skated to a 3-3 draw in Kingston. Together, the Ri-ley family has accounted for 36 of Army’s 39 wins in the history of the series. Although the rivalry began as a hockey-only battle, the rivalry has expanded over the years to include competition in rifl e, pistol, men’s volleyball, karate, judo and debating. The annual encounter with RMC is billed as “RMC Weekend” at the military academy. The atmosphere in the arena always resem-bles that of an Olympic event, complete with spectators waving their country’s fl ag in sup-port of their team.
