GRR: West Point
The Army West Point men's rugby team managed to get by a very tough Dartmouth side 29-23 on Sunday, logging a nice victory against one of the top DIAA teams in the nation.
Army was coming off a loss to Trinity, the Dublin University team that toured the East Coast, and this game offered a chance to rebound.
Army shut out Air Force 42-0 Friday night to take the lead in the Commander-in-Chief Trophy series among the three military academies.
West Point's win capped off a remarkably successful fall, during which the Black Knights went 9-0 and won the Rugby East.
The Rugby East Conference comes down to this weekend, with West Point taking on Penn State.
Both teams are undefeated, with Army sitting at 5-0 and Penn State at 3-0. Army is coming off a 58-27 defeat of Notre Dame College that head coach Matt Sherman called one of his team's best performances to date.
The Army West Point men’s varsity rugby team is seeking a full time assistant coach at the United States Military Academy.
Responsibilities will include assisting and leading all aspects of the program, including but not limited to:
Coaching, Recruitment, Communications, Fundraising and Development, and
Operations, Management and Administration.
The US Military Academy officers, coaches, and players at West Point got a special visitor this past spring when New Zealand All Blacks Head Coach Steve Hansen and Mental Skills Coach Gilbert Enoka visited the rugby program and instructors.
