WEST POINT, N.Y. – The Army West Point men's soccer team returns to Clinton Field for its final two home matches of the season, beginning with a contest against Colgate on Wednesday at 7 p.m.

The Black Knights enter the week tied for the sixth and final Patriot League Tournament spot with eight points. Army stands one point behind both Lehigh and Navy and two behind third-place American. Army and Navy come into the week with four league games remaining, while the other eight Patriot League teams have three. Colgate currently occupies the league's second position with 12 points on the season.

Army holds a 34-24-5 all-time lead against Colgate in a series that dates back to Army's first varsity season in 1921.

Army came away with a 2-1 win at Colgate last season, with junior Nick Williams and sophomore Spencer Goldstein scoring goals for the Black Knights.
