WEST POINT, N.Y. – After last competing over a week ago, the Army West Point men's soccer team finishes off its current three-game road trip on Wednesday when it travels to Worcester, Mass., to face Holy Cross at 7:05 p.m.
The Black Knights were last on the field on Sept. 26, falling in their Patriot League opener at Lafayette, 1-0. Army was scheduled to play Navy at PPL Park in Chester, Pa., on Oct. 2, but the match was postponed until Nov. 3 due to unplayable weather conditions.
Army holds a 16-14-3 lead in an all-time series against Holy Cross that dates back to 1983. The Black Knights and the Crusaders played to a 3-3 draw on Oct. 29 at West Point last season, with Army netting a go-ahead goal to go up 3-2 in the 87th minute, before Holy Cross answered with the game-tying goal in the 89th minute.
