WENDER'S WORDS

"Great win by our men today," head coach Mickey Wender said. "I couldn't be more proud of our heart and toughness. We represented West Point well by racing hard and being the best team on deck. Our mantra of 'do your job' kept us focused. Our coaches did a great job and our upperclassmen led well. We're in a good spot and the best is yet to come."
