Army Takes on Patriot League Championships

February 16, 2018 | Men's Track and Field

WEST POINT, N.Y. – The Army West Point men's track and field team will travel down to Lewisburg, Pa., for the Patriot League Indoor Championships this weekend, hosted by Bucknell.

Last year at this meet, Army placed second with 168.66 points, while service academy rival Navy claimed first with 187 points. Army took first place in the 60m, the 400m, the mile, pole vault, and weight throw. Ben Sims ran a team season-best time at this meet in the 60 meters, clocking in at 6.75 seconds. This set a new school record for Army in that event.

Going into the meet, Jeff Giannettino holds the top Patriot League score in the high jump, while Tyler Davis leads in the 60-meter dash. Tyler Maddox holds the top spot in the 500-meter dash, Lee Bares set the top score in the pole vault, and Kenneth Brinson leads in the weight throw. The Distance Medley Relay team of Keagan Smith, Tyrell Maddox, Nick Causey, and Roman Ollar also earned the top time in the Patriot League standings.

The DMR team, Brinson, and Giannettino's scores are all nationally ranked. Brinson is currently 58th in the weight throw, Giannettino is 41st in the high jump, and the relay team is settled in the 65th spot.
