VESTAL, N.Y. – The Army West Point men's basketball team's (0-6, 0-0 PL) comeback attempt fell just short to Binghamton (4-3, 0-0 AE) by a score of 75-68 on Saturday afternoon.

Josh Scovens had a career day, scoring a career high 12 points on 5-9 shooting.

Ryan Curry was able to get going in the second half to finish with a team high 13 points.

TJ Small nailed a three with 56.3 left in the ball game to make it just a four-point game but that's the closet Army would get as they'd fall 75-68.

Charlie Peterson secured the first Army double-double of the year with 11 points and 10 rebounds. Kwabena Davis had a season high 10 points.

As a team, the Black knights had four players in double-figures for the first time this season.
