June 29, 2026 | Football
WEST POINT, N.Y. — Army West Point football and head coach Jeff Monken officially welcomed the Class of 2030 to the program on Reception Day at the United States Military Academy on Monday.
"We're excited to welcome the next generation of leaders to the Army Football Brotherhood," said Monken. "The Class of 2030 is an impressive group of high-achieving student-athletes and emerging leaders who have chosen to serve something bigger than themselves. They'll make an immediate impact on our program this fall and in the years ahead. I'm proud of our coaching and recruiting staff for bringing in such a high-character group from all corners of the country."
The Black Knights welcome 72 newcomers from 22 states, with Georgia and California leading the way with 11 players.
The 2025 Army Football season concluded with a 7–6 record capped by a Wasabi Fenway Bowl victory, a landmark win at Kansas State, and a 5–2 second-half surge led by quarterback Cale Hellums. The Black Knights also achieved major individual milestones and honors, reinforcing the program's sustained national success and consistency under head coach Jeff Monken, as proven by his 6-1 bowl record.
