A combination of youth and experience will be the recipe at the big weights, as Army preps for their season opener on Sunday at home vs Oregon State! I hope to see everyone there!!!
197 Pounds
Three PA products are all options at this weight, with junior Daniel Lawrence the projected starter. He was 15-8 last year at 184 and makes the move up in an attempt to secure a starting role. He will be challenged by Georgia product Tom Godbee who was 11-9 at this weight last year. Keystone staters Kyle Swartz and Wolfgang Frable are options, as well as Eli Pack who was at USMAPS last year.
Heavyweight
Utah product Kade Carlson is back after winning matches at the EIWA tourney last year. He was 14-7 in his freshman campaign. Senior Paul Robinson will be a threat here as well, he brings a 23-19 overall record into his final year. Black Knight fans should be excited for the arrival of freshman Austin Kohlhofer, an Ohio product who was the 5th ranked HS HWT in the nation last year. Clearly the upper weights are a strength for Coach Ward and the Knights
