The Army Black Knights will welcome the Binghamton Bearcats at 1:00 p.m. ET on Sunday at Christl Arena. The Black Knights are strutting in with some offensive muscle as they've averaged 81.5 points per game this season.
Last Friday, things could have been worse for Army, but they could have been a whole lot better as they took a 75-60 loss to George Wash. The Black Knights have now taken an 'L' in back-to-back games.

Even though they lost, Army smashed the offensive glass and finished the game with 17 offensive rebounds. That strong performance was nothing new for the team: they've now pulled down at least 11 offensive rebounds in four consecutive matches.
Meanwhile, Binghamton came tearing into Wednesday's game with four straight wins (a stretch where they outscored their opponents by an average of 10.3 points) and they left with even more momentum. It was close, but they ultimately received the gift of a 62-60 victory from a begrudging Bearcats squad. For those keeping track at home, that's the closest win they have posted since February 29th.
Army's defeat dropped their record down to 5-5. As for Binghamton, they now have a winning record of 7-6.
Army came up short against Binghamton in their previous matchup back in November of 2023, falling 75-68. Will Army have more luck at home instead of on the road?
