Coach's Quotes:Â
"TCU is currently ranked number two, and they are habitually just a very tough team," said head coach Web Wright. "They came in here last year and set the range record, they shot really well. I expect that they will continue to shoot well, which means that we've got to up our game a little bit. We are coming off a pretty good match last week where we shot our season high. We've been working hard, and I think we can replicate that, or do a little bit better."

Army (2-5) (GARC 1-3)
Â
THE COMPETITION:
Texas Christian University (6-1)
UP NEXT:
The Black Knights are back in action after the winter break to host the University of Kentucky in a conference matchup at home on January 13th.
