September 17, 2025 | Men's Basketball
WEST POINT, N.Y. — Army West Point men's basketball released its Patriot League schedule for the 2025-26 season on Wednesday.
"Our team is excited for the upcoming season, and learning our Patriot League schedule is the last piece to the puzzle and adds some extra fuel to the fire," head coach Kevin Kuwik said. "We have plenty of work to do between now and then, including a challenging non-conference schedule, but we are looking forward to the opportunity to build on the steps we took as a program last year."
Kuwik enters his third season at the helm for the Black Knights, totaling a 27-38 overall record and a 16-20 Patriot League record in his first two seasons at West Point.
Army will look to capture its first Patriot League title in program history, hoping to build on a historic 2024-25 season. The Black Knights finished the season 17-16 overall with a 10-8 record in Patriot League play, which tied the program record for most Patriot League wins in a season.
Last season, the Black Knights were part of a four-way tie for third place and ultimately clinched the sixth seed in the Patriot League tournament. They fell to the Colgate Raiders in the quarterfinal round of the tournament.
