Army Team Handball completes the Tri-State Tough Mudder
Many of the returning players completed the Tri-State Tough Mudder on Oct 20th this year. Team Captains Ian Emory and Craig Champlin organized the trip as an effort to build teamwork and camaraderie.

Academy Grads Shoot for the Olympics The US National Team begins play this Sunday in the Pan Am Games against the Dominican Replublic. There is a strong military presence on the roster, including Justin Key a 2009 graduate of West Point. Also on the team are two Air Force Academy graduates Carsen Chung (2009) and Danny Kimmich (2007). Alex Mullin (West Point, 2007) was named to the team as an alternate.

Black Takes Second; Mullane Leading Scorer

The final game of the weekend saw West Point Black lose by 3 to Celtique de Montreal in the First Annual Thanksgiving Tournament (Tournoi Action de Grâce) in Montreal. It was a strong game for Black after falling behind 6-0 in the opening minutes. We took the lead by half-time and still led by the middle of the second half. A series of 2-minute penalties and the experience of Celtique put the game out of reach. At one point we played at a man disadvantage for 6 minutes out of a 7 1/2 minute stretch. For the weekend, we were 3 -1, defeating Boston, Levis, and Champlain before losing to Celtique, 31-28. Firstie Jared Mullane earned top-scorer honors and Cow Kristian Schott played his best games yet in the goal.

Gold Makes Strong Progress The Gold team made huge improvements that we just could not cash in for a victory. We lost all four games (to the same four opponents as Black). The final game was a two-goal lost to a very strong Boston game. Many individuals stood out for Gold including Yearling Drew College who anchored the defense and played a strong pivot all weekend. Gold plays next in Colorado Springs against the Air Force Academy on November 4th.

Next Up: Chicago - October 28-30th
Army Black will travel to Chicago on October 28 for the Michael Lipov Memorial Cup, hosted by Chicao Inter Team Handball Club. Last year we placed second, losing to NY Athletic Club in the finals. We're working hard to better our results this year. We will play twice on Friday (at 2 PM and 8 PM), twice on Saturday (at 12:20 PM and 3:50 PM), and once on Sunday, depending on earlier results.

Season Starts on Saturday in Montreal On Thursday, "Coach E", former coach Colonel Mike Endres spoke to the team about his 1998 team success, some stories of his former players, and just life in general. The current team connected immediately with him and look to carry his wisdom into the new season... which starts tomorrow! October 8 and 9 will mark the first official event of the 2011-2012 season with the Tournoi Action de Grâce (English: Thanksgiving Tournament) in Montreal. At 8:30 AM on Saturday West Point Gold will face Celtique of the Quebec league, followed immediately by West Point Black facing Boston for the first of many times in 2011-2012. The two-day tournament will give both of our teams some great competition early in the season. Black is nearing game-ready condition after six weeks of hard work. Gold will look to climb the steep learning curve as at least six players will play in their first-ever handball game. On Tuesday we played a full 60-minute intra-squad scrimmage and scored over 75 goals in a fast paced game. Shown here is Firstie Geoff Ranowsky scoring for Gold.

Second Annual Homecoming Game: Cadets Win by Two For the second year in a row, Army Handball hosted an Alumni vs. Cadets Game on the Friday of Homecoming weekend. Both years the rosters were heavy on the 10-year reunion class, with a few handball players from other classes rounding out the roster. Once again the Alumni lost in a close contest, but no one was too disappointed. This year we had two standouts from the class of 1991 lead the way, Vic Lindenmeyer (who looked like he played on the 2011 team) and Jeff Gabel (the most physical grad on the court). With a lineup full of members of the class of 2001, shouts of “Strokes” and “B-Duncs” made it seem as if Coach Negin or Coach E was patrolling the sideline. Players from that class included Mike “Strokes” Gilmartin (who can still score on 12 meter jump shots), Major Brian Duncan (who definitely married up), Major Pete Exline (who played a solid game in the goal), Captain Chris Gonzalez (who was solid from either wing or back), and Major Tony Wrice (currently the women’s team coach). Current men’s team coaches Captain Harry Terzic (in DPE) and Major Mike Tilton (’00) rounded out the roster giving the BLACK team a few subs. Major Sean Morrow (who showed up late after teaching last-hour class wearing Class Bs) and Chris Catron (bum knee) made up the coaching staff. Notice in the picture that the only alumni that crossed the aisle to stand with the youth is the current coach. Other "historical" photos" of many of these alumni can be found on our team website. Of course a brief post-game tailgate was in order, as well as the annual discussion about how we need to get a Knight Air team together this year. Next year, we’ll be leaning on members of the Class of 2002 to carry the load. All alumni in town that weekend are welcome to join us! Mark your calendars for October 12th, 2012!

Season Schedule
The rest of the fall semester is highlighted by the Michael Lipov Memorial Cup in Chicago (October 28th to 30th), a trip to the Air Force Academy (November 4th), and a home weekend for the Northeast League on December 2nd and 3rd. The spring semester will feature more tournaments, including the California Cup in Fremont in January, the West Point Invitational in early March, Collegiate Nationals in Richmond, Virginia in April, and Open Nationals in Minneapolis the week before Graduation. Also the black team will play in two other Northeast League weekends in Boston in February and DC in April.

New Season - New Roster After a season of success at both College Nationals and Open Nationals, Army Handball kicked off the new academic year with high hopes for the upcoming fall season. Led by captains Greg Ayers ('12) and Mark Conard ('12) the team returned a deep Firstie class including circles Brenden Reber and Joe Clark, backs Eric "Stunna" Jones, Jev Valles, and Geoff Ranowsky, and wing Kevin Rice. Also on Black this semester are also Cows Brian Teaton and Bob Allibone along with the never blinking Kristian Schott in goal. The team is also featuring six new players who will look to contribute including former Army wideout Sean Boyle and two new goalies ready to be molded under the tutelage of coach and former goalie Major Mike Tilton. The coaching staff has expanded significantly, too. Captain Harry Terzic has joined the DPE team and is helping at practice. Major Sean Morrow has brought his National Team Experience to practice and has made impacts on our circles. Rounding out the staff are Major Lee Evans (Math) and Major George Aubert (TAC).

Marc Named to First Captain
Team co-captain Marc Beaudoin has been named the Brigade Commander of the Corps of Cadets, also known as the First Captain, for the 2010-2011 school year. In the words of our Vice President, this is a pretty big deal. Congrats to Marc for making all of us proud!

Five of our new LTs pin together at Ft. Putnam

Our final event of the year will be a farewell dinner at the West Point Club on Friday, 7 May 1700~2000. Please come join us as we recognize our eight graduating Firsties and celebrate another terrific season of West Point Team Handball.

Team Captains for 2010-2011 Announced
Rising Firsties Adam Moore and Marc Beaudoin will be the team captains for the upcoming season. Congrats to Adam & Marc!

Congratulations to Jack Gibson
It's been quite a week for Jack. Over the weekend he was named MVP of the USATH College Nationals by leading WP Gold to the finals and on Tuesday, he was awarded the Coach K Teaching Character Through Sport award. Go Jack! This marks the second time in four years that the award went to an Army Handballer as Jonathan Harmeling received the award in 2007.

Jason & his caddie get into the Sosh Run spirit
It was a beautiful day for a Sosh Run yesterday. So nice that Jason decided to tee-off on his paper. Special thanks to his caddie, Andy "Fluff" Theising, and to Kristian Schott for working the crowd control. Rickey Royal was actually turning his in with only minutes to spare and said that he was on his way back to the barracks for some much needed rack time. Check out all the sosh run action at this link.

Fooooooore!	Jason and his crew	Rickey looking tired

Congrats to Marc Beaudoin!
Marc was recently awarded a Truman Scholarship. In the words of our Vice President, that's a pretty big deal. Big congrats to Marc and we wish him luck as he competes for the Rhodes Scholarship next year...

The guys cross train with our National Champion Judo team
On Tuesday 30 March, our guys trained judo with West Point's Judo club, which recently defeated San Jose State for the USA Judo Collegiate National title in College Station, Texas. Our guys gained an appreciation for the toughness and warrior spirit displayed in the art of Judo. To see all the photos from our training, check out this link. We're returning the favor to the Judo team when we get them out on the handball court on Thursday, 1 April (no fools!). Video of the guys judo fighting can be found here.

Headed out West Once Again
Mom's & dads who live out west, we're headed to Colorado Springs for the Falcon Cup which starts Friday night. The schedule should be posted on Monday. We hope to sell all who can make it out there and pray for good traveling weather!

Team placing gear order
Our team is placing an order soon (~20 Feb) for team gear items such as shirts, sweats, and hats. If you are interested in getting in on the order, please contact CDT Adam Moore, or just email me and I'll get you in touch with him.

Many thanks to all the Moms and Dads who helped out this weekend
We had a great weekend of handball and fellowship between the teams and the parents and families. Many players had their parents at the event, some traveling from down South and out West. Thanks so much to the "local" parents who worked so hard try to keep the guys feed, which is hard to do. Special thanks to Mrs. Giordano and Durso and Mr. Flynn for cooking up the delicious ribs on site. Many parents chipped in with help and support as well and we say a big thank you to them all. We also had great support from cadets and members of the West Point staff and faculty.

MAJ Habhab returns to help out at the WPI
Former head coach MAJ Travis Habhab and his wife will be on hand this weekend at the tournament to help out with the Gold squad as I can't be two places at once and run the tournament! Major thanks to him and Tara for taking the time to come back to USMA and help out the team. Also, we are a go for selling refreshments to the other teams. The guys are doing this and I don't want the mom's to feel obligated to help with this in any way. This does not preclude moms from bringing food and beverage for our own players, as you have always so generously done. We'll have at least one player at all times manning the concessions table on the 2nd floor landing by the juice bar (with the exception of 1100 when both teams play at the same time). If any moms want to help cover that particular shift, it would really help out.

Goats beat the Engineers at Sloppy Daly Field
Three of our Firsties: Tim Flynn, Greg Durso, & Dexter Wise played in the annual Goat-Engineer football game Wednesday night the 9th of Dec. At a sloppy Daly Field, the Goats were victorious over our three Engineers (who said handball players weren't smart?). The guys gave it a good effort and that score was close until the end. Way to go fellas. See all the photos of the game action at: http://gallery.me.com/avhodges#100063

Last Home Event of the Semester 5 December
Our last home game(s) of the fall semester will be at Arvin starting at 1000 on 5 December. Just the Black team will be playing, but due to injuries, some Gold players may get a chance to step up and log some minutes. We again have the 2nd floor landing reserved and we were able to secure the 2nd floor gym as our court, so no having to walk up 2 flights of stairs to see the guys play! Gold players will be on hand to assist the score table duties as well, so there will be lots of hungry handball players to feed. Mrs. Gio is taking the lead as usual, so mom's shoot her an email or give her or my wife a call. Our home email is: avhodges@mac.com if you want to shoot her a note. We hope to see you all for a great afternoon of team handball.

Jack Gibson leads H1 to Company Athletic Football Championship
Firstie Circle Jack Gibson was a combination of Roger Staubach and Troy Polamalu on Monday night, playing ever down as the Quarter Back and Free Safety for the H1 Roothawgs as they took on the Gamecocks of company C3 in the Brigade Company Athletics football championship. In a tight game early where they fell behind 6-0 at the half, Jack took over in the 2nd half, with two interceptions, one for a score, and two long rushing touchdowns, Jack scored all three of H1's TDs and had some crushing hits on defense. Way to go Jack!

October Has Been Busy
We've been very busy the last few weeks. This weekend we get a break during the Halloween weekend, then we head out west to Colorado to take on the Air Force Academy Falcons on Friday 6 Nov. We look forward to seeing all the families who can make the game. Admission will be free and the games will be played in the "central cadet gymnasium".

Also, check out our new "promotional video", featuring highlights from our last two tournaments in NC and Chicago:

Will is Doing Well
Thanks to all the parents and family who have lent their support and prayers to Will Schuh and his family. Will is doing well following surgery and is spending the weekend on pass recovering with his family. Thank again to all!

West Point Men's Team Handball

jolly68205 — Thu, 19 Apr 2012 22:48:24 CDT

Welcome to the homepage for men's Team Handball at West Point. Founded in the 1975-1976 season, West Point's handball program has a proud and rich tradition. We are one of the oldest active handball clubs in the US and are the current & 4-time defending Collegiate National Champions and two-time defending Blue Cup Champions, and are the current Armed Forces Cup, and Falcon Cup Champions. In our club's 34 years of existence, we've been ranked as USTHB's College Champions 25 times. We have sent 30 members of our team to international competition as Olympians or members of Team USA or the Army's World Class Athlete program.

We play our home games in Arvin gymnasium on the campus of the United States Military Academy at West Point. Much like West Point's very successful rugby program, we are a Cadet Competitive Club team, meaning that we are not an NCAA sanctioned sport. However, our team receives "authorizations", allowing the members of the team to participate in practices in lieu of drill and travel on competition trips versus other college programs as well as top non-collegiate club programs. West Point has a long tradition of working closely with the national governing body of the sport, currently USA Team Handball.

Handball as a sport has its roots in Europe, where it is currently played at its highest level. The International Handball Federation claims that except for soccer, handball is the most popular, watched, and played sport in the world. It has a a huge following in Europe as well as strong interest and participation just about everywhere else but in the United States. This article is a good explanation of the sport.

College National Champions

jolly68205 — Thu, 19 Apr 2012 22:46:33 CDT

	West Point has set the standard for excellence by becoming the dominate collegiate team handball program in the country since its founding in 1976. We have won the collegiate national championship in 23 of our 34 years of existence. In the old days, the championship was determined from the highest standings for a college team at the national finals tournament. Since the Atlanta Olympics in 1996, the process of determining the College National Champion has been its own separate competition. In recent years, West Point, Air Force, and North Carolina have been the dominate college programs, with Army winning the last four and 23 of the last 33 titles.

Brotherhood

mwtilton — Fri, 14 Oct 2011 21:09:54 CDT

Brothers & Sisters in Arms	"Brotherhood" is one of our core values because it relates a different type of bond than "teamwork". While teamwork can be both an act and a value, "brotherhood" is more a sense of belonging. Once you join West Point's Team Handball squad, you become a member of a brotherhood and it will connect you will a select group of graduates for the rest of your life. The tradition in our program is proud and distinguished. We have sent players and coaches to the Olympics and to many National Teams and tournaments. You too can be a part of that tradition. Its a tradition that cannot come about by one's own account. This excellence is only achieved through the work of your teammates and brothers, those fellow cadets, the families, and former players who support and lift you up. The brotherhood we wish to embody also extends to the greater team handball community, especially those here in the USA who are attempting to advance this wonderful sport. Our team has made me proud by being ambassadors of good will to the rest of the US handballers and to the foreign players and refs that we've encountered.

Our Core Values

mwtilton — Fri, 14 Oct 2011 21:07:58 CDT

Teamwork. Honor. Brotherhood.

A message from former Head Coach Major Adam Hodges, who was instrumental in selecting Teamwork, Honor, and Brotherhood as team values.

Webster defines a "value" as something such as a principle or quality that is intrinsically desirable as an end to itself. DCA sponsors and DPE governs competitive clubs for many reasons, the chief of which is the opportunity to teach character lessons through competitive sport. The competitive sports committee at DPE works hard to emphasize the core values that each of its club teams embrace. We as a team will adopt the triad of "teamwork, honor, and brotherhood". I will foster a command climate that emphasizes the pursuit of these values. This is my pledge to the team, our opponents, and our fans.

These values dictate how we play the game of handball and how we conduct ourselves on and off the court. No one player is above the team. A victory is hollow if it comes at the price of honor. We will bond together with current and former players and coaches in unity and lift each other up to a level which we could not individually achieve. Teamwork. Honor. Brotherhood. West Point Men's Team Handball.

Teamwork

mwtilton — Fri, 14 Oct 2011 21:04:47 CDT

Teamwork is both an act and an attitude. Its different than the ideal and value of "brotherhood" in that it requires action. Whereas brotherhood is about belonging, teamwork is about doing. When our cadets graduate and become Lieutenants and Platoon Leaders in today's Army engaged in the Long War, they must understand how to foster the value of teamwork in their units. A single rope strand by itself is weak, but when twined together to form a rope, it can help pull tremendous weights.

Team handball is a game of teamwork. A team of more talented individuals will fall to a group of less talented athletes who work together. The rules of the game favor the offense, so it takes supreme teamwork to effectively defend and defeat an effective offensive scheme. Our guys may not have the greatest technical skills, those that take years to learn though experience, but they will not be out hustled or out desired in an effort to work together for the win.

Our defense must function as one unit to be effective. One lapse in judgment or concentration is enough to allow the offense to score	Our defense working together - a clean hit and a heads up steal starts our fast break

2011-2012 Preview

mwtilton — Fri, 07 Oct 2011 00:20:36 CDT

Season Starts on Saturday in Montreal

On Thursday, "Coach E", former coach Colonel Mike Endres spoke to the team about his 1998 team success, some stories of his former players, and just life in general. The current team connected immediately with him and look to carry his wisdom into the new season... which starts tomorrow! October 8 and 9 will mark the first official event of the 2011-2012 season with the Tournoi Action de Grâce (English: Thanksgiving Tournament) in Montreal. At 8:30 AM on Saturday West Point Gold will face Celtique of the Quebec league, followed immediately by West Point Black facing Boston for the first of many times in 2011-2012.

The two-day tournament will give both of our teams some great competition early in the season. Black is nearing game-ready condition after six weeks of hard work. Gold will look to climb the steep learning curve as at least six players will play in their first-ever handball game.

On Tuesday we played a full 60-minute intra-squad scrimmage and scored over 75 goals in a fast paced game. Shown here is Firstie Geoff Ranowsky scoring for Gold.

Season Schedule

The rest of the fall semester is highlighted by the Michael Lipov Memorial Cup in Chicago (October 28th to 30th), a trip to the Air Force Academy (November 4th), and a home weekend for the Northeast League on December 2nd and 3rd. The spring semester will feature more tournaments, including the California Cup in Fremont in January, the West Point Invitational in early March, Collegiate Nationals in Richmond, Virginia in April, and Open Nationals in Minneapolis the week before Graduation. Also the black team will play in two other Northeast League weekends in Boston in February and DC in April.

Second Annual Homecoming Game: Cadets Win by Two

For the second year in a row, Army Handball hosted an Alumni vs. Cadets Game on the Friday of Homecoming weekend. Both years the rosters were heavy on the 10-year reunion class, with a few handball players from other classes rounding out the roster. Once again the Alumni lost in a close contest, but no one was too disappointed. This year we had two standouts from the class of 1991 lead the way, Vic Lindenmeyer (who looked like he played on the 2011 team) and Jeff Gabel (the most physical grad on the court).

With a lineup full of members of the class of 2001, shouts of “Strokes” and “B-Duncs” made it seem as if Coach Negin or Coach E was patrolling the sideline. Players from that class included Mike “Strokes” Gilmartin (who can still score on 12 meter jump shots), Major Brian Duncan (who definitely married up), Major Pete Exline (who played a solid game in the goal), Captain Chris Gonzalez (who was solid from either wing or back), and Major Tony Wrice (currently the women’s team coach). Current men’s team coaches Captain Harry Terzic (in DPE) and Major Mike Tilton (’00) rounded out the roster giving the BLACK team a few subs. Major Sean Morrow (who showed up late after teaching last-hour class wearing Class Bs) and Chris Catron (bum knee) made up the coaching staff. Notice in the picture that the only alumni that crossed the aisle to stand with the youth is the current coach. Other "historical" photos" of many of these alumni can be found on our team website. Of course a brief post-game tailgate was in order, as well as the annual discussion about how we need to get a Knight Air team together this year. Next year, we’ll be leaning on members of the Class of 2002 to carry the load. All alumni in town that weekend are welcome to join us! Mark your calendars for October 12th, 2012!

New Season - New Roster

After a season of success at both College Nationals and Open Nationals, Army Handball kicked off the new academic year with high hopes for the upcoming fall season. Led by captains Greg Ayers ('12) and Mark Conard ('12) the team returned a deep Firstie class including circles Brenden Reber and Joe Clark, backs Eric "Stunna" Jones, Jev Valles, and Geoff Ranowsky, and wing Kevin Rice. Also on Black this semester are also Cows Brian Teaton and Bob Allibone along with the never blinking Kristian Schott in goal. The team is also featuring six new players who will look to contribute including former Army wideout Sean Boyle and two new goalies ready to be molded under the tutelage of coach and former goalie Major Mike Tilton.

The coaching staff has expanded significantly, too. Captain Harry Terzic has joined the DPE team and is helping at practice. Major Sean Morrow has brought his National Team Experience to practice and has made impacts on our circles. Rounding out the staff are Major Lee Evans (Math) and Major George Aubert (TAC).

2010-2011 Wrap-Up

mwtilton — Wed, 05 Oct 2011 00:49:53 CDT

WELCOME TO THE NEW ARMY TEAM HANDBALL NEWSLETTER

- WRAPPING UP THE 36TH SEASON OF ARMY HANDBALL -

In this issue:

Comm Commissions Handball Graduates

4th Place at Open Nationals

2011 Team Awards

Hodges Earns Coach K Award

Commissioning New Handball Alumni
Major General William Rapp, USMA class of 1984, honored the team by conducting a commissioning ceremony after graduation on May 21. MG Rapp was the captain of Army Team Handball in 1983-1984 and coached the team from 1994 to 1996. Three of our newest graduates joined MG Rapp in his garden for a ceremony in which they took the oath of office and family members pinned Second Lieutenant bars on their new uniforms. Brand new lieutenants Rickey Royal, Jr., Cort Mukina, and Mike Darden took part. From left to right in the picture: Major Michael Tilton, '00, Cadet Jev Valles, '12, Cadet Eric Jones, '12, 2LT Rickey Royal, Jr., '11, 2LT Cort Mukina, '11, Cadet Kevin Rice, '12, 2LT Mike Darden, '11, Cadet Brenden Reber, '12, and MG William Rapp, '84. Worth noting: Brenden Reber is 6'9" and usually dwarfs the people on his flanks in group shots.

Burrda Sport National Championships Firstie (now 2LT) Rickey Royal, Jr. led the way on both offense and defense as Army Black placed 4th in the Elite Division at the 2011 Burrda Sport USA Team Handball National Championships from May 13-15 in Salt Lake City. Army took full advantage of the opportunity of a Wild Card into the Elite Division. Right off the bat we beat Carolina Blue (alumni team) 24-22. We followed with a 3-goal win against Boston, who was our biggest rival this year. After a loss to Denver, we knocked defending champion LA Team Handball out of the running with a physical 6-goal win.

The semi-final game was an infuriating 28-27 loss to Chicago Inter. We were in control the entire second-half. Two penalties in the final 5 minutes resulted in a 3-goal swing and us missing the championship game by the slimmest of margins.
In the Bronze Medal Game, we lost yet another physical struggle against Boston. The picture of Brendan Reber above was typical of the entire tournament. We seemed to always be playing Boston and always in physical contact with the opponent. After the tournament, some of us took in some of the local sights, including visits to Park City and the Olympic bobsled run, as well as a visit to Antelope Island State Park which is home to over 500 buffalo. Only 6 days short of graduation, Cort Mukina, '11, thought it would be a good idea to see how close he could get to some of the beasts. After such a physical weekend of play, he must have thought himself invincible and convinced his trusted wingman Jared Mullane, '12 to join him. They would have gone closer had their coach not called out to them and told them to stop. I did snap this picture for them and felt the need to share it.

2011 Team Awards
We awarded three awards this year. The most important of them is the James J. Thome Sr. Leadership Award, which Team Captain Rickey Royal, Jr. earned for outstanding leadership and sportsmanship. The first recipient on this award was Frank Wendt in 2000. All previous winners of the award can be found on our website. Rickey (shown scoring on a break against Boston in Utah) also won the Captain Henry Mershon Spengler III Memorial Award, which is awarded each year to the Outstanding Graduating Handball Player. Information on the remarkable Captain Spengler can be found here. Cort Mukina, '11, earned the USAA Spirit Award for selfless spirit to the team. In several tournaments this year, Cort was charged with player-coaching the Gold team when I could only be on one bench at a time. He led the Gold Team all the way to the second place finish at Collegiate Nationals in April. He was able to bring together a group of inexperienced players and lead them to big wins over UNC and Air Force at Collegiate Nationals and the West Point Invitational. Cort also made an impact on Black during the California Cup and as a defensive specialist at the Club National Championships in Utah.

Coach K Award to Adam Hodges
For the third time in the five years that the award has existed, a member of Army Team Handball won the Mike Krzyzewski Teaching Character Through Sport Award. Last season's Head Coach and Officer-in-Charge, Major Adam Hodges (shown here in his signature shirt and tie) earned this very prestigious award this year for his efforts reinstating Team Handball as an Intramural Sport. Adam was unable to receive the award in person because he has already moved to Fort Hood and is currently deployed to Afghanistan. Adam is in good company receiving the award: among other winners in 2011 was Army Football Coach Rich Ellerson. In 2010 Jack Gibson won the award for Competitive Club Athletes and in 2008 John Harmeling won the award as a handball club athlete.

Team Farewell
On April 29th, the team had a farewell cookout for the six graduating Firsties. It was a chilly evening in New Brick housing area, but the team enjoyed the chance to socialize and say farewell to (now 2LTs) Marc Beaudoin, Adam Moore, Rickey Royal, Cort Mukina, Tim Wagner, and Mike Darden. We presented each of them with a team guidon representing their leadership of the club. Cadet First Captain Marc Beaudoin (pictured) also confirmed that he did, indeed, own those shorts.

Head Coaches

mwtilton — Wed, 05 Oct 2011 00:48:31 CDT

The Team Handball program was founded by then Captain Jim Thome Sr., Tactical Officer for Company C-1. He petitioned the Commandant in 1975, gaining permission to begin competition for the 1975-1976 season. Two coaches have lead the team twice, Jim Thome, Sr and Terry Freeman. Two former head coaches were team captains themselves, Bill Rapp and Mike Endres. Three other coaches were former players, Kevin Volk, Chris Springer, and Michael Tilton.

Team Captains

mwtilton — Wed, 05 Oct 2011 00:47:44 CDT

	At a place like West Point, the team captain holds an even more special distinction as a leader among leaders. There have been 34 team captains in the program's history, starting with Marty Wisda in 1976 up to the current captain, Jason Borchik, of Copley, Ohio. Two captains have even returned as the head coach. The captain does more than communicate to the officials during games. He holds real authority in team decisions, operations, discipline, and accountability.
