WEST POINT, N.Y. (September 28, 2015) -- The U.S. Military Academy at West Point, Army West Point sprint football team earned its second-consecutive shutout of 2015 in impressive fashion, posting an, on the road, 86-0 victory over Princeton Sept. 25. 86 points is the most for a single game in program history.

The offense was very balanced with seven different players scoring touchdowns for the Black Knights. Of those seven, four had a multi-touchdown game. Cadet freshmen quarterbacks Brady Miller, Keegan West and Patrick Riley all scored more than once, in addition to Cadet sophomore running back Quay Gilmore. Miller is the only one out of the group that had scored prior to this game, which he did with a 12-yard pass to Cooper Lycan against Post.

Defensively, Army's team speed dominated the Tigers, as they rushed for -79 net yards on 23 carries. The Black Knights were also able to score a couple times on defense as well as Cadet sophomore Jake Marchillo and Cadet freshman Ryan Campi both recorded pick-sixes. Marchillo returned his 41 yards in the third quarter and Campi took his back 30 yards in the fourth quarter. Both were the first touchdowns of their careers.
