Army must bring back the fire they played with down in Key West and go 3-0 in their final tournament of the regular season.

Looking at Division I, only URI, Towson , UConn, and RIT have clinched a playoff birth in Feasterville. The three remaining spots are in a tight race between all the other teams in DI with the exception of BU and Northeastern. Army currently stands at 4-9 with three games remaining next weekend in Lemoyne against Pittsburgh , Delaware , and Maryland . In order for a shot at regionalâ??s in March, Army must bring back the fire they played with down in Key West and go 3-0 in their final tournament of the regular season. Although they will stand at 7-9, the Black Knights can still make the playoffs if Binghamton goes 0-2-1 or worse in their final three games, Penn St. goes 1-0-1 or worse in their final match-ups, and both Buffalo and Delaware finish the year at 7-9. Buffalo and Delaware are both 5-5, and Buffalo already dropped a decision to Army last week 4-3, so head-to-head would put Army ahead of them. While the current situation looks rather bleak for the Cadets, you can bet that they are up in the mountains of New York saying, "I believe."
