Navy would win the toss & deferred to the second half, Army would start the game with the ball & they would take the opening drive of game and scores touchdown for a 7-0 lead.

Late in the first half, Navy would get a nice drive going but they would make a mistake as Army would pick it off and just ruin anything Navy could muster.

Army would lead 7-0 at the end of the first half.

In the second half, the defense would be the story of the game as both teams would make some big stops. Navy would finally get on the board with a Touchdown and all of a sudden, we had a game.

Navy would get another drive going late in the 4th quarter but the Army Defense would come up with a big stop as they would force a turnover & Army would recover it.

Navy would make the game interesting late as they would connect on a 46 yard field goal to cut the Army lead to 7 at 17-10, Navy would try the onside kick and Army would recover it and that would be the game as Army takes down Navy 17-10 for Army third straight win vs Navy & back to back Commander-in-Chief’s Trophy.
