The three-day tournament runs from Thursday to Saturday at the Quicken Loans Arena. All six sessions will have each mat televised on ESPN for the fourth-consecutive year with the second round, semifinals and finals in prime-time slots. Tim Johnson and Anthony Robles will be covering the event for ESPN, along with Jim Gibbons and Billy Baldwin as a guest analyst.

ARMY(3-6,2-3EIWA)• Last time out, the Black Knights took eighth at the EIWA Championships with six podium finishes. • Weiland leads the team with 22 wins on the year and is one of four Army wrestlers with double-digit bonus point wins. • The sophomore 157-pounder owns 10 bonus point victories on two falls, three technical falls and five major decisions. • Harvey leads the squad with five wins over ranked opponents during the 2017-18 campaign, including top-10 opponents Ethan Ramos of North Carolina (7th) and Jadaen Bernstein of Navy (8th).

ARMY AT THE NCAA CHAMPIONSHIPS• This will be the first time that all of Army’s competitors will be making their NCAA debuts since the 2012-13 championships when Connor Hanafee (141 lbs.) Daniel Young (149 lbs.), Paul Hancock (165 lbs.) and Bryce Barnes (197 lbs.) did so. • Harvey is the fourth cadet-athlete to compete at 174 pounds in the last five years, joining his brother, Brian Harvey, who qualified in 2013-14, ’14-15 and ’15-16. • The Black Knights have earned 19 All-America honors in program history, most recently Matt Kyler in 2008 when he placed sixth at 141 pounds. • Army’s lone three-time All-American was Phillip Simpson from 2003-05. • The program’s best team finish came at both the 1965 and ’66 championships when the Black Knights finished 10th.

THE FIELD• There are 46 returning All-Americans from last year’s tournament, including eight of the 10 reigning champions. • The 157 and 174 pound weight classes are the deepest in that regard, each having a tournament-high six return-ing placewinners from a year ago. • The 197-pound weight class has the fewest returning All-Americans with three with neither 2017 finalist being in this year’s tournament. • Penn State and Ohio State both return six All-Americans, the most of any team.

Kevin Ward is entering his fourth season as the head coach for the Army West Point wrestling program. Through his first three years, Ward has led Army to a 13-18 record and has coached 13 wrestlers to the NCAA championships.

Ward has also improved the Black Knights in many ways in that time, most notably defeating Navy in his first season to snap a 17-year winless drought. He also took the Cadets from 33rd to 10th at the Southern Scuffle, a program-best 14th-place finish at the Las Vegas Cliff Keen Invitational in his second year and the first All-Academy Championship in eight years. He followed that up with another All-Academy Championship in 2016-17, documenting the first time Army has won consecu-tive titles at the tournament.

In 2016-17, Ward saw his most successful season on the banks of the Hudson to date. He guided Army to a 7-5 record in duals, including a thrilling 19-14 victory over service-academy Navy at Christl Arena. The historic victory made him the second coach in program history to defeat the Mids multiple times and the first to win two of his first three Star Matches. He also coached the Black Knights to their second-straight fourth-place finish at the EIWA Championships, marking the first time since the 1990-91, ‘91-92 seasons Army has posted back-to-back top-five finishes at the conference tournament.

During the 2015-16 season, Army posted a 3-7 record overall and placed fourth at the EIWA championships, the team’s highest finish at the tournament since the 2006-07 season. Ward led five Black Knights to the NCAA championships, the most for the program since 2008. Logan Everett (141), Parsons Jr. (157), Harvey (174), Samson Imonode (184) and Barnes (197) all represented the Academy at Madison Square Garden. Both Barnes and Harvey competed to second-place finishes at the EIWA championships.

In his first season at West Point, Ward led Army to a 3-6 record and sent four wrestlers to the NCAA championships. Russell Parsons Jr. (157), Cole Gracey (165), Brian Harvey (174) and Bryce Barnes (197) all represented the Academy in St. Louis, Mo. Both Parsons and Barnes placed fifth at the EIWA championships in Ward’s first year at the helm.

Ward, who turned a wrestling program built from scratch at Ouachita Baptist University into a national contender, was named Army’s 10th head wrestling coach on Aug. 1, 2014. As the first head coach of Ouachita Baptist’s wrestling program, Ward led the Tigers to top-15 finishes at the NCAA Tournament in each of the program’s first three seasons. Ward coached 10 All-Americans and two NCAA finalists, Dallas Smith and Josh Myers, during his time at Ouachita.

Ward was named the NCAA Division II Coach of the Year after guiding the Tigers to a fourth-place finish at the NCAAs and an 8-5 dual match record last season. Five of Ward’s wrestlers claimed All-America honors in 2014, including Myers, who was the national runner-up at the 141-pound weight class. After the program’s inaugural 2010-11 campaign, Ward coached three All-Americans and steered the Tigers to a 15th-place showing at the NCAA Tournament the following season. The program took another step forward during the 2012-13 season with its first-ever national runner-up in Smith, while the team placed 12th overall at the NCAAs.

Ward was also a major factor in fundraising for the wrestling squad. He helped raise more than $300,000 in donations to the up-and-coming program during his four-year stint. Over his first two months at Ouachita, Ward led the renovation effort of the team’s weight room, which hadn’t been updated in nearly 30 years.

An accomplished wrestler at Oklahoma State, Ward started his coaching career as a graduate assistant with the Cowboys during the 2006-07 season, while earning his master’s degree in health and human performance. He assisted legendary head coach John Smith with drill sessions and preparing the team for competitions, as well as coaching at open tournaments.

Oklahoma State posted a 14-5 overall record and took third place at the Big 12 Championships with Ward on staff. The Cowboys placed fifth at the NCAA Champion-ships and had four All-Americans, including two national runner-ups, Coleman Scott and Johny Hendricks.

As a member of one of the most storied programs in the country, Ward had a tremendous amount of success as a wrestler at Oklahoma State. Ward was on four NCAA National Championship teams (2003, 2004, 2005, 2006) and two undefeated squads (2002-03 and 2004-05). In 2005, Ward beat three opponents in a row to grab the Big 12 title at the 157-pound weight class. He won 12 of his first 14 matches that season and posted a 23-12 record overall. Ward returned to the conference champi-onship the following season, earning a runner-up finish.

Ward qualified for the NCAA Tournament twice and was a three-time National Wrestling Coaches Association (NWCA) Academic All-American. The Cowboys won four Big 12 championships in a row during Ward’s time in Stillwater. He graduated with a bachelor’s degree in sociology.

Along with his coaching duties over the years, Ward has served on the NWCA Executive Committee and Board of Directors, as well as handling the role of Vice President-elect of the Division II Coaches Association. Ward and his wife Hannah, along with their son Holt, reside at West Point.
