THE LAST MEETING
The first matchup between Lafayette and Army this season was back on Jan. 22 in West Point, New York.
 
Junior Natalie Kucowski got the momentum going for the Leopards in the third quarter with a layup off an assist from sophomore Nicole Johnson. Junior Drew Freeland followed Kucowski's layup with a layup of her own and floated in a three-pointer right after that to bring the Leopards within one, 31-30.
 
Less than 30 second later senior Sarah Agnello gave the Leopards their first lead of the game, 32-31, on a layup off an assist by Kucowski.
 
Army retook the lead, 39-37 and pushed it out to 41-37 before Johnson came up big with a three to put Lafayette back in the lead heading into the final frame.
 
Two back-to-back fouls by the Black Knights put both Johnson and Kucowski at the charity stripe, both making both of their shots with 13 seconds left in the game to secure the win.
