My pleasure. I am always stoked to report on Army guys putting the leather to the Navy and Marine Corps...

This is one of those things I'd like to watch if anybody knows if it's on YouTube or something like that......

Congrats to Army. How many schools even offer boxing? I would have signed up if my school had it.

Not a ton. All of the service Academies and maybe 25 others. The NCAA dropped boxing in 1960 because it was "too dangerous" and there was no collegiate boxing again until 76' when the NCBA was formed. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/National_Collegiate_Boxing_Association
