West Point senior cadet Tyler Seymour scored career-highs with five points and four goals to lead the Black Knights to a 9-7 come-from-behind victory over Bucknell in the semifinals of the Patriot League Tournament at Michie Stadium on Friday night.

Army will battle Navy on Sunday at 3 p.m. for the Patriot League Championship and an automatic berth in the NCAA Tournament after Navy topped Lafayette on Friday night.

So, can Army take their biggest rivals for a second time this season on Sunday? Army fell to Navy in the 2005 Patriot League Tournament Championship game, 15-8, a year before also falling in the final game, 8-5, to the Mids in 2006. But things may be different in 2010 — Jeremy Boltus scored three goals and was named MVP when Army edged Navy earlier this season, 7-6.

The championship game should be a great afternoon at Michie, expect photos to follow!
