Army West Point yearling wrestler Ben Harvey advanced to the blood round, but fell one-win shy of All-America honors as the Black Knights' 2017-18 season came to a close on the second day of the NCAA Championships at Quicken Loans Arena on Saturday. Harvey, Lucas Weiland and Rocco Caywood all advanced to the second day of the national tournament before being eliminated in the consolation bracket. As a team, the Black Knights compiled an overall record 7-6 with Weiland earning the program's first bonus point victory at NCAAs since 2015 with a 9-1 major decision over #26 Andrew Shomers of Edinboro yesterday.
