Navy still winning most battles with Army on the recruiting trail

Army owns bragging rights over Navy on the football field, but apparently that has not automatically translated to the recruiting landscape.

The Black Knights boast a three-game winning streak against the Midshipmen and have captured the coveted Commander-in-Chief’s Trophy two years in a row.

Army posted the first 11-win season in program history in 2018 and is 21-5 over the past two seasons. Meanwhile, Navy is coming of its worst season since 2001, having struggled to a 3-10 mark. The Midshipmen are 5-16 since mid-October of 2017.

One would think the competitive disparity would give Army a huge advantage in the head-to-head recruiting battles between the two service academy rivals.
