WASHINGTON, D.C. – It’s been a long time since Navy men’s basketball won a Patriot League Tournament quarterfinal away from home.
One would have to go all the way back to 1995 when Navy knocked off Lehigh on a neutral court at Christl Arena in West Point.
An inspired Evan Wieck combined with a stifling zone defense were the keys as the Midshipmen exorcised that ghost in a big way on Wednesday night in northwest D.C.
Wieck posted up strong and finished around the basket in scoring 18 points while a matchup zone flustered the home team as fifth-seeded Navy knocked off No.
