CROSS RIVER - It's been a week to remember for Arlington volleyball. On Saturday, the Admirals broke a drought for the program, winning the school's first Section 1 Class AAA championship in 15 years in dramatic fashion.

Army coach Jeff Monken sees good, bad in football playoff expansion

The shift of the Army-Navy football game a week earlier starting next season came as no surprise to Army head coach Jeff Moken, but will that always be the case? "I'm just curious to see how it goes as we move forward,'' Monken said on Tuesday. An expanded College Football Playoff made it necessary to move the Army-Navy Game back to its long-established home on the first weekend of December, giving the new 24-team field a longer runway to start. The 2027 Army-Navy Game will be contested on Saturday, December 4, allowing the CFP to begin play as early as Thursday, December 9. "We appreciate the opportunity to have a standalone date for (our Navy game),'' Monken said. "It's a great game. It's a tremendous rivalry. It means a lot to college football in our country.'' If the last few years of sweeping change in college football is any indication, though, there's no telling what will happen with the late-season and bowl schedules, even in the face of time-honored tradition. A relative new addition in the 157-year history of college football, it appears the college conference championship games are going to become a thing of the past, at least for
