ARMY'S BLACK LION
AWARD The Black Lion Award plaque,
presented to the United States Military Academy in 2004 by
the Army Football Club, occupies a position of prominence in
the Army football locker room, with the names of Army's
Black Lion Award recipients engraved on it for all West
Point football players, present and future, to see - before
and after every practice and game. The first West Point
football player to be honored as the Black Lion Award winner
was defensive end Will Sullivan, from Atlanta, Georgia, in
2004. In 2005 the Black Lion Award was presented to running
back-return man Scott Wesley, from Pine Bluff, Arkansas, and
the 2006 Army Black Lion Award was presented Mike Viti, of
Berwick, Pennsylvania.
