About Bill Taylor
Expertise
I can answer questions about admissions to West Point; about the history of West Point; about how to travel to West Point, where to eat, where to stay, etc.; and about West Point`s alumni organization, the West Point Association of Graduates.

Experience
I am a 1970 Graduate of West Point. I served six years on active duty and another 8 years in the active reserve. I have been actively involved as a Field Admissions Representative for over 15 years and have participated on my Congressman's Academy Selection Panel for over 20 years. I am actively involved in West Point Alumni affairs, serving in roles both with the West Point Association of Graduates and the local alumni chapter in Annapolis, MD. I also have two sons who graduated from West Point in 1995 and 2001. Both are veterans of the Iraq war and continue to serve on Active Duty in the Army.

US Military Academy at West Point - football team-1946


Expert: Bill Taylor - 10/24/2009

Question
Can you give me the complete roster of the 1946 football team and their schedule ?

Answer
Hi, Jim, it's good to hear from you.  Thanks for your interest in West Point.  I apologize for the delayed response and I am slammed with travel and work.

I have access to the schedule and results part of your request, but not the roster.  Here's the scoop:

Army 1946 (9-0-1)
National Champions
Head Coach: Earl Blaik, USMA '20
Captains: Felix Blanchard, Jr., Glenn Davis

Sep 21   Villanova                  W 35   0
Sep 28   Oklahoma                   W 21   7
Oct 5    Cornell                    W 46  21
Oct 12   at Michigan                W 20  13
Oct 19   Columbia                   W 48  14

Blaik acclaimed "Coach of the Year"

As to the roster, I would suggest that you contact Brian Gunning (Asst. AD/Athletic Communications
(Football, Men's Basketball) 845-938-3303  brian.gunning@usma.edu).  He should be able to help you with that information or point you to someone who can.

Good luck in your quest, Jim.

Best Regards,

Bill Taylor
