Army players hopped and waved hands in celebration during a replay timeout and got the cadets in the stands to bounce along. They had good reason to celebrate: Army has regained its footing in a rivalry in which Navy had a series-best 14-game winning streak from 2002 to 2015. “It’s been hard on all of us: our players, our coaches, our staff, our school,” Navy Coach Ken Niumatalolo said. But Army and Navy tried to throw more often this time, with mixed results. Last season’s game was an instant classic: Bennett Moehring narrowly missed a 48-yard try in the snow on the final play and Army held off Navy, 14-13.
