West Point braces for Hawaii’s air attack

WEST POINT, N.Y. — Hawaii plays Army at Michie Stadium on Saturday, and the Warriors are hoping jet lag doesn’t catch up to them once the game starts.

Hawaii landed in New Jersey on Wednesday after traveling a school-record 4,955 miles on the first leg of a 13-day trip. After Saturday’s game, the Warriors fly to Las Vegas for a week’s stay before playing at Colorado.

Head coach Greg McMackin says his Warriors are ready to go. Hawaii is coming off a 49-36 loss to 16th-ranked Southern Cal in its season-opener at home nine days ago.

Army and Hawaii have played only once before, in 2003, and it was a forgettable experience for the Black Knights. Timmy Chang threw for 356 yards and two touchdowns as Hawaii accumulated a school-record 741 yards on offense and won 59-28.
