NAVY FOOTBALL - 2010-01-02 09:44:11
BIG WIN....the entire NAVY football program is cranking on all cylinders. From ticket sales, facilities, on field performance, community support, alumni support, quality wins over big name programs. To perform and win shows the size and power of mind and heart To be outsized and outmanned almost every week and to still win over larger, more skilled and better programs just shows what character these guys and this program has It can go on and on, what a great thing. My vote for man of the year is CHET. It starts at the top. Chet i would like to thank you for what you have done for not only NAVY fottball but the bond you have created between USNA and ANNAPOLIS through providing great sports programs for us to enjoy....thank you.........

I was there to witness this great win. Congratulations to everyone associated with Navy football. A tremendous effort by all the players, and a great game plan by the coaching staff. Even Captain Klunder got into the act by doing push-ups with the plebes and marines. What a great day for Navy!!!
