The Naval Academy is located in historic Annapolis, the capital of the State of Maryland. Annapolis was founded in 1640 as Anne Arundel Town and later became the first peacetime capital city of the United States of America in 1783. Annapolis, named to honor Queen Anne of England, was granted a royal charter as a city in 1708. Annapolis can also lay claim to having been a capital of the United States. From November 1783 to August 1784, the Continental Congress met in the State House. It was here that they accepted George Washington’s resignation as commander-in-chief and ratified the Treaty of Paris, which ended the Revolutionary War.

The colonial heritage of Annapolis is still evident as the city boasts more buildings from the 1700s than any other city in the country. The heart of downtown Annapolis has also been designated a National Historic District. Many fine examples of colonial architecture, including the State House, Hammond-Harwood House, Chase-Lloyd House and the William Paca House and Gardens, are open to visitors. In August, 2009, Annapolis was named a Top Ten finalist for the International Award for Livable Communities, a competition focused on creating livable communities through sound environmental practices.
Annapolis is located on the western shore of the Chesapeake Bay, the largest estuary in the United States. The Chesapeake provides natural environs, sightseeing, sailing, fishing and more, helping Annapolis become the sailing capital of the world. The water-lover will also revel in the fact that Maryland has nearly 4,000 miles of shoreline – more than any other state. Within 30 minutes of Annapolis lies both Washington, D.C., and Baltimore, providing entertainment and sightseeing opportunities for residents and tourists alike.

C r a i g Dawson was able to fulfill a lifelong dream in March of 2000 when the 1973 graduate of the Naval Academy was handed over the reigns to direct the
Navy squash program. “Having gone to school here with second-tonone facilities, it is a true honor to come back and be the head coach,” said Dawson. The Navy squash program has flourished under Dawson’s direction. In fact, Navy has reached 15 wins in each of Dawson’s 10 seasons as head coach. Additionally, the Navy squash program has enjoyed just six 20-win seasons over the course of its 62-year history with Dawson-led teams conquering the 20-win plateau four times. Navy broke the school record for wins by turning in a 27-8 record in 2008-09 and followed up with a 26-8 record last season. The Midshipmen opened up the 2009-10 campaign by winning 12 of their first 13 matches, setting themselves up for an all-around solid season. The Mids put together another winning streak heading into the CSA Team Championship, winning 10 of 12 before placing 13th at the championship and winning two of their three matches. By season’s end, Navy came up just one win shy of tying the program record for wins it set just one season prior. The 26-8 Midshipmen were a blend of stout senior leadership and youthful energy that saw four plebes in the lineup by year’s end. 2009-10 team captain Nils Mattsson left his mark on the program by earning All-America honors in his senior campaign and finishing with a No. 22 national ranking. Additionally, he concluded his career with a 92-32 record, Navy’s winningest player under Dawson’s direction. The team’s success in 2008-09 was also a great reflection of the individual accomplishments the Mids achieved, as well. In fact, eight of the nine players among the ladder finished the season with at least 20 wins, including Allan Lutz, who paced the team with a 27-9 record and was one of two players to represent Navy at the CSA Individual Championship. Lutz, who finished the year ranked 83rd, was joined by Mattsson at the CSA Individual Championship. Mattsson was Navy’s No. 1 player a year ago, finishing the season with a 25-7 record and was ranked No. 39 in the country. The 2007-08 campaign was highlighted by several individual and team accomplishments. Despite battling a foot injury for much of the early part of calendar year, 2008 graduate Tucker George, the program’s only four-time winner of the Barb Trophy, was selected as Navy’s first All-American since Jamie Slough in 1994. Fellow senior and team captain Jeff Sawin graduated as the winningest player under Dawson’s leadership with a spectacular
89-30 (.748) record which featured a team-best 23-6 record in 2007-08. DAWSON’S NAVY COACHING LEDGER Allan Lutz, meanwhile, made an immeRecord Pct.

A long-standing tradition at the Naval Academy is its yearly squash competition that features approximately 20 alumni battling the current edition of Navy squash players. In recent years, alumni have been represented as far back as the 50s with Peyton Wise (‘53) and Bud Parker (‘55), picking up their rackets and giving the newcomers a run for their money. A day that is meant to share old memories and create new ones is concluded with the winner of the match having its name etched onto The Bowen Cup. The match is played in memory of its namesake, Vice Adm. Harold G. Bowen Jr., who was a member of the Class of 1933. Prior to the alumni match in 2003, four new courts were dedicated in Halsey Field House, while in 2007 an additional two ASB glass exhibiton courts with spectator seating were erected to complete the 1.3 million dollar Halsey International Squash Courts Complex. The new building, designed just for squash, gives Navy the two best squash courts in the country. Combined with the addition of new air conditioning to the four exisiting courts and the complete renovation of the locker room, the Halsey International Squash Courts Complex gives Navy a six-court facility second to none. Including the additional six international courts in Bancroft Hall, Navy now has 12 courts in use for its varsity, junior varsity,and intramural program, as well as physical education classes. With the additional courts, the Naval Academy was chosen as the host of the 2008 College Squash Association Men’s and Women’s National Individual Championship. The Academy served as gracious hosts of the tournament and showed a great deal of commitment and support for the sport. More than 2,000 members of the Brigade of Midshipmen poured into Halsey Field House to cheer on Tucker George in the opening round of the tournament, setting the CSA’s attendance mark at 2,329. Construction of these courts was the result of an ongoing fund-raising effort by the Naval Academy Foundation and the Friends of Navy Squash with the support of former Superintendent Vice Adm. Rodney Rempt and the Naval Academy Athletic Association (NAAA).

The USS Barb Squash Racquets Perpetual Trophy has been awarded since 1958 with 34 different midshipmen winning the weeklong, round-robin tournament. Thirteen of the 34 have been multi-year winners, including Tucker George who became the first player in program history to win the trophy all four years. Additionally, three-time winners include All-Americans Spencer Wall and Jamie Slough, along with Andy McCann. The trophy was established by Medal of Honor recipient Rear Adm. Eugene B. Fluckey, a World War II submarine commander, who patrolled the Pacific Ocean in the USS Barb that sank more tonnage of enemy ships than any U.S. commander. A member of the Naval Academy Class of 1935, Adm. Fluckey died on June 28, 2007, at the age of 93. He was laid to rest at the Naval Academy Columbarium on Aug. 28, 2007. Adm. Fluckey was known as a fearless leader, who once landed some of his crew members on mainland Japan, where they blew up an enemy troop transport train. Another time, he mounted rockets to the deck of his submarine and attacked a Japanese settlement. He made five war patrols in the Pacific Ocean aboard the sub the Barb. Earlier this year, Carl LaVo published "The Galloping Ghost," a biography of Adm. Fluckey. The book's title came from a nickname the Japanese had for Adm. Fluckey - the "ghost," who would show up, wreak havoc and then vanish. Adm. Fluckey was also known for his love and respect for his crew. One such example included using the proceeds from “Thunder Below!”, a book he penned, to take his former crew on a cruise to Alaska, as well as a Mississippi River cruise. In addition to receiving the Medal of Honor, Adm. Fluckey held four Navy Crosses and was considered the most decorated living American at the time of his death. He also served as a leader of NATO in Europe. Assigned to the Naval Academy in the 1950s, Adm. Fluckey helped raise money from private contributors to build Navy-Marine Corps Memorial Stadium.

THE COLLEGE SQUASH ASSOCIATION
First awarded in 1981, the NISRA Coaches Award is presented annually to that team which has best exemplified the ideals of sportsmanship in squash. Navy, who has won the award more than any other school in the league, has received the award six times — 1985, '87, '96, '98, '02 and 2004. Yale has been the recipient of the award the secondmost times, claiming the plaque four times. One of those member coaches who nominated Navy for this prestigious award in 2004 was Pennsylvania head coach Craig Thorpe-Clark. “In particular, Navy had quite a few new players this season and Coach Dawson instilled the same values as in some of the past teams,” said ThorpeClark. “Those values are synonymous with Navy teams. Regardless of their talent level in any given season, they play hard and do their very best to win. “It’s easy to be gracious when your winning, but it’s not always easy to have that same attitude when The Navy squash team was the 2004 receipient of the NISRA Coaches Award. you are on the other side. I’ve always found Navy’s players to handle themselves the same, win or lose. That’s a hallmark of Navy.” Not only is the award based upon a team’s attitude and gamesmanship, a unique facet of the game of squash is how the game is officiated. College squash is the only intercollegiate sport where the players serve as the referees. Often a player is required to make a call against a teammate. In a sport where everyone is expected to play by the rules, Navy is considered to be one of the most ethical and fair teams. “Across the board, the Navy players are prepared to call a match properly and fairly,” pointed out Thorpe-Clark. While Thorpe-Clark praised the Midshipmen, he added his respect for Navy head coach Craig Dawson. “Coach Dawson should be commended in the job he has done at Navy,” remarked Thorpe-Clark. “He is extremely professional with the opposing players and coaches. I have been a coach for nine years in the United States and I have a great deal of respect for Craig as a friend and mentor.”

Securing tickets to Army-Navy, Notre Dame and Maryland is as easy as A ... B ... C ... Assure yourself tickets to the biggest games of the year. Navy opens the season in September against Maryland at M&T Bank Stadium in Baltimore and plays host to Notre Dame on October 23 at the New Meadowlands Stadium. The Army-Navy football game is December 11 at Lincoln Financial Field in Philadelphia, Pa.
Therefore, the Blue & Gold memberships are critical in providing our teams with the supplemental dollars necessary to close the “resource gap” between the Naval Academy teams and our Division I competition. Your support is critical to our continued success.
Membership in the Blue & Gold contributes to 118 years of supporting the Brigade of Midshipmen and is the Margin of Athletic Excellence funding for all 32 teams!
Becoming a Blue & Gold member is the best way to secure tickets to the games. Season ticket holders that are Blue & Gold members receive top priority when it comes to location of seats. Club Level seats are assured to Admiral’s Row members of the Blue & Gold. Admiral’s Row members are the only ones assured of receiving Club Seats, and each member at this level is entitled to purchase four (4) Club Level seats to the game.
TAX INFORMATION Since your membership includes an option to purchase tickets, 80 percent of your membership is tax deductible. Only the individual paying for the membership is eligible to take the tax deduction. The Blue & Gold members will receive a receipt for tax purposes at the end of the year.

As the undergraduate college of the Naval service, the Naval Academy prepares young men and women to become professional officers in the U.S. Navy and Marine Corps. Naval Academy students are midshipmen on active duty in the U.S. Navy. They attend the academy for four years, graduating with bachelor of science degrees and reserve commissions as ensigns in the Navy or second lieutenants in the Marine Corps. Naval Academy graduates serve at least five years as Navy or Marine Corps officers.
Founded in 1845 by Secretary of the Navy George Bancroft, the Academy started as the Naval School on 10 acres of old Fort Severn in Annapolis with an original class of 55. In 1850 the Naval School became the United States Naval Academy. A new curriculum went into effect requiring midshipmen to study at the Academy for four years and to train aboard ships each summer. Congress authorized the Naval Academy to begin awarding bachelor of science degrees in 1933. Today, the Academy offers 18 major fields of study, a wide variety of elective courses and advanced study and research opportunities. USNA MISSION STATEMENT “To develop midshipmen morally, mentally and physically and to imbue them with the highest ideals of duty, honor and loyalty in order to graduate leaders who are dedicated to a career of naval service and have potential for future deployment in mind and character to assume the highest responsiblities of command, citizenship and government.�

FIRST-RATE FACULTY & STAFF The Naval Academy's philosophy of education stresses attention to individual students by highly qualified faculty members who are strongly committed to teaching. Classes are small, with an average size of fewer than 18 students and a student-faculty ratio of 8:1. All courses at the Naval Academy are taught and graded by faculty members, not by graduate assistants.
Women’s soccer’s Shelley Moeller (‘10) was a Third-Team Academic All-America honoree in 2009. Moeller was also a member of the Navy’s women’s lacrosse team.
Our 600-member faculty is an integrated group of officers and civilians in nearly equal numbers. Officers bring fresh ideas and experiences from operational units and staffs of the Navy and Marine Corps. The academy's civilian faculty members give continuity to the educational program and form a core of professional scholarship and teaching experience. Working together closely, these military and civilian faculty member form one of the strongest and most dedicated teaching faculties of any college or university in the United States.
MAJORS Students at the Naval Academy can select one of 53 different majors within 22 fields of study. The 22 fields of study are grouped into three different divisions: Division of Engineering and Weapons (aerospace engineering, computer engineering, electrical engineering, general engineering, mechanical engineering, Naval architecture, ocean engineering), Division of Math and Science (chemistry, computer science, general science, information technology, mathematics, oceanography, physics) and the Division of Humanities and Social Science (Arabic, Chinese, economics, English, history, political science, quantitative economics). In addition to graduating with a Bachelor’s of Science, students can attain a minor in one of seven different languages.
Beth Reed (‘10) was a First-Team Academic All-America selection for women’s soccer. Reed also played for the Navy women’s basketball team.
Students who excel at the Naval Academy have many opportunities to challenge and advance themselves through several special programs -- Trident Scholars, Honors Programs, and Voluntary Graduate Education Program (VGEP). Track and field athletes Kayla Sax and Tyrell Arment were part of the 10-member Trident Scholar program’s Class of 2010.
SCHOLARSHIP WINNERS In addition to furthering their education at schools across the country, students at the Naval Academy annually are in competition for several prestigious scholarships. Since Navy's first Rhodes Scholar, E. Van Meter ('28), a total of 45 Naval Academy graduates have received the Rhodes Scholarship, including 12 since 2001. Among Navy's most recent recipients is former baseball player Trevor Thompson ('05). 24 grads have won George C. Marshall Scholarships, including 14 since 2000. Standout swimmer Kelly Zahalka ('09) was a recipient of both the Harry S. Truman and Gen. George C. Marshall Scholarships, which paved the way for her to study for two years in the United Kingdom.
Kayla Sax (‘10) was a recipient of the Gates Cambridge Scholarship, becoming the ninth honoree from the Naval Academy.

recipient of an NCAA Postgraduate Scholarship and will pursue a graduate degree beginning the 2010-11 academic year.
GRADUATION SUCCESS RATE For the fifth year in a row, the United States Naval Academy is at the head of the class for graduating NCAA student-athletes on the Division IA level. Navy graduated 100 percent of its student-athletes in 10 of the 20 NCAA sports reported on and averaged an overall rate of 98 percent for student-athletes in all sports – the second-highest mark nationally among Football Bowl Subdivision schools. LOWE’S SENIOR CLASS AWARD Navy has been well represented in the nomination process for the Lowe’s Senior CLASS Award, started in 2001 by Dick Enberg in response to the growing trend of men's basketball players leaving school early for the NBA. The award honors the attributes of senior student-athletes in four areas: classroom, community, character and competition. Navy has produced four first-team honorees in their respective sports over the last four years, highlighted by 2008 grad Evan Barnes, who was men’s soccer’s inaugural award winner in 2007. He, women’s basketball player Kate Hobbs ('07), women's soccer's Lizzie Barnes ('08) and men’s lacrosse’s Andy Tormey (‘09) each were named to the Lowe's Senior All-America First Team.
Kelly Zahalka (‘09) was a recipient of both the Harry S. Truman and Gen. George C. Marshall scholarships.

The men and women at the United States Naval Academy have committed themselves to the service of our country. During their four years in Annapolis, they also take part in service for the community. From outreach opportunities such as autograph sessions following athletic events to working with underpriveleged youth, the student-athletes at Navy give back to the area they call home during their college years. The following are a few examples of community service opportunities performed by the men and women of Navy athletics during the 2009-10 academic year. BASEBALL The baseball team adopted a local child with a brain tumor through the Friends of Jaclyn Organization. The child became a fixture at Navy’s home baseball games and the team has taken an active role in his and his family’s lives. The team presented them with an autographed baseball by the team, visited their house, attended his concert and sister’s swimming meet, spoken with him numerous times – especially after doctor’s appointments – and have helped him with his homework assignments. MEN’S BASKETBALL The men’s basketball team served as the host to a Navy Youth Center birthday party on the main court in Halsey Field House. FOOTBALL Quarterback Ricky Dobbs visited the Naval Academy Primary School and spoke to the firstgrade classroom, explaining the importance of doing the best in their studies and following their dreams. Dobbs had the students try on his football helmet and signed autographs for each of the children before going to visit both of the fourth-grade classrooms.
While in Houston for the Texas Bowl, the football team and the cheerleaders visited the children at the DePelchin Children’s Center. DePelchin was founded in 1892 by Kezia Payne DePelchin to shelter orphaned children. It was originally named the Faith Home, because Mrs. DePelchin had faith in the wonderful business leaders of Houston to support her cause. Although she died within a year, the community leaders, touched by her passion and mission, became united in their determination to carry on her work. Today, services are provided in over 60 locations in six counties in the southeastern part of Texas.

OFFSHORE SAILING Members of the varsity offshore sailing team instructed several members of the JROTC maritime training program in Chicago.
WOMEN’S SOCCER The women’s soccer team held one of many “Meet the Mids” autograph sessions following a game last fall. All fans attending a “Meet the Mids” event are given a free poster for autographs, as well as an opportunity to take photos and converse with their favorite Navy studentathletes.
SWIMMING & DIVING The swimming & diving teams offered free learn-to-swim lessons to anyone in Lejeune Hall during the spring.
MEN’S TENNIS The men’s tennis team made its annual visit to the MaliVai Washington Kids Foundation, which provides an athletic and educational after school outlet for youths in the Jacksonville, Fla., area. The Mids first participated in a question-and-answer session with the youths before heading out to the tennis courts for some instruction and competition. A tradition on Navy's visits, each time a youth defeats a Mid, that Navy player has to immediately perform 10 push-ups.

Now in his 10th year as Director of Athletics, Chet Gladchuk has overseen a renaissance of the Naval Academy athletic program. His administrative leadership has helped lead the program to one of the most successful periods in school history. The 2009-10 season was a successful one for the Midshipmen as Navy won 63 percent of its contests, defeated Army in the star competition for the 13th consecutive year and won the overall series against Army for the 17th time in the last 18 years. Navy produced 14 All-Americans, 13 conference athletes of the year, seven conference coaches of the year and seven conference championships. Navy also excelled in the classroom in 200910, ranking No. 2 in the country in graduation rate for student-athletes (among Football Bowl Subdivision schools) and all 24 of Navy’s NCAA sponsored varsity sports rank above the national average in the Academic Progress report, including five teams with perfect scores. Navy had eight Academic All-Americans and five Patriot League Scholar Athletes of the Year, while 176 student-athletes were named to the Patriot League Academic Honor Roll. Beth Reed (women’s soccer and basketball) and Mark Van Orden (Track & Field) won NCAA Postgraduate Scholarships, while Kayla Sax (women’s cross country and track & field) won Gates, Cambridge and Trident scholarships. Seven of the top 15 Naval Academy graduates in the class of 2010 were involved with varsity athletics, while 40 of the top 100 graduates were involved with either varsity or club sports. One of the more successful programs this past season was the football team, which won a school-record tying 10 games against four losses, won the Commander-In-Chief’s Trophy for a school-record seventh-consecutive year and participated in a bowl game for a record seventh-straight year. The Mids ran their winning streak at South Bend to two with a 23-21 upset of the 19thranked Irish and dominated Missouri, 35-13, in the Texas Bowl. Other teams who flourished in 2009-10 included the water polo team finishing the season ranked 15th in the Collegiate Water Polo Association top 20, the rifle team finished eighth at the NCAA Championship, the wrestling team placed 46th at the NCAA Championship, the intercollegiate sailing team matched its finish from a year ago at the ICSA Coed Dinghy Nationals with a seventh-place finish and placed sixth at the ICSA Team Race Nationals, the men’s tennis team advanced to the NCAA Championship for a fourth-straight year, the women’s lacrosse team advanced to the NCAA Tournament for the first time in program history and finished the year ranked 19th in the country and the lightweight crew team finished second at the IRA National Championship. Gladchuk’s efforts have been recognized on a national level as well, as the Division IA Athletic Directors Association named him the 2005 Bobby Dodd Athletic Director of the Year. The award is presented in recognition of an athletic director’s support and commitment toward the successful advancement of the department, most specifically in the sport of football. Additionally, he was recognized by the Secretary of the Navy for his contributions and service to the Navy and the Naval Academy with the Superior Public Service Award to the Department of the Navy. Gladchuk has been able to parlay Navy’s athletic success into an exclusive television deal with CBS College Sports Network that has increased Navy’s television exposure both in the United States and internationally. CBS College Sports Network, the first 24-hour college sports network, televises every Navy home and select neutral site football games (excluding Notre Dame and Army which are televised nationally by CBS), as well as other Midshipmen men's and women's athletic events, original programming and documentaries
centered on the storied Navy athletic program. The long-term, multi-media agreement includes internet streaming, broadband and video-ondemand rights and high definition rights. A major part of the agreement was that all home football games would be played on Saturday for the convenience of the Navy alumni. Navy sports are seen all over the world with the international distribution of Navy programming, especially to the troops serving abroad. Navy’s contract with CBS College Sports Network runs through 2018. Gladchuk has also added radio giants WBAL (1090 AM) in Baltimore and WFED (1500 AM, 1050 AM, 820 AM) in Washington D.C./Northern Virginia to Navy’s radio network. WBAL Radio, which is also the home of the Ravens, is Maryland's dominant and most powerful radio station. Since 1925, generations of Marylanders have turned to WBAL Radio for news, weather, thought-provoking discussions and sports. As Maryland's only 50,000-watt AM station, WBAL's signal travels substantially further than any other station in the state. WFED Radio, which is also the home of the Washington Nationals, is a 50,000-watt station that will air a minimum of 10 regular-season football games. WFED is your source for federal news covering both the Federal Government and those who do business with the government. Since being introduced as the Academy's 28th Director of Athletics on Sept. 4, 2001, Gladchuk has pressed forward on numerous fronts with energy and vision. From the hiring of Paul Johnson and Ken Niumatalolo as head football coaches to the renovation of Navy-Marine Corps Memorial Stadium, Gladchuk has made improvements in several key areas that will prove more success on the athletic fields for years to come. Recent head coaching hires such as Bill Roberts in men’s swimming, John Morrison in women’s swimming, Paul Kostacopoulos in baseball, Keith Puryear in women’s tennis, the all-time winningest women’s lacrosse coach in NCAA history, Cindy Timchal, and the all-time winningest soccer coach in NCAA history on any level, Dave Brandt, have advanced those programs into the national limelight. During Gladchuk’s tenure at the Naval Academy, he has seen the Midshipmen win 64 conference titles, produce 128 All-Americans and 44 Academic All-Americans. Gladchuk has also worked tirelessly to bring back school spirit, working in conjunction with school officials to encourage midshipmen to attend events for all sports. He has embraced the local community and alumni base, and is an oftenrequested speaker, visiting areas all over the country as he shares the vision of the Naval Academy and the Naval Academy Athletic Association. Gladchuk’s biggest impact on the Naval Academy has been the $42 million renovation of Navy-Marine Corps Memorial Stadium where under his leadership the stadium was completely refurbished over a four-year time frame. The addition of 6,500 permanent seats on the sidelines and in the end zones, 32 luxury boxes, dropping the field eight feet and moving the sidelines closer, two video scoreboards, a memorial plaza, upgraded restroom and concession areas, a perimeter walking path, new lighting, a new sound system, landscaping the grounds and storm water management highlight the list of renovations. Gladchuk has worked closely with the city, county, state and neighborhood associations to ensure proper communication and sensitivity to issues that benefit both the NAAA and community at large. The NAAA was awarded the Green Star award by Annapolis Mayor Ellen Moyer for commitment to the environment during the ongoing renovation of Navy-Marine Corps Memorial Stadium.

Gladchuk and the NAAA have also teamed up with the Naval Academy Foundation to raise over $75 million in private giving for facilities such as the Brigade Sports Complex (hockey and tennis), Max Bishop Stadium (baseball), varsity squash courts, various team locker rooms and a number of practice facilities. Other highlights of Gladchuk’s tenure at the Naval Academy include the recent renegotiation of the Army-Navy contract which resulted in over $46 million to the two schools over the next eight years, scheduling Maryland, Notre Dame, Ohio State and Army at M&T Bank Stadium in Baltimore to promote Navy football in the community, negotiating the extension of the Navy-Notre Dame football game television contract with CBS through 2018 and negotiating bowl deals with the Houston, Emerald, Poinsettia, Meineke Car Care, EagleBank, Texas and Armed Forces Bowls. Gladchuk is heavily involved with NCAA and Patriot League committees. He recently was selected to serve on the NCAA Leadership Council, which is one of the highest NCAA appointments an athletic director can realize. The council will help set the Division I legislative agenda and advises the NCAA regarding major legislative issues being considered. The primary responsibility of the council is to identify those issues on the horizon that can impact Division I and intercollegiate athletics as a whole and will spend much of its time planning for the future of Division I and will help set the course for the future. Gladchuk is also on the NACDA (National Association of Collegiate Athletic Directors) Executive Committee and has served as the Chairman of the Executive Committee in the Patriot League and a member of the NCAA Olympic Sport Liaison Committee. Gladchuk came to the Naval Academy from the University of Houston, where he had been the Director of Athletics since July 18, 1997. Recognized as one of the nation’s top leaders in intercollegiate athletics management, he guided the Cougars to 19 Conference USA Championships, while making significant strides in the academic success of their student-athletes, gender equity and fiscal management. Before Houston, Gladchuk was the Director of Intercollegiate Athletics, Intramurals and Recreation for seven years at his alma mater, Boston College. Under Gladchuk, Boston College emerged as one of the NCAA’s elite programs of the 1990s winning numerous Big East and NCAA Championships. The school’s graduation rate for all student-athletes was over 90 percent and the Eagles won the College Football Association’s Academic Achievement Award for the highest graduation rates among all Division I schools in three of his last five years at Boston College. Gladchuk led the Alumni Stadium expansion effort, which resulted in a $35 million improvement to the football stadium. Prior to rejoining Boston College, Gladchuk served as AD at Tulane University from 1987-90. During his tenure, he directed the reinstatement of the Green Wave basketball program to Division I status. In addition, he oversaw the construction of new facilities for the athletics administration as well as baseball, track and field and tennis teams after a $25 million athletics campaign was successfully completed. From 1985-87, he served as Associate AD at Syracuse University, heading operations, NCAA compliance, financial aid and facility operations. Gladchuk lettered in football at Boston College and graduated with honors in business management in 1973. He earned a master’s in sports administration from the University of Massachusetts-Amherst in 1974, where he began his career in intercollegiate athletics, including serving for seven years as Director of General Physical Education, Assistant and Associate Athletic Director for the university. He also has served as Director of Athletics and head football coach for the New Hampton (Prep) School in New Hampshire prior to leaving for UMass. He and his wife, Kathy, have four children: John, a graduate of Loyola Marymount; Katie, a graduate of Boston College; Christie, a graduate of Trinity and Julie, a graduate of the University of North Carolina.

The Naval Academy is located in historic Annapolis, the capital of the State of Maryland. Annapolis was founded in 1640 as Anne Arundel Town and later became the first peacetime capital city of the United States of America in 1783. Annapolis, named to honor Queen Anne of England, was granted a royal charter as a city in 1708. Annapolis can also lay claim to having been a capital of the United States. From November 1783 to August 1784, the Continental Congress met in the State House. It was here that they accepted George Washington’s resignation as commander-in-chief and ratified the Treaty of Paris, which ended the Revolutionary War.
