THE FIELD OF THE 2016 VETERANS CLASSIC The third annual Veterans Classic presented by Northwestern Mutual will feature Vanderbilt vs. Marquette at 6:30 PM and Ohio State at Navy at 9:00 PM in Alumni Hall. This year’s Classic will be played on Veterans Day.

Roberson is also back after averaging 9.3 points in 2015-16. Vanderbilt follows Tennessee and Florida as the third SEC program to compete in the Veterans Classic.

Marquette Golden Eagles Third-year head coach Steve Wojciechowski will bring his Marquette Golden Eagles to play in the opening game of the 2016 Veterans Classic. Wojciechowski grew up in nearby Severna Park and played high school basketball at Cardinal Gibbons in Baltimore. The Veterans Classic will mark Wojciechowski’s first game as a head coach in his home state of Maryland. Marquette will be without the services of Henry Ellenson, who was drafted in the first round by the Detroit Pistons after averaging 17.0 points and 9.7 rebounds as a freshman last season. Senior center Luke Fischer is Marquette’s leading returning scorer (12.1 ppg) and sophomore guard Haanif Cheatham returns after averaging 11.8 points. Sophomore guard Traci Carter dished out 4.6 assists per game last year. High-scoring guard Andrew Rowsey is eligible after sitting out the 201516 season after transferring into the program. A former standout at UNC Asheville, Rowsey averaged 20.3 points as a freshman and 19.2 points as a sophomore. The Golden Eagles were 20-13 overall in 2015-16 and 8-10 in the Big East.

Navy Midshipmen Head coach Ed DeChellis increased Navy’s overall win total for the fourth straight year in 2015-16 with an overall record of 19-14. The 19 wins was Navy’s highest win total in seven years and the Mids also set a program record for most road wins in a season with 11. Navy graduated two All-Patriot League performers last spring in center Will Kelly and point guard Tilman Dunbar. Kelly was named the Patriot League Defensive Player of the Year and was also selected to the all-league second team and the all-defensive team. Dunbar was named to the All-Patriot League Third Team. Navy returns two starters in juniors Shawn Anderson and Tom Lacey. Anderson led the team in scoring with 13.2 points per game last season. Navy returns two 3-point specialists in seniors Zach Fong and Tim Abruzzo, while senior center Edward Alade has seen action in 88 career games. Navy’s defensive efforts were a key to the team’s success last season, as the Mids led the Patriot League in scoring defense (64.7) and field goal percentage defense (.413). Ohio State Buckeyes After a trip to the NIT broke a run of seven-straight NCAA Tournament appearances last spring, 13th-year head coach Thad Matta is expecting a bounce-back season for the Buckeyes in 2016-17. Ohio State returns all five starters and its six top scorers from a team that was 21-14 overall and 11-7 in the Big Ten last year. Senior forward Marc Loving leads four returners who averaged doubledigits with a team-best 14.0 points per game and junior forward Keita BatesDiop was second on the team with 11.8 points per game and 6.4 rebounds. Junior forward Jae’Sean Tate averaged 11.7 points and 6.4 rebounds, while sophomore guard JaQuan Lyle averaged 11.2 points and 4.2 assists. Junior guard Kam Williams scored 8.3 points per game while shooting 44 percent on 3-pointers and junior center Trevor Thompson averaged 6.5 points and 5.1 rebounds.

Vanderbilt Commodores Bryce Drew enters his first season at Vanderbilt after spending the past five years as the head coach of Valparaiso. While at Valparaiso, Drew amassed a 124-49 coaching record and a .717 winning percentage. Drew takes over a Vanderbilt program that was 19-14 last season and 11-7 in the SEC. Vanderbilt lost to Wichita State in the NCAA First Four last March. Vanderbilt had two players chosen in the first round of the NBA Draft after leaving school early last year. Wade Baldwin IV was chosen by the Memphis Grizzlies and Damian Jones was drafted by the Golden State Warriors. Junior guard Matthew Fisher-Davis is the team’s leading returning scorer (9.7) and 3-pointer shooter (45 pct.). Senior center Luke Kornet returns after averaging 8.9 points, 7.3 rebounds and 3.0 blocks and junior forward Jeff

VETERANS CLASSIC – GAME RECAPS 2014

2015

#15 VCU 85, Tennessee 69 In the opening game of the inaugural Veterans Classic, No. 15 VCU defeated Tennessee, 85-69, at Navy’s Alumni Hall. VCU built an 18-point halftime lead and Melvin Johnson scored a game-high 23 points. Teammate Treveon Graham registered his 11th career double-double with 15 points and 14 rebounds. After falling behind 55-35 with 16:44 remaining, Tennessee closed to 67-59 but could not complete the comeback. Josh Richardson and Detrick Mostella each scored 17 for Tennessee, playing its first game under coach Donnie Tyndall. The Volunteers had 19 turnovers, yielded 23 offensive rebounds and were outscored 24-17 at the line. Johnson had 20 of the Rams’ first 36 points. Even though he played only 13 minutes in the first half, he still had time to take 10 shots, get two steals and pick up an assist. “It’s been a phenomenal experience,’’ said VCU head coach Shaka Smart. “It gave our coaches and players a real appreciation of what goes on here. This was a first-class event; the people at the Naval Academy did a phenomenal job. For any team that has the opportunity, they need to get here.’’ Before the game, the Vols wore warm-up shirts with ‘’McKAMEY’’ on the back and ‘’I WILL’’ on the front. It was a salute to Knoxville native and former Navy football player Will McKamey, who died on March 25, 2014 after collapsing on the practice field.

#1 North Carolina 91, Temple 67 Kennedy Meeks had a career-high 25 points and 11 rebounds to help No. 1 North Carolina launch a season of lofty expectations with a 91-67 win over Temple in the opener of the Veterans Classic, a doubleheader at the U.S. Naval Academy. Brice Johnson contributed 16 points and 10 boards, and Nate Britt scored 15 for UNC, who took control late in the first half. Meeks scored in the lane, connected on fadeaway jumpers and squared up from 15 feet. He went 10-for-14 from the floor and sank five of seven free throws in posting a career high for points. With Meeks leading the way, North Carolina finished with a 49-32 rebounding advantage. Devin Coleman led Temple with 19 points. The score was tied at 34 late in the first half before the Tar Heels showed why they’re currently considered to be the best team in the country. Isaiah Hicks made a layup, Meeks hauled in a Temple miss and Britt nailed a 3-pointer. A steal by Joel Berry II led to a basket by Meeks, and another 3 by Britt concluded the 10-0 run that put North Carolina in control. To hammer home the point, Theo Pinson drilled a long-range jumper at the buzzer, turned around a strutted toward the locker room with the score 47-36. North Carolina remained comfortably in front during the second half, and coach Roy Williams began substituting liberally with 6 minutes left and the Tar Heels up by 18.

#18 Michigan State 64, Navy 59 Navy battled #18 Michigan State for the entire game, but came up just short in a five-point loss at the inaugural Veterans Classic, falling to the Spartans, 64-59. Travis Trice scored a career-high 25 points for the Spartans, who blew most of a 13-point lead in the second half. Though having a height advantage and supposedly a huge talent edge, Michigan State got all it could handle from the disciplined Midshipmen. Michigan State led 44-43 with 11 minutes left and 53-50 with seven minutes remaining before Navy went cold. A 3-pointer by Denzel Valentine, coupled with a layup by Branden Dawson with 5:29 to go, upped the margin to eight points. It wasn’t good enough. The Midshipmen cut it to 60-57, and again the Spartans appeared in trouble. Trice made the difference. His driving shot with 1:46 left made it 6257, and his three free throws in the final 18 seconds sealed it. Edward Alade led Navy with 12 points. The Midshipmen were outrebounded 38-30 but stayed close by forcing 15 turnovers and committing only 10. A 3-pointer by Trice with 17:55 remaining put the Spartans up 42-29, their biggest lead. But the Midshipmen answered with a 10-0 run, getting points from four different players, and Izzo reluctantly took a timeout. When play resumed, Navy missed a chance to tie it when a 3-pointer by Brandon Venturini rimmed out. Trice scored on the other end, but it was hardly the beginning of the end for the Midshipmen.

Florida 59, Navy 41 Playing in the second annual Veterans Classic on its home court of Alumni Hall, the Navy men’s basketball team suffered a 59-41 loss to visiting Florida on the opening night of college basketball. The Mids had a strong start to the game and led after the first 10 minutes, 11-9, but faded into a very poor night of shooting against Florida’s strong defensive play. The Mids shot just 29 percent from the floor, 21 percent on 3-pointers and 25 percent from the free-throw line. Navy rattled off an early 9-0 run that saw Will Kelly make a layup while being fouled and then sophomore Shawn Anderson drilled a 3-pointer. The Mids went up 9-2 after Zach Fong’s basket was ruled good after a goaltending call. However, the Gators made their comeback and closed the first half on a 25-10 run. Navy had a chance to cut the halftime deficit to five in the last 10 seconds, but instead missed a jumper and then gave up an and-1 play to Devin Robinson to go down 10 at 29-19. Florida’s lead grew early in the second half and the Gators extended their lead to 16 after a 3-pointer from Brandone Francis-Ramirez and a dunk by Dorian Finney-Smith. Robinson scored a game-high 13 points for Florida and also added 10 rebounds, while Finney-Smith grabbed a game-high 12 rebounds. Florida outrebounded Navy, 47-33, but the Gators also turned the ball over 19 times. The doubleheader was played in front of a sold out Alumni Hall crowd of 5,710 fans.

VETERANS CLASSIC HISTORY – THE NAVAL ACADEMY EXPERIENCE

Prior to the 2014-15 college basketball season, CBS Sports Network and the Naval Academy partnered to create a new college basketball event, the Veterans Classic, an annual showcase bringing together top teams from across the country in celebration of Veterans Day. The Veterans Classic enters its third edition in 2016-17. The inaugural event was Friday, Nov. 14 with No. 15 VCU playing Tennessee and Navy hosting No. 18 Michigan State. CBS Sports televised the doubleheader and had on-site pre-game, halftime and post-game studio coverage, live from Alumni Hall in Annapolis. The second edition of the Veterans Class featured No. 1 North Carolina playing Temple in the opening game and Navy facing Florida in the nightcap. The third annual Veterans Classic will feature Marquette vs. Vanderbilt in the opener and Navy vs. Ohio State in the second game this year.

Each season, the three visiting schools receive a glimpse of what life is like as a midshipman at the Naval Academy. The teams tour the `Yard,’ watch noon meal formation and eat lunch with the Brigade at King Hall. The teams board a yard patrol ship, go into a ship simulator, tour a MH-60S helicopter and a Marine Corps humvee. The teams are immersed in the culture and tradition of the Naval Academy as the event includes a number of other unique experiences, including military demonstrations, receptions. and guest speakers. CBS Sports produced a 30-minute ‘Hoops Confidential’ documentary on each of the first two events and will do so again in 2016.

UNITED STATES NAVAL ACADEMY As the undergraduate college of the Naval service, the Naval Academy prepares young men and women to become professional officers and leaders 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 a bachelor of science degree and commissioned 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 24 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 development in mind and character to assume the highest responsibilities of command, citizenship and government.”­

ACADEMY HISTORY AND TRADITIONS Blue & Gold

From the first athletic competition played on the gridiron in 1879 to Navy’s recent triumphs, several events, people, rivalries and personalities have shaped the entire Naval Academy athletic program. Below is a look at just some of the history and traditions that make Navy one of the most storied programs in all of collegiate athletics.

This song was written in 1923 by Cmdr. Roy DeS. Horn, USN (Ret.) with music composed by J.W. Crosley. Following every home athletic competition, the team faces its fans with their hands on their heart and sings the following:

Anchors Aweigh

Now, colleges from sea to sea may sing of colors true; But who has better right than we to hoist a symbol hue? For sailors brave in battle fair, since fighting days of old, Have proved the sailor’s right to wear the Navy Blue and Gold

“Anchors Aweigh” was written by Lt. Charles Zimmermann, Musical Director of the Naval Academy in 1906, with the lyrics provided by Alfred H. Miles of the Class of 1906, as a fight song for the 1907 graduating class instead of the usual class march Zimmermann had composed for previous classes. The song made its debut at the 1906 Army-Navy game, and when the Midshipmen won the game, the song became traditional at this game. It gained national exposure in the 1920s and 1930s when it was heard on the radio and was in a number of popular movies. In 1997 a one-hour documentary on the history of Navy football, titled “Anchors Aweigh for Honor and Glory”, was produced by NFL Films. The film was deemed a success by both critics and fans alike. Here are the words:

Gokokuji Bell

The bell is an exact replica of the 1456 casting brought to this country by Commodore Matthew C. Perry following his expedition to Japan in 1854. The original bell, donated to the Naval Academy by Commodore Perry’s widow, was returned by the Navy to the people of Okinama in 1987. Like the original bell, the replica is rung to celebrate football victories over Army. The bell is stationed in front of Bancroft Hall.

I Believe That We Will Win

Stand Navy down the field, Sails set to the sky, We’ll never change our course, So Army you steer shy. Roll up the score, Navy, Anchors Aweigh, Sail Navy down the field, And sink the Army, Sink the Army Grey

“I Believe That We Will Win” is one of the most popular sports chants in the country, and while often replicated, the chant can trace its roots back to the Naval Academy. In 1998 at the Naval Academy Preparatory School, Jay Rodriguez was tasked to come up with a cheer for his platoon. He began by chanting the word “I” and then asked his classmates to chant it back. He then said “I Believe” and again asked them to chant it back. This continued until the full phrase of “I Believe That We Will Win” was completed and it was then repeated multiple times in unison while everyone jumped up and down. The chant made its sporting event debut at the Army Prep vs. Navy Prep men’s basketball game in Newport, R.I. that year. The following year, Rodriguez was a plebe at the Naval Academy and he taught the chant to classmate Corey Strong, a member of the cheerleading team. During Navy’s 19-9 win over Army at the 1999 Army-Navy football game in Philadelphia, Strong led the Brigade of Midshipmen, over 4,000 strong, to a stirring rendition that helped the chant reach a new level of prominence. Midshipmen have since been performing the chant at football games and other sporting events in the closing minutes of games in which a Navy victory is imminent.

Bancroft Hall

Named after former Secretary of the Navy George Bancroft, the Hall is home for the entire Brigade of Midshipmen. It contains 1,873 midshipmen rooms, nearly five miles of corridors and approximately 33 acres of floor space, making it one of the largest single dormitories in the world. All of the basic facilities midshipmen need for daily living, and many for recreation, are found in the Hall.

N-Star

Members of varsity teams who qualify for their varsity letter receive an N-Star if they participate in a victory over Army in any sport’s designated “Star” competition. Navy is 16-0-1 against Army over the last 17 years in the Star series and is 30-3-2 over the last 35 years.

Bill the Goat

Midshipman

The first recorded use of a goat mascot for Navy athletic teams was in 1893 when an animal named El Cid (The Chief) was turned over to the Brigade by young officers of the USS New York. El Cid helped Navy to a 6-4 triumph over Army that year. Two cats, a dog, and a carrier pigeon have also enjoyed brief reigns as the Navy mascot, but goats have served without interruption since 1904. Bill XXXIII and XXXIV are the current mascots. They are taken care of by 15 goathandlers made up of five midshipmen from the first, second and third classes. The goathandlers undergo rigorous training prior to handling Bill on the field.

The word midshipman first appeared in English in the 17th century in the form of the word midshipman to designate those men who were stationed “amidships,” i.e. in the waist or middle portion of the vessel, while on duty. By 1687, however, the second ‘s’ had been dropped to give the current form of the word. Midshipmen were originally boys, sometimes as young as seven or eight, who were apprenticed to sea captains to learn the sailor’s trade. In the early days of the American Navy, midshipmen trained aboard ship until they were eventually commissioned as ensigns. With the founding of the Naval Academy in 1845, it became possible, as it still is, for a midshipman to enter the Navy directly from civilian life. The name of students at the Naval Academy changed several times between 1870 and 1902, when Congress restored the original title of Midshipman, and it has remained unchanged since.

Tecumseh

The familiar Native American figurehead facing Bancroft Hall and Tecumseh Court has been an Annapolis resident since 1866. Originally, the figurehead of the USS Delaware was meant to portray Tamanend, the great chief of the Delawares. It developed that Tamanend was a lover of peace and did not strike the fancy of the Brigade. Looking for another name, Midshipmen referred to the figurehead as Powhatan and King Philip before finally settling on Tecumseh, the fierce Shawnee chieftain who lived from 1768-1813. It is considered a good-luck “mascot” for the midshipmen, who in times past would throw pennies at it and offer left-handed salutes whenever they wanted a ‘favor’, such as a sports win over West Point, or spiritual help for examinations.
