He was acting head cross country coach for the Cardinals in the 1978-79 season and became the head coach of the cross country and track & field teams in 1979. During his time at Ball State, Cooksey worked with 18 NCAA qualifiers, three All-Americans and an NCAA champion. In 1998, he was named the head coach for the United States World Junior Championship team and has served as a coach on several other U.S. National teams. Most recently, Cooksey served as the head coach of the 2008 U.S. World Indoor Championship team. An associate professor in the physical education department at the Academy, Cooksey was named the recipient of the 2003 Superintendent's Distinguished Athletic Leadership Award for teaching and coaching. His road to becoming one of the top collegiate track coaches began in Terre Haute, Ind., where he was a nationally-ranked high-jumper, two-time captain and team MVP for the Indiana State track program. Cooksey enjoyed a decorated athletic career for the Sycamores, collectand U.S. Track & Field Federation All-America honors.

Cooksey's success has also carried over into Navy's Star Meet competitions against archrival Army, where his teams own a 26-20 career mark against the Black Knights. Over the last 13 years, the Mids have won 18-of28 dual meet competitions against Army, including seven indoor and outdoor season sweeps.

Cooksey was named the Patriot League Indoor Coach of the Year during the 2010-11 season after leading Navy to the indoor team title. The Mids trailed Army by 32 team points with four events remaining (pole vault, 3,000, distance medley relay, 4x400 relay) in the championship. The Mids won the pole vault and the 3,000 and picked up huge points, outscoring Army 30-0 in the two events to enter the final two relays down just 2 points. Navy then won the DMR and Army placed second to set up the final event, the 4x400, which Navy won to take the team crown in a dramatic finish. Cooksey came to Annapolis in 1984 and assisted Al Cantello with both the cross country and the track & field teams at Navy for four seasons before taking over the reins of Navy's track program. Before coming to Navy, Cooksey spent six years as the head cross country and track & field coach at Ball State, where he began as an assis-

Assistant Coach - Throws Fifth Year at Navy U.S. Naval Academy ‘89 Chris Campbell, a 1989 Academy graduate, is entering his fifth season as an assistant and the primary throws coach at Navy. Campbell has made an immediate impact working with the team's contingent of throwers. In both 2008 and 2009, Navy throwers have earned Field-Athlete-of-the-Meet honors at the Patriot League Outdoor Championship, most recently with team captain and Academic All-American Mark Van Orden sweeping the conference's hammer and weight throw titles to earn the distinction in 2009. Van Orden won two league titles as a senior and was named to the ESPN The Magazine/CoSIDA Academic All-American First Team. Campbell's throwers won the indoor league weight throw and the outdoor shot put during the 2010-11 season and freshman Zachary Duncavage qualified for the NCAA East Regional in the discus. Campbell, himself, was a four-year letterwinner on the Midshipmen track & field team. A javelin thrower and former school record holder, he was elected team captain his senior year. Upon graduation, Campbell was assigned to the San Diego-based naval warship, USS COPELAND, which completed CARAT operations during Desert Storm and counter-narcotic operations off the coast of Central America in 1993. Campbell completed his military obligation as an Operations Officer at Naval Station Annapolis and achieved the rank of Lieutenant before resigning from the Navy in 1995. While completing his military obligation, he served as a volunteer coach at Navy while completing an M.S. in Education at Johns Hopkins University. Campbell's second coaching stop came at Ball State University, where he served as field events coach for the Cardinals program from 1996-99. During his tenure, Campbell directed student-athletes to NCAA qualifying marks in the hammer throw and high jump, four school records, and a MidAmerican Conference hammer throw championship. In addition, he helped lead the 1998 Ball State women's squad to both the Indoor and Outdoor MAC team titles. Following his three-year stint at Ball State, Campbell spent six seasons at Fresno State, including two as the associate head coach. There he mentored All-Americans in the decathlon, javelin and shot put, while helping the women's team to the 2005 California-Nevada Coaches Association Team Championship, and the Bulldog men to the same title in 2000. The women's squad also captured the WAC title in 2002, its first conference championship in 10 years. Campbell also held the role of recruiting coordinator while at Fresno State, inking several blue-chip athletes, including the nation's top-ranked high school javelin thrower in 2003. Additionally, he served as Vice President of the California-Nevada Coaches Association and as Men's and Women's Development Chairperson for the Central Valley Chapter of USA Track and Field. While there, he also completed a Master of Arts in Kinesiology in 2003. Prior to Navy, Campbell served as an assistant for the combined men's and women's program at Michigan State. Working primarily with the throw-
ers and multi-event athletes, he tutored nine Spartans to 16 scoring positions at the Big Ten Championships, four NCAA regional qualifying marks, a pair of NCAA provisional marks in the women's pentathlon and heptathlon, and four school records. In addition to his coaching duties, Campbell served as assistant meet director for the 2006 Big Ten Outdoor Track and Field Championships and directed the 30-team Spartan Invitational. During his more than a decade of collegiate coaching experience, Campbell has mentored a total of three NCAA All-Americans, seven junior national All-Americans, 30 NCAA regional and championships qualifiers, nine conference champions, and four Olympic Trials participants. Campbell has also completed USATF Coaching Education Schools through Level III and has been a NSCA Certified Strength and Conditioning Specialist since 1996. Campbell and his wife, Julie, are the parents of a newborn son, Mark. The Campbells reside in Annapolis.
Jason Grimes Volunteer Assistant Fifth Year at Navy Tennessee ‘81 Jason Grimes enters his fifth season at Navy as a volunteer assistant coach, working with the jumpers and sprinters. Grimes served as a volunteer assistant coach for two seasons at Maryland from 2005-07. In the jumps and sprints, he coached three All-Americans, two Atlantic Coast Conference champions, one ACC record holder, one IC4A title-winning relay and several NCAA regional qualifiers. In just two seasons, his athletes had a hand in shattering five school records. A 1981 graduate from the University of Tennessee, Grimes earned All-America honors seven times during his career in the sprints and long jump and was crowned Southeastern Conference champion three times. Following his collegiate career, Grimes went on to post the world’s second-best ranking in the long jump between 1982-83, soaring a remarkable distance of 28’2”. He would rank among the top-five long jumpers in the world for five-straight years between 1981-85. Grimes went on to earn a Silver Medal at the 1983 World Championship in Helsinki, Finland, and served as an alternate on the 1984 U.S. Olympic Team. Grimes resides in Bowie, Md., with his wife, Phyllis, and his children, Jason II, Janea, Jay and Kennedy.

A mainstay with the men's track & field program, Al Cantello enters his 49th year of coaching at the Navy as the top assistant and primary distance coach. Cantello won his fourth straight Patriot League Cross Country Championship in 2011 and helped Navy's men's indoor track and field team win the team title last year by taking first place in the mile, 3,000m, 5,000m, and distance medley relay. During the outdoor season, Cantello's distance runners won the 1,500m, 5,000m, 3,000m steeplechase and Andrew Hanko won the IC4A Outdoor 5K title. Following the 2009-10 season, Cantello was named the U.S. Track & Field and Cross County Coaches Association (USTFCCCA) Mid-Atlantic Region Assistant Coach of the Year. He led the 2009 Navy cross country team to a Patriot League Championship and four distance runners earned All-East honors at the IC4A Indoor Championships. Cantello also remains the guiding force for the Navy men's cross country program, which he has helped mold into one of the most consistent teams nationally since being named head coach 42 years ago. Navy has currently won four straight Patriot League Cross Country Championships (2008-11) and Cantello has been named the league coach of the year each of the past four seasons. With an all-time record of 240-69-1 (.775), Cantello has coached several standout runners during his tenure in Annapolis. Jon Clemens received AllAmerica honors during the 1996 cross country season, while John Mentzer was named a 1997 All-American in both the 5,000m and 10,000m. Michael Ryan earned similar honors in 1999 for his 4:01.57 time in the mile, and Erik Schmidt took fifth in the mile at the NCAA Indoor Championship in March of 2003. In addition, two of Navy's distance relay teams were ranked among the nation's top 15 during the 1999 outdoor campaign. The mile relay team of Eric Adams, John McNamara, Ryan Runge and Ryan was fourth in the nation, while the distance medley relay squad of Adams, Torrance Chaplin, Karlton Holston and Ryan was nationally ranked, as well. As a result of his team's successes, Cantello has been amply recognized, including being named the NCAA Mid-Atlantic Regional Coach of the Year three times (1984, '85 and '92). In 1997, the Naval Academy Alumni Association awarded Cantello the Distinguished Athletic Leadership Award for a coach or faculty member who did the most for the physical development of the Midshipmen in physical education. Cantello also received the inaugural Tom Hamilton Teaching/ Coaching Award, as voted by his peers that same year. Additionally, this past spring Cantello, one of only two three-time winners of the javelin throw in the Penn Relays, was among the 16th group of inductees to the Penn Relays Wall Of Fame. From 1981-88, Cantello held a dual coaching role, guiding Navy's men's indoor and outdoor track squads while maintaining his cross country duties. Cantello owns a stellar .797 all-time winning percentage with over 300 victories as a head coach in cross country, indoor and outdoor track. Among his
coaching triumphs are 41 N-Stars, including 30 in cross country - the most by a Navy coach in one sport. A 1955 graduate of La Salle, Cantello was a two-time All-American in the javelin. He was enshrined as a charter member of La Salle's Hall of Athletes in 1961. A former world-class competitor in the javelin, Cantello once held every national and international record in the event. In 1959, he set a world record in the javelin and competed for the U.S. Olympic Team the following year in the 1960 Games in Rome. In 1964, Sport Magazine named Cantello to its alltime track & field team and voted him the world's greatest javelin competitor. Cantello and his wife, Jackie, are the parents of three adult children - Karla McMahon, Karen O'Kane and the late Albert Jr. - and seven grandchildren.

Stephen Cooksey (Indiana State '72)
w w w. N AV YS P O RT S . c o m
Name Erik Bergstrom
N AV Y M E N ’ S T R AC K & F I E L D Season Outlook
due to an injury.
Head coach Stephen Cooksey will enter his 24th season at the helm of the Navy men's track and field program in 2011-12 and is coming off a 2011 Patriot League Indoor Championship and a fifth career Patriot League Coach of the Year honor.
Senior Lucas Connelly took runner-up honors at the Patriot League Outdoor Championships in the 800m last season. He will look to carry that momentum into his senior season.
Cooksey has a solid returning group that features three athletes that competed in the NCAA's East Regional and eight athletes that earned IC4A All-East honors last year. Additionally, Navy brings back 13 athletes that earned All-Patriot First or Second Team honors in 2010-11. The Navy distance squad is carrying great momentum into the track season, as the runners are coming off a fourth straight Patriot League Cross Country Championship in 2011, under the direction of head men's cross country coach and assistant track coach Al Cantello.
w w w. N AV YS P O RT S . c o m
"I think the middle distance and distance will be a big area for us," Cooksey said. "Coming off another Patriot League Championship and a win over Army, they are coming in with a lot of confidence." Navy will be expected to contend at the top of the Patriot League and will look to continue to send multiple athletes to the NCAA's East Regional. Sprints Senior Alexander Jackson returns as the team's most accomplished sprinter. Jackson earned All-Patriot League Second Team honors by placing second in the 400m dash at the outdoor league meet in 2011, with a season-best time of 48.75. Junior Kolton Kempel will also be competitive in the 400m after placing third in the event at the indoor league meet last year. Sophomore Brett Bogaard will be Navy's top returner in the 60m and 100m dashes. Bogaard was a top-eight finisher in both events in last year's Patriot League Championships. He also scored at the league meet in the 200m and was an IC4A qualifier in the event during the indoor season. Senior Isaac Teichgrab was also an IC4A qualifier in the indoor 200m dash. Freshmen Rico Goldstone and Jalen Elrod will also factor in the short sprints this season and classmate Daniel Gallien will compete in the longer sprints for Navy. "Bogaard ran well last year as a plebe and I think he is going to improve this year," said Cooksey. "Gallien is just absolutely tenacious. He gives you everything that's in him when he runs. Kempel did well last year as we went along and he was consistent." Middle Distance Senior Dominic Della Pelle is the returning Patriot League champion in the mile and also earned IC4A All-East honors in the 1,500m last season. He has earned All-East honors five times in his career. Della Pelle's top mile time last season was a 4:05.98 and he clocked a 3:48.92 in the 1,500m. Della Pelle will serve as Navy's indoor season team captain. "Dominic has a fire burning in him to get it done," Cooksey said. "He will show people the way. I think he is tough enough that he will stand up and verbalize what needs to be done with this team. His peers elected him captain; they see something in him they think will put this team on the right track." Senior Matthew Evers is back for a final season after winning the 500m at the indoor league meet last winter. Evers qualified for the IC4A Indoor meet in both the 500m and the 800m, before missing the outdoor season
"Connelly ran extremely well at the end of last year and he has picked up right where he left off," said Cooksey. Senior Jeremy Haney placed fifth in the mile at the IC4A meet to earn AllEast honors and his third-place showing in the event at the Patriot League Indoor Championships allowed the Mids to go 1-2-3 in the event. Navy will also have junior Joshua Shaw in the mix in the middle distance events. "Shaw is starting to show some presence and show that he is a dog in the fight," Cooksey said. "He's got some speed." Cooksey will also look to a pair of freshmen in Ryan Pajor and Joshua Kingsland to factor in the mid-distance runs. "Pajor and Kingsland have both come in out of high school running great times. They are a couple good half milers that will add to this group." Distance Senior Cody Rome is Navy's most decorated performer returning to the team this season. Rome set a school record in the 3,000m with a time of 7:55.12 at the Alex Wilson Invite last season and his time ranked 21st on the national performance list, just missing a berth to the NCAA Indoor Championship by one spot. Rome also set a new Patriot League Championship record in the 3,000m by winning the event at the league meet with a time of 8:07.51. Rome qualified for the NCAA's East Regional last spring during the outdoor season in the 5,000m. Rome has great range and posted IC4A-qualifying times last season in three indoor events (1,000m, mile and 3,000m) and two outdoor events (1,500m and 5,000m). Rome is equally as impressive in the classroom, as he earned USTFCCCA Academic All-America Second Team honors last season and was chosen as the Patriot League Indoor Track and Field Scholar-Athlete of the Year. Senior Kenneth Bunnell and junior Kyle Satterwhite will also be key contributors in the distance events. Bunnell earned IC4A All-East honors in the 3,000m last season and Satterwhite placed ninth at the outdoor IC4A meet in the 5,000m. Junior Dean Black will look to win his third straight Patriot League Championship in the 3,000m Steeplechase in 2012. Black is the two-time defending league champion in the event and competed in the steeplechase at the NCAA's East Regional last spring. Black placed 15th in the event, narrowly missing a top-12 finish that would have earned him a bid to the NCAA Outdoor Championships. "I'm looking for these guys to be the group that lifts this team," Cooksey said. "If we can get it started with them, with the confidence they have, the focus that they have, I think we will be OK." Additional returning distance runners who will look to break out this year are senior James Pearson, senior Michael Sheehan, junior Christopher Galvin and sophomore Robert Patterson. Pearson had a solid cross country season in captaining the team to its fourth straight league title.

N AV Y M E N ’ S T R AC K & F I E L D Navy also welcomes in a large group of freshmen distance runners, including: Drew Calcagno, Brian De La Mora, Zach Hebda, Ryan Kelley, Shane O'Donnell, John Sweeney, Jeramy Triplett and Cody Vernon. Navy will be moving forward in the distance events without standout Andrew Hanko, a 2011 Academy graduate. Hanko won the past three 5,000m titles at the outdoor league meet and the last two 5K titles at the indoor league meet. He also won the last two 1,500m titles. Hanko took the gold medal in the 5,000m run at the IC4A Outdoor meet in 2011. Hurdles Junior Mitch Simmonds will lead the way for Navy in the sprint hurdle events. Simmonds earned IC4A All-East honors in 2011 in the 60m hurdles and placed third in the event at the Patriot League Indoor Championships. Simmonds was also the team's top performer in the 110m hurdles. Sophomore Isaac Losee will compete in the 60m hurdles, 110m hurdles and the 400m hurdles and senior Fleet White is Navy's top competitor in the 400m hurdles.
"We have a chance to be halfway decent in the high jump," Cooksey said. "With Houston and Montermini to begin with, then the back filled with Brian Zitterkopf and Hunter Gibson. Zitterkopf is starting to get back into it after his ACL injury and he seems very focused to get it done this year." Sophomore Ryan Kochert is coming off a superb freshman campaign in the pole vault. Kochert cleared 15-9 to win the Patriot League Indoor title. Kochert also placed ninth in the event at the IC4A Indoor meet, just missing All-East honors. Navy will have great depth in the pole vault this season, as senior Paul Neidhardt scored in the event at the league meet last season and the team welcomes in a talented freshmen pole vault contingent. "We've got a big group of pole vaulters," Cooksey said. "Ryan Kochert is back after winning the Patriot League last year. Paul Neidhardt is back, so we've got a good start. Then we've got about five plebes that are between 15 and 15-6. We've got depth in that event." Two of the freshmen pole vaulters expected to contribute are Mark Vetere and Matt Deisher. Junior Miles Snelgrove used an IC4A-qualifying long jump of 23-¾ to take third place at the indoor league meet last season. Snelgrove's outdoor season was cut short due to an injury. Freshman Rico Goldstone will also be a contributor in the long jump. Senior Brian Zitterkopf will begin the season as the team's top triple jumper. Throws Fifth-year assistant coach Chris Campbell has a solid group of returning throwers, which will be highlighted by senior Chris Ricks. Ricks won the Patriot League weight throw title with a personal best throw of 60-3¼ and
"Chris will step up and let people on the team know which direction they need to head and what they need to be doing to make the team better," Cooksey said. "I'm very comfortable with him being captain and he gives us somebody who is ready to compete all the time." Senior Chris Boniwell took first in the shot put at the Patriot League Outdoor Championships with a personal-best and IC4A-qualifying effort of 5311. Boniwell won the shot put at both Army-Navy meets last season and qualified for the IC4As in the discus. Sophomore Zachary Duncavage had a very successful freshman season in the discus last season. Duncavage qualified for the NCAA's East Regional, earned IC4A All-East honors and was the Patriot League runner-up in the event. Duncavage had a season-best discus throw of 171-8. Miles Snelgrove is on of the team's top javelin thrower. Snelgrove won the javelin in all four events he competed in last season before suffering an injury. He posted a season-best and IC4A-qualifying mark of 217-1. Ricks is also a key competitor in the javelin and placed third in the event at the league meet last spring. Freshmen Aaron Zack and David Capote will also be competitive in the javelin. "We've got a good group of throwers," Cooksey said. "With Ricks, Boniwell Duncavage and Snelgrove, that's a really good start. We've also got some very young guys in the javelin that have thrown well in Aaron Zach and David Capote. That will give us some help in that area." Sophomore Brandon Swindler could emerge as a solid hammer thrower this season. "Swindler is just getting started with us but he has great size," said Cooksey. "He has a real yearning to learn the event and hopefully down the road that will pay off for us." Multi-Events Juniors Rand Montermini and Christopher Fowler give Navy a solid 1-2 punch in the multi-events. Both scored in the heptathlon at the Patriot League Indoor Championships as sophomores last season. Montermini scored 4,725 points to place third and Fowler racked up 4,498 points to take sixth. Relays Navy has had a good amount of success in recent years with its relay teams. In 2010-11, Navy won the 4x400m and the distance medley relay at the Patriot League indoor meet. Additionally, Navy's outdoor 4x800m team earned IC4A All-East honors by placing fourth in the event at the championship meet. Navy's 4x400m provided a clutch performance that allowed the team to clinch the Patriot League Indoor Championship last season in the meet's final race. Navy entered the relay tied with Army for first place and Alexander Jackson, Kolton Kempel, David Ash and Matthew Evers ran a 3:17.40 to take first place and secure the team title for Navy. The 4xMile relay team of Cody Rome, Dominic Della Pelle, Jeremy Haney and Andrew Hanko placed sixth in the 4xMile Championship of America at the Penn Relays last spring. Navy clocked a 16:32.59 in the event, placing behind Princeton, Arkansas, Indiana, Villanova and Florida State.

Jumps Joshua Houston is a highly decorated high jumper that will look to cap off his Navy career on a positive note. Houston earned All-East honors in 2010 and placed second in the event at the Patriot League indoor meet last season. Houston met the IC4A standard of 6-8¼ in both the indoor and outdoor seasons in 2011. Junior Rand Montermini is also a multieventer who counts the high jump as one of his strongest events, clearing 6-7½ last season.
also took second place in the hammer throw during the outdoor season. Ricks' weight throw title marked the fourth straight year that a Midshipman has claimed the event at the indoor league meet. Ricks will serve as Navy's outdoor team captain.

2010-11 Season in Review The highlight of Navy’s 2010-11 track and field season was the Patriot League Indoor Championship, which Navy hosted in the Wesley A. Brown Field House. Navy trailed Army by 32 team points with four events remaining (pole vault, 3,000, distance medley relay, 4x400 relay) in the championship. The Mids won the pole vault and the 3,000 and picked up huge points, outscoring Army 30-0 in the two events to enter the final two relays down just 2 points. Navy then won the DMR and Army placed second to set up the final event, the 4x400, with Navy and Army deadlocked at 161-161. The 4x400m relay team of Alex Jackson, Kolton Kempel, David Ash and Matt Evers all ran 49 second splits to easily stay in front of Army and take first place in the race, clinching the indoor team title in front of their home crowd. Navy won eight events at the indoor league meet and had three athletes place second in their respective events. Head coach Stephen Cooksey was tabbed as the Patriot League Indoor Coach of the Year. Navy’s successful season continued at the IC4A meet, where Ken Bunnell (3,000m), Jeremy Haney (mile) and Mitch Simmonds (60m hurdles) all earned All-East honors. Cody Rome was competing in the Alex Wilson Invitational at Notre Dame during the IC4A meet, where he placed first and set a school record time in the 3,000m of 7:55.12. The time ranked him 21st on the NCAA Indoor performance list, one spot away from earning an invite to the NCAA Indoor Championship. The Mids placed third at the Patriot League Outdoor Championship, with senior Andrew Hanko taking first place in both the 1,500m and the 5,000m. It was the third straight year that Hanko won the outdoor 5K race at the league meet. Navy had seven athletes earn IC4A All-East honors at the outdoor league meet. Hanko took first place in the 5,000m run and Dean Black (3,000m Steeplechase), Zach Duncavage (discus) and Dominic Della Pelle (1,500m) earned All-East honors. Della Pelle also teamed up with Lucas Connelly, Ash and George Stevenson to take AllEast honors in the 4x800m relay. The Mids sent four athletes to the NCAA Outdoor Regional Meet. Black posted Navy’s best performance, taking 15th in the 3,000m Steeplechase. Hanko was 20th and Rome was 30th in the 5,000m run and Duncavage placed 36th in the discus.

Built facing the scenic Severn River, the Wesley A. Brown Field House is a 140,000-square-foot multi-function athletic facility that has served as the home for the Naval Academy’s men's track & field program, since 2008. The facility boasts a unique combination of a 76,000square-foot retractable Magic Carpet Astroturf system and a Mondo track surface with hydraulically controlled banked curves. The 200-meter hydraulic banked track is one of only four of its kind in the United States. It also features dual pole vault/jumping runways and throwing areas. State-of-the-art weight training and sports medicine facilities, as well as equipment storage areas round out this newest crown jewel to the Navy athletics arsenal. The facility is named after Lt. Cmdr. Wesley Brown, USN (ret.), the first African American midshipman to graduate from the Naval Academy in 1949.
WESLEY ANTHONY BROWN Lieutenant Commander Wesley A. Brown, CEC, USN, (Ret.), was born April 3, 1927 in Baltimore, Md. He graduated from Dunbar High School in Washington, D.C., where he was Cadet Corps Regimental Commander during his senior year. Lt. Cmdr. Brown is the first African American to graduate from the U.S. Naval Academy. Nominated for admission by New York Congressman Adam Clayton Powell, Brown entered the Academy in 1945 and graduated in June of 1949. Lt. Cmdr. Brown, a veteran of World War II, the Korean and Vietnam Wars, retired in June 1969 after serving 20 years in the Navy’s Civil Engineer Corps. He holds the Navy Commendation Medal, World War II and Korean War Victory, Korean Service, and American Theater and Antarctic Service Ribbons. Brown and his wife, Crystal, have four children and seven grandchildren.

The all-weather MONDO track located northeast of Michelson Hall and Chauvenet Hall is the site of Navy's outdoor track and field meets.
Considered to be one of the premier facilities in the United States, it is named in honor of Vice Admiral Jonas H. Ingram, who commanded the U.S. South Atlantic Fleet during World War II. He was also the Naval Academy Director of Athletics from 1925-1930.
w w w. N AV YS P O RT S . c o m
The track underwent a $1.7 million renovation in the fall of 2001, with new all-weather surfacing placed on the quarter-mile oval and jump areas.
The field area boasts six shot put circles, a discus-throwing circle and a javelin throwing area in the middle of the track. The field has four long/triple jump pits and a “D” zone that allows two high jump areas to be used concurrently.
The facility is also equipped with lights and Navy regularly holds 'twilight' meets at the facility. Additionally, the facility also features a Daktronics scoreboard, which displays current times and marks during meets.

At the Naval Academy, beating Army is important. Plebes yell “Beat Army!” in Bancroft Hall, “Beat Army!” is on every weight in the Naval Academy weight rooms, and alums and fans alike scream “Beat Army!” at the end of Blue & Gold, the Naval Academy’s alma mater.
Navy has dominated Army in all sports, posting a winning record against the Black Knights in 37 of the last 40 years and has not lost the N-Star series in 15-consecutive years.

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 bachelor of science degrees and 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 23 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 responsibilities of command, citizenship and government.”

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. ANCHORS AWEIGH "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: 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
BILL THE GOAT 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. BLUE & GOLD 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 notes:-
# 56 #
N AV Y M E N ’ S T R AC K & F I E L D 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
The Blue Angels perform an air show along the Severn River on the northern bank of the Academy each spring during Commissioning Week.
ENTERPRISE BELL From the bridge of the famed World War II aircraft carrier, it has been a part of the Naval Academy tradition since 1950. The late Admiral Harry W. Hill, then Superintendent, was instrumental in bringing the "E" Bell to Annapolis. It rings during special ceremonies when Navy scores a majority of victories over Army in any one of the three sports seasons. The bell also rings during Commissioning Week for those teams that beat Army and have not participated in a previous bell-ringing during the academic year. The bell is stationed in front of Bancroft Hall.
The Navy football team gathered for the traditional singing of the Blue & Gold following its win over Army in 2010, its ninth-consecutive win over its rival. Below: The mens’ lacrosse team sang an emotional rendition of Blue & Gold following its overtime victory over rival Johns Hopkins in 2010.
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. The original wooden statue was replaced after some 50 years in the open weather by a durable bronze replica, presented by the Class of 1891. 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. These days it receives a fresh coat of war paint and is often decorated in various themes during football weeks and other special occasions such as Commissioning Week.

MIDSHIPMAN 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 his 11th 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. In 2010-11, Navy won 63 percent of its contests and claimed the overall series against Army for the 18th time in the last 19 years. Navy produced nine All-Americans, 11 conference athletes of the year, nine conference coaches of the year and 11 conference championships. The Mids also excelled in the classroom, ranking No. 4 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 five Academic All-Americans, four Patriot League Scholar Athletes of the Year and an NCAA Postgraduate Scholarship winner. Six of the top 15 Naval Academy graduates and 28 of the top 100 graduates in the Class of 2011 were involved with varsity or club athletics. The football team had another successful season in 2010, posting a 9-4 record and playing in a school-record eighth-consecutive bowl game. The Mids beat Army for a series-record ninth-consecutive year and defeated Notre Dame for the third time in four seasons. Other teams who flourished in 2010-11 included the women’s basketball team winning the Patriot League Championship and advancing to the NCAA Tournament for the first time in school history; the rifle team placed seventh at the NCAA Championship; the women’s lacrosse team advanced to the NCAA Tournament for the second-straight season; intercollegiate sailing placed ninth at the ICSA Nationals; the baseball team won the Patriot League Regular Season and Tournament titles and participated in the NCAA Tournament for the first time since 2002; while the water polo, men’s cross country, men’s swimming & diving, men’s indoor track & field, women’s indoor track & field and women’s rowing all won conference titles. 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 ports Network that has increased
Navy’s television exposure both in the United States and internationally. CBS 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-on-demand 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 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 fed-

eral 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, Cindy Timchal, the all-time winningest women’s lacrosse coach in NCAA history, Stefanie Pemper, one of the all-time winningest Division III women’s basketball coaches, Dave Brandt, the all-time winningest soccer coach in NCAA history, Larry Bock, the all-time winningest coach in collegiate volleyball history, Ed DeChellis, the 2009 Big Ten Basketball Coach of the Year at Penn State, and Rick Sowell, who was a twotime America East Coach of the Year. During Gladchuk’s tenure at the Naval Academy, he has seen the Midshipmen win 75 conference titles, produce 137 All-Americans and 48 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 often-requested 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 former 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 during 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, Armed Forces and Military 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 helps 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 spends much of its time planning for the future of Division I and helps 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.

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.
v Fi le as
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 members form one of the strongest and most dedicated teaching faculties of any college or university in the United States.

The men and women of the United States Naval Academy have committed themselves to the service of our nation. During their four years in Annapolis, the Midshipmen demonstrate their willingness to give by taking part in several community service events.
w w w. N AV YS P O RT S . c o m
From outreach opportunities such as autograph sessions following athletic events, to working with underprivileged youths, 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 2010-11 academic year.
FOOTBALL While in San Diego, Calif., prior to the Poinsettia Bowl, several members of the football team attended a Make-AWish Foundation event where players and coaches spent time with the kids and their families. The bowl game and Make-A-Wish Foundation of San Diego benefit from a strong partnership as more than 500 members of “Wish Families”, including wish children, their parents and siblings, attended the game as special guests.
Seniors Andre Byrd and Ricky Dobbs took time to speak with students at several area schools. Byrd addressed students at Mount St. Joseph High School in Baltimore where he talked about the obstacles he overcame in his life to become a midshipman and a member of the Navy football team.
As he did throughout his career, Dobbs continued to make several appearances at local schools last year, explaining the importance of doing your best in school and following your dreams.
The team also continued the tradition of inviting ill and special needs children and their families to practices.
MEN’S & WOMEN’S BASKETBALL Both the men’s and women’s teams combined to hold free skills clinics for local youths. Assistant coaches and players from both teams provided instruction to over 200 kids from the Annapolis area.
The Navy men’s basketball team was out in full force, volunteering for the 2011 Maryland Special Olympics and then providing area youth with a skills clinic. The team has done a number of community-service events in the past, whether it’s conducting free camps, volunteering for the Special Olympics or speaking to groups of local youth.
Members of the men's basketball team also volunteered their time at the St. John's Episcopal School's Field Day, playing basketball with many of the youth and setting up drills and contests for the kids.

WOMEN’S SOCCER Navy women's soccer players Jessica Grupp, Katie Kelly, Alexes Lopez-Shaw and Ashlynn Soellner volunteered at a youth soccer clinic at the Excel Academy, an all-girls school in Washington, D.C. The Athletes For Hope organization helped coordinate the event, which was for first and second grade girls. SWIMMING & DIVING The swimming and diving teams continued their tradition of offering free learn-to-swim lessons to anyone in Lejeune Hall during the spring.
MEN’S TENNIS The men’s tennis team again 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 hitting the tennis courts for some instruction and competition. As a tradition each time Navy visits, every time a youth defeats a Mid, the Navy player has to immediately do 10 pushups.

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.

Now in its third decade as an all-sport conference combining academic and athletic excellence, the Patriot League sponsors championships in 23 men and women’s sports. Initially started as an NCAA Division I-AA football conference in 1986, the Patriot League became an all-sport conference in 1990 and includes American, Army, Bucknell, Colgate, Holy Cross, Lafayette, Lehigh and Navy as full members, and Fordham, Georgetown and MIT as associate members. These institutions are among the oldest and most prestigious in the nation and their alumni have and continue to play leadership roles in shaping our country.
Since 1998, the Patriot League has ranked first each year among all Division I conferences awarding athletic aid in the NCAA Graduation Rate Report. The League finished at the top spot with nearly all of its teams reporting a graduation rate of 85 percent or higher in the most recent data. In addition, 82 teams from Patriot League full-member institutions earned NCAA Academic Performance Program Public Recognition Awards after posting academic progress rate scores in the top 10 percent of all squads in their respective sports.
The Patriot League’s mission is simple, to provide successful competitive athletic experiences while maintaining high academic standards, and to prepare its student-athletes to be leaders in society.

Securing tickets to Army-Navy and Notre Dame is as easy as A ... B ... C ...
A ssure yourself tickets to the biggest
games of the year. Navy opens the season on September 3 against Delaware and plays host to Air Force on October 1 at Navy-Marine Corps Memorial Stadium. The Army-Navy football game is December 10 at FedExField in Landover, Md.
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.
B ecoming 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.
Membership in the Blue & Gold contributes to 120 years of supporting the Brigade of Midshipmen and is the Margin of Athletic Excellence funding for all 45 teams!
C lub Level seats are assured to Admiral’s Row members of the Blue & Gold.

TAX INFORMATION Since your membership includes an option to purchase tickets, 80 percent of your membership is tax deductible.
