2014-15 SQUASH
I
Craig Dawson | Head Coach Craig 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 14 seasons as head coach. Additionally, the Navy squash program has enjoyed just nine 20-win seasons over the course of its 66-year history with Dawson-led teams conquering the 20-win plateau seven times including five of the last six seasons. Navy broke the school record for wins in 2008-09 by turning in a 27-8 record. In 2009-10, the Mids followed up with a 26-8 mark, in 2010-11 they posted a 23-10 record, in 2011-12 they recorded a 23-7 record and in 2012-13 Navy produced a 25-9 record. The seven losses in 2011-12 were the fewest by Navy since the 2004-05 campaign when it posted a 24-7 record. Dawson became Navy’s all-time winningest coach on Dec. 1, 2012, by leading the Mids to an 8-1 win over Tufts. He enters his 15th season as the Mids’ head coach boasting a 290-118 (.711) record. Navy played an abbreviated schedule a year ago, seeing action in just 23 matches where they put together a 15-8 mark and placed 15th at the CSA Team Championship. For the third straight year, Andrew McGuinness and Jim Kacergis paced the team as the No. 1 and 2 players. Kacergis, sophomore Mitch Bottini and rookie Reed Whitney were atop the leader board in wins with 16 apiece. In 2012-13, Navy was anchored once again by a pair of plebes - Mitch Bottini and Bill Kacergis - who paced the Mids with 27 wins apiece. It’s tied as the second-most wins in a single season by a player during Dawson’s tenure. Team captain John Richey concluded his career with a 92-32 record, becoming only the third player in school history to win 90 matches and finishing tied for second on the Mids’ career wins list. Despite fielding one of the program’s youngest teams in recent memory (five plebes playing among the top five), the Mids showed great promise during the 2011-12 campaign which featured a 5-4 win over ninth-ranked Western Ontario. It was Navy’s first win over the Canadian team. Navy came up just short against highly-touted teams Williams, Middlebury and Penn, dropping each of the matches (consecutively) by a 5-4 margin. Meanwhile, Navy placed 13th at the CSA Team Championship, rallying from an opening-round 5-4 loss to Columbia. The Mids came back to deal Brown (8-1) and Middlebury (5-4) losses. Anchored by the program’s all-time wins leader Allan Lutz, Navy concluded the 2010-11 campaign with a 23-10 record, including an impressive 13-3 record in matches played at home. Navy opened up the season on a nine-match winning streak before falling to seventh-ranked Dartmouth on the road. The Mids closed out the year with a tough slate, dropping matches to No. 8 Franklin & Marshall and No. 3 Princeton to end the regular season before finishing 16th at the CSA Team Championship. Meanwhile, Lutz closed out his career with a 99-36 record, capturing the most wins in school history by pushing past former teammate and record holder Nils Mattsson. The Mids 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. 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,

With the help of the Naval Academy administration, better than 2,300 Midshipmen and fans packed Halsey Field House to set a tournament record and cheer on Tucker George. Both Sawin and Lutz closed out the season by each taking the consolation title in their respective brackets at the individual championship. Meanwhile, Dawson led Mids to a third-place finish at the 2008 Women’s College Squash Association Howe Cup Championship. One of six emerging women’s teams, it was the first time Navy has sent a women’s team to compete in the championship. In 2006-07, the Mids put together back-to-back wins over Brown and Bates before dropping a 5-4 heart-breaker against Cornell to finish 10th at the College Squash Association’s Team Championship, the Mids’ best finish under Dawson’s leadership. Additionally, for the first time in program history, Navy sent a pair of players into the championship match of the Molloy Division at the CSA Individual Championship. Jeff Sawin looked to have the match sewn up when teammate Nils Mattsson, a freshman, rallied for the title. Navy concluded its season with a 23-8 team record, while seven players on the ladder turned in 20-plus wins, including Sawin who boasted a team-best 28-4 record. Navy was paced by youth in 2005-06, fielding three freshmen and three sophomores among its starting ladder. The Mids handled the pressure well, producing a 19-8 record and a 15th-place finish at the NISRA Championship. Once again, Dawson helped produce two top-100 players, including Tucker George who was ranked No. 47 and Jeff Sawin at 83rd. Dawson led Navy to a 24-7 record in 2004-05, establishing a school record for wins in a season. Three players ended the season ranked among the top 75 in the country, including freshmen sensations Tucker George and Jeff Sawin, ranked 41st and 71st, respectively. In 2003-04, the Mids produced a 15-9 record and finished the year ranked No. 16. Seniors Edson Greenwood and David Haile were among the country’s top 60, as Greenwood ranked No. 47 and Haile was 58th. Meanwhile, fellow senior Kinleong Ho was awarded a Rhodes Scholarship by his home country of Singapore. Navy not only tacked on two more wins to its victory total (19-7) during the 2001-02 campaign, it was the recipient of the 2001-02 Team Sportsmanship Coaches Award at the NISRA Championship Banquet. The Midshipmen were recognized by the member schools of NISRA who voted to award Navy this prestigious honor. It’s the second time in the last four years in which Navy has received the honor, as it was awarded the same recognition in 1998. In season two, he paved the way for the Mids to finish a step higher at the NISRA Team Championship with an 11th-place finish. A week later, Dawson brought three Mids to the NISRA Individual Championship where Andy McCann, David Haile and Edson Greenwood all played exceptionally well. In his inaugural season as head coach, Dawson led the Midshipmen to a 17-7 record and a 12th-place finish at the NISRA Team Championship. Meanwhile, he helped tutor former team captain Andy McCann to a top-50 individual ranking by season’s end. While playing both tennis and squash for Navy, Dawson was an All-America squash player and an All-East singles and doubles player. Additionally, he was the captain of both teams during his senior season.

Andy McCann | Assistant Coach
TM
Andy McCann, who joined the program as an assistant coach in the fall of 2014, is no stranger to the Naval Academy, nor the Navy squash program. The 2002 Naval Academy graduate was a four-year letterwinner for Craig Dawson’s Midshipmen squash program, who served as team captain his senior year. Additionally, McCann is one of just five players in program history to win the USS Barb Squash Racquets Perpetual Trophy three or more times, winning it in each of his last three seasons (2000-01-02). Upon graduation, McCann spent 11 years as a surface warfare officer in the United States Navy. Aboard the USS Underwood FFG-36 based out of Mayport, Fla., he served as Repair Division Officer and Damage Control Assistant and served deployments to the Mediterranean Sea, Baltic Sea, Caribbean Sea and Persian Gulf.
McCann’s Shore Duty tour was in Newport, R.I. at the Surface Warfare Officer School where he earned his Master Training Specialist. In his First Department Head Tour, he served as Operations Officer aboard the USS Howard DDG-83 out of San Diego and was deployed to the 7th Fleet Area of Responsibility (AOR). In his Second Department Head Tour, he was aboard the USS Shiloh in Yokosuka, Japan, where he was also the Operations Officer and again deployed to the 7th Fleet AOR. McCann transitioned out of the Navy in May of 2013 and currently works for Client Solution Architects as a Level II Consultant in Washington D.C.
Ted Berger | Assistant Coach After serving as a volunteer coach with the Navy varsity squash program for better than 20 years, Ted Berger joined the Navy squash staff in 2002-03 as a full-time assistant coach. During his 20-year (1972-1992) tour in Annapolis, Berger worked alongside three standout coaches in Art Potter (1972-73 through 1976-77), Bobby Bayliss (1977-78 through 1980-81) and Dave Brown (1981-82 through 1997-98). Now working alongside his fourth coach, Craig Dawson, the duo have a unique relationship. When Berger came on board as a volunteer in 1972, Dawson was a senior at the Academy and captain of the squash team.

USS Barb Squash Racquets Perpetual Trophy The USS Barb Squash Racquets Perpetual Trophy has been awarded since 1958 with 37 different midshipmen winning the weeklong, round-robin tournament. Fourteen of the 37 have been multi-year winners, including Tucker George who became the first player in program history to win the trophy all four years (2004-05-06-07). Additionally, three-time winners include All-Americans Spencer Wall (1984-85-86) and Jamie Slough (1992-93-94), along with Andy McCann (2000-01-02). 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. -- portions of the write up attributed to Earl Kelly, The Capital

The Bowen Cup 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 Bud Parker (‘55) and Robin Pirie (‘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.

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 second-most 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 Thorpe-Clark. “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 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.”
