Naval Academy Student-Athlete Spotlight: Kate Lee

Описание: Navy Women's Tennis junior Kate "The Clincher" Lee is this week's Student-Athlete Spotlight! Presented by Northrop Grumman.

The United States Naval Academy offers 36 varsity sports.

Navy Football offers a unique college football game day atmosphere and pageantry that dates back to 1879. The Midshipmen completed their 143rd season of competition in 2023. They were led by first-year head coach Brian Newberry, the 40th leader in Navy Football history, who was appointed by Director of Athletics Chet Gladchuk. Newberry had served as defensive coordinator from 2019-2022. The team finished 5-7.

The Mids pride themselves on dominance against service academy foe and archrival Army Black Knights in the Star Series. Navy is 39-4-2 against Army in the annual series over the past 45 years.

Navy has cultivated a dynasty in its NCAA Division I Olympic, distance and endurance sports. Among its 17 conference championships in the 2022-23 season, the USNA swept the Patriot League titles in Cross Country (Men's and Women's), Swimming & Diving (Men's and Women's), Women's Rowing, and Indoor Track & Field and Outdoor Track & Field (both Men's and Women's). Navy has won 147 Patriot League titles since joining the conference in the 1991-92 campaign. On March 1, Gladchuk announced that Navy would sponsor Women's Triathlon as its 36th varsity sport, beginning competition in the fall.

Men's Rugby compiled an 18-0 record and clinched the Collegiate Rugby Association of America (CRAA) Division 1-A National Championship.
