Описание: This book is written for those of us who love the US Naval Academy and especially the Navys Midshipmen Football Team. Youll like all the stories from the Academys founding om Oct 10, 1845 as the Naval School by Secretary of the Navy George Bancroft just under 180 years ago, to the beginning of American football in 1869, to the first Navy football game in 1879... and all through the great Navy football teams of the 20th century to today with a revitalized Navy Football Team under coach Ken Niumatalolo..You will learn that like no other football team, the US Navy Midshipmen are fierce and passionate competitors. From the stadium to the classroom to the research lab, the US Navy Midshipmen always play to win. You will learn that Navys first official football game was in 1879 even before American football had been completely defined. They tied the Baltimore Athletic Club. It was not until 1890 that Navy played Army. They beat the Army 24-0 in this first game and Army has never forgotten it . Army and Navy have been beating each other up each year ever since 1890 at their annual Army-Navy Game. To both teams a victory against the other in the Army-Navy Game is more important than even a great season. Youll also learn that First Classman J.H. Robinson was the first to get football going at Navy, but back then it was more like a combo of soccer and rugby and it used for training and not for competition. First Classman William John Maxwell is credited with getting the current football program stated at Navy. Just one game was played to a 0-0 tie v Baltimores Athletic Club in 180 but over thirteen hundred games have been played since.From here, the book moves you one Navy coach at time through the immortals-Frank Berrien, Bill Ingram, Paul Dashiell, Doug Howard, Eddie Erdelatz, Wayne Hardin, Paul Johnson, and then on to todays great coach, Ken NiumataloloThe history of Navy Football as told here is just fascinating. This book captures the many great moments and the contributions of each of the 37coaches and standout players such as Navys two Heisman winners, Joe Bellino, and Roger Staubach. Of course, there are other greats such as Ed Sprinkle, Bob Hoernschemeyer, Mike Wahle, and Phil McConkey.In this book, we look at every game in every season and we take the reader through great chapters about all the Navy teams with great stories and accounts of 138 seasons worth of great games (1323games) with many great moments. This book is your finest source for a great read on your favorite service academy college football team (Midshipmen). It is the closest thing to an all-encompassing, full-blown encyclopedia of Navy Football-a blow by blow history-with tales of the great moments. We capture all the action and all the memorable moments of Navy football. This book is for your reading pleasure, but it also can be a great reference tool for when you want to see how a particular Navy game in any year happened to turn out. If you are a Navy Football fan. you will not want to put this book down.
