Hi CristalLee. There's another USNA appointment from TX-14. I don't know what kind of nomination he got though. He's a recruited athlete from our same HS.
Hmmm... makes me wonder. Our MOC had an academy forum this weekend and also published his "official" congratulatory statement on his website to the Three appointees, one from West Point (athlete & smart), one to USAFA (athlete, football star at small town high school - no mention of grades in interview I saw), and one to USNA (smart kid, non-athletic) - not saying that the athlete's weren't smart too. But I have no idea if they are recruited or not (or if they got charged to the MOC or not), the interview I saw with the USAFA said that he has been in contact with the USAFA for 16 months. When I spoke with MOC rep, she said that DS was highly competitive and encouraged him to apply again next year and they'd be happy to nominate him again (probably - there are never guarantees).
As much as i've mostly given up... it's still March and I can't help to be a little hopeful each time I open the mailbox. Until I get that TWE - i'll probably have a glimmer of hope in the back of my mind.
