    Varsity Athletics: Are they worth it?

    While your question seems to suggest that you may be waffling on your commitment to your sport - which is fine, many college aged athletes do and everyone retires eventually - I would suggest that Navy is actually a great place to stay committed to varsity athletics. I suggest this because...

    I have a related question. I am a candidate for the Class of 2020 and have completed all of the appointment and nomination application activities. I'm an athletic recruit and completed my official recruiting visit to USNA earlier this Fall. At this point I am in the waiting game with so many...
