    Wrestling at Navy

    Not sure where your information is coming from related to the atmosphere being "not good" at Navy?? Your contact and or information is absolutely wrong. IMO!! Coach Kolat and his team are Outstanding and he really helps build these young men mentally, physically and to compete at the D1...

    Coach Ken is not coming back for 2023.

    My opinion only!!! We need a coach that has more than 3 plays. A-gap run, A-gap run, sweep and then punt is not a receipt for success, consistent winning or recruiting D-1 military academy academic athletes we need. Army coach seems to coach out of the same play book as Navy. If Army coach...

    Rising Junior w/ Peanut Allergy

    Our DS had to have a waiver for his peanut allergy. Likely 99.8% you will not be medically approved by DODMERB and will need the same waiver, IF (big if)the academy requests one. Go to DODMERB’s website and read “Questions on the process”. This will help a lot. Without getting into the weeds...

    Getting Cold Feet

    What’s the old saying??? “It’s a great place to be from!” Not so great when you’re there. Definitely won’t be sunshine and rainbows. You’ll have fun at times, but as mentioned above… “Embrace the SUCK!” You’ll be fine. Most your peers will be going through the same thing. If it was easy...

    Tickets for Army vs Navy Game Dec 10th In Philly

    We just got our tickets and can’t wait. We have always been “Go Navy! Beat Army!” as I’m a Navy vet and my oldest is a USNA 2024 Mid. Now my youngest received and accepted his 2026 USMA Appointment, so I’ll now cheer for both. Go NAVY, Go ARMY!!!…..(beat Army!😉)

    Call from Congressman

    Yep, as stated above there is nothing to worry about. She has her appointment. DS #2 just went through this exact same process last week with USMA. Congressman or Senator calls your kid with the good news the rest comes shortly after. CONGRATULATIONS to you DD!

    Peanut Allergy Waiver Denied - What Next?

    Skin prick test, IgE lab test and an oral peanut consumption test. Those are the three gold standards that a candidate must sufficiently pass with the oral consumption being the most important, from my understanding. And even then that’s not a guarantee to have a waiver granted.🤷🏼‍♂️

    AMI - Wavier timeline question?

    Just to clarify to you both above, are you asking and answering related to once your DS or DD has submitted the specific academy waiver requested items to DoDMERB or the initial DoDMERB processing request of items needed for DoDMERB makes their initial medical decision?
