President Trump recognized the winners of the 2024 Commander-in-Chief trophy, the Navy Midshipmen Football team at the White House. View full presentation below!

“The 2024 Navy Midshipmen football team represented the United States Naval Academy in the American Athletic Conference (AAC) during the 2024 NCAA Division I FBS football season. The Midshipmen were led by Brian Newberry in his second year as the head coach. The Midshipmen played their home games at Navy–Marine Corps Memorial Stadium in Annapolis, Maryland.

Despite being picked to finish eleventh in the American Athletic Conference, the Midshipmen instead exceeded their low expectations, finishing 10-3 for their first winning season, bowl appearance and win since 2019.“
