Re: Come on man
actually Navy has a good hockey team. Its club level on the east coast. The level of play in the club level out there is like D3. Very good level of play, just not a varsity sport. Like other sports at the Naval Academy the coaches recruit and can pull strings to get a kid in that otherwise might not get in at the prestigious academy.

God bless our Air Force. Kids enrolled in the Air Force should be committed to the Air Force and not hockey.
Lakeviewing boo hoo you probably have not done anything for anybody other than yourself or your Country to make such a dumb comment. Let me see here the kids get to play hockey get a great education oh ya and a guaranteed job after graduation is there any other college out there that offers that package? Yep West Point, and the Naval Academy well they do not have a hockey team. there is no better offer out there than a military academy because none of the others give them jobs once they graduate.
So you mean to tell me you would not allow your kid to play for Air Force, wow such arrogance I suppose you feel you are entitled for some reason because a family member served a hundred years a go or something. Nice touch adding God bless the Air Force, but I do not think they need your blessing. Now if a kid is truly playing the game for the love of it they should welcome any offers that are going to put them approx. $250,000 a head of any other student athlete in college sports.
Proudly serving since 1993 in the Army. One last thing West point was voted the #1 college for education by Forbes magazine and you can play hockey too.![]()
