Navy head coach Bill Kelley enters his 13th year at the helmof the Navy rifle program, posting an outstanding 127-15 (.894)record. During his time at Navy, Kelley has transformed the Midsinto a national power, competing for the NCAA title all 12 yearsthat Kelley has been in charge.

Perhaps the most telling statistic of Navy’s resurgence in rifleis its 7-5 record under Kelley against Army.

Fifteen different athletes have earned All-America honors dur-ing Kelley’s tenure, including Chris Burleson, who was a four-timeAll-American, including in both disciplines during the 2010 sea-son.

In addition to the All-Americans, Kelley has coached severalshooters to Junior Olympic and AAU victories. Three years ago,he helped a relatively unrecruited shooter, Lisa Kunzelman, earna spot on U.S. Junior World Team and a top-30 finish at the WorldChampionships in her first international competition.

A year ago, Navy placed seventh in both the smallbore and airrifle disciplines at the NCAA Championships, while winning theMAC Championship with a 9-1 overall record. The Mids reachedthe NCAA Championships for the 20th straight season and wonthe Mid-Atlantic Rifle Conference team title for the 12th straightyear, every year of Kelley’s tenure.

Two years ago, Navy placed eighth at the NCAA Champi-onships with a relatively young starting lineup, while finishing withan 8-1 overall record. Returning in 2009, the Mids placed sev-enth at the NCAA Championships, but were second in the air riflediscipline for the second straight year. The Mids posted a 17-1mark, recording the most wins in a season in school history. Inaddition, three more Mids earned All-American honors, includingair rifle first-teamer Lisa Kunzelman.

Of the five shooters in school history to earn All-American sta-tus all four years, three of them have come under Kelley’s guid-ance (Kunzelman and Sarah Bergman and Chris Schneider in2004-07).

Four years ago, Navy overcame a slow start to qualify for its17th straight NCAA Championship. The Mids finished seventh inthe smallbore competition, then flexed their muscles on day two,taking home runner-up accolades in the air rifle disciplines. Twomore Mids, Josh Albright and Lisa Kunzelman, were named first-team All-Americans.

Five years ago, senior Josh Albright became Navy’s first na-tional champion since 1996, when he won the smallbore compe-tition at the NCAA Championship, rallying in the 10-shot finals. Hehad entered the finals in second, but surged ahead with his ninthshot in the finals, then held on with his final shot for the victory.

In 2006, the Mids placed fourth overall at the NCAA Champi-onships, Navy’s third consecutive top-five finish. In addition to thehigh placing at NCAAs, Kelley guided Navy to a 9-2 record andanother MAC title.

In 2005, the Mids placed fifth at the NCAA Championship,posted an 11-0 dual-meet record and defeated Alaska-Fairbanksand Army in highly-anticipated dual meets.

In 2004, Navy rifle posted another impressive season, finish-ing third at the NCAA Championship as five Mids took home All-America honors. Kelley’s Mids posted a second-place finish in airrifle.

In his previous five years, Kelley led the Mids to a sixth-placefinish at the NCAA Championships in 2002 and a sixth-place fin-ish in the NCAA Air Rifle Championship in 2003.

In his first year on The Yard, Kelley coached Navy to an un-defeated season and a fifth-place finish at the NCAA Champi-onships.

Prior to joining the Naval Academy family, Kelley served asthe rifle coach at Cresap Rifle Club in Frederick, Md. While there,he trained countless highly successful shooters at local, regionaland national matches. He also coached the fifth-ranked finalist atthe National Junior Olympic Shooting Championship.

In 1992-95, Kelley coached the Maryland resident qualifier inthe Junior Olympic Shooting Championship, and in 1995 he co-coached the National Intermediate Junior Champion Rifle Team.

In 1996, Kelley worked on the production staff for shootingevents at the Olympic Games and World Cup in Atlanta. He re-ceived the Diploma of Honour Award from the Union Interna-tionale de Tir (international Olympic governing body) for serviceto the shooting sports that same year.

Kelley is certified by the National Rifle Association (NRA) as asmallbore rifle coach. He was selected as one of approximately 30coaches in the United States to train other coaches as a memberof the National Coach Development Staff.

He authored Shooting is Fun...At Least it Used to Be, which ad-dresses the problem of burnout among collegiate shooters andsuggests remedies. The NRA Shooting Sports USA and NRAShooting Education Update accepted the article for publication.

Kelley resides in Frederick, Md., with his wife, Liz. Kelley'syoungest son, Josh, is a 2000 graduate of the Naval Academyand was a two-time All-American in rifle. Coach Kelley is thefounder and owner of the Gun Center, a full-time retail store inFrederick, Md.

In 1850 the Naval School became the UnitedStates Naval Academy. A new curriculum went into effectrequiring midshipmen to study at the Academy for fouryears and to train aboard ships each summer. Congressauthorized the Naval Academy to begin awarding bachelorof science degrees in 1933. Today, the Academy offers 23major fields of study, a wide variety of elective coursesand advanced study and research opportunities.

From the first athletic competition played on the grid-iron in 1879 to Navy's recent triumphs, several events,people, rivalries and personalities have shaped the en-tire Naval Academy athletic program. Below is a lookat just some of the history and traditions that makeNavy one of the most storied programs in all of colle-giate athletics.

ANCHORS AWEIGH"Anchors Aweigh" was written by Lt. Charles Zimmer-mann, Musical Director of the Naval Academy in 1906,with the lyrics provided by Alfred H. Miles of the Classof 1906, as a fight song for the 1907 graduating class in-stead of the usual class march Zimmermann had com-posed for previous classes. The song made its debut atthe 1906 Army-Navy game, and when the Midshipmenwon the game, the song became traditional at this game.It gained national exposure in the 1920s and 1930s whenit was heard on the radio and was in a number of popularmovies. In 1997 a one-hour documentary on the historyof Navy football, titled "Anchors Aweigh for Honor andGlory", was produced by NFL Films. The film was deemeda success by both critics and fans alike. Here are thewords:

Stand Navy down the field,Sails set to the sky,

We'll never change our course,So Army you steer shy.Roll up the score, Navy,Anchors Aweigh,

Sail Navy down the field,And sink the Army,Sink the Army Grey

BILL THE GOATThe first recorded use of a goat mascot for Navy athleticteams was in 1893 when an animal named El Cid (TheChief) was turned over to the Brigade by young officers ofthe USS New York. El Cid helped Navy to a 6-4 triumphover Army that year. Two cats, a dog, and a carrier pigeonhave also enjoyed brief reigns as the Navy mascot, butgoats have served without interruption since 1904. BillXXXIII and XXXIV are the current mascots. They are takencare of by 15 goathandlers made up of five midshipmenfrom the first, second and third classes. The goathandlersundergo rigorous training prior to handling Bill on thefield.

BLUE & GOLDThis song was written in 1923 by Cmdr. Roy DeS. Horn,USN (Ret.) with music composed by J.W. Crosley. Follow-ing every home athletic competition, the team faces itsfans with their hands on their heart and sings the follow-ing notes:-

�� 2200 ��


Now, colleges from sea to seaMay sing of colors true;

But who has better right than weTo hoist a symbol hue?

For sailors brave in battle fair,Since fighting days of old,

Have proved the sailor's right to wearThe Navy Blue and Gold

ENTERPRISE BELLFrom the bridge of the famed World War II aircraft carrier,

it has been a part of the Naval Academy traditionsince 1950. The late Admiral Harry W. Hill, then Super-intendent, was instrumental in bringing the "E" Bell toAnnapolis. It rings during special ceremonies whenNavy scores a majority of victories over Army in anyone of the three sports seasons. The bell also ringsduring Commissioning Week for those teams that beatArmy and have not participated in a previous bell-ring-ing during the academic year. The bell is stationed infront of Bancroft Hall.

MIDSHIPMANThe word midshipman first appeared in English in the17th century in the form of the word midshipman todesignate those men who were stationed "amidships,"i.e. in the waist or middle portion of the vessel, while onduty. By 1687, however, the second 's' had beendropped to give the current form of the word. Midship-men were originally boys, sometimes as young asseven or eight, who were apprenticed to sea captains tolearn the sailor's trade.

In the early days of the American Navy, midshipmentrained aboard ship until they were eventually commis-sioned as ensigns. With the founding of the Naval Acad-emy in 1845, it became possible, as it still is, for amidshipman to enter the Navy directly from civilian life.The name of students at the Naval Academy changedseveral times between 1870 and 1902, when Congress re-stored the original title of Midshipman, and it has re-mained unchanged since.

TECUMSEHThe familiar Native American figurehead facing BancroftHall and Tecumseh Court has been an Annapolis residentsince 1866. Originally, the figurehead of the USS Delawarewas meant to portray Tamanend, the great chief of theDelawares. It developed that Tamanend was a lover ofpeace and did not strike the fancy of the Brigade. Lookingfor another name, Midshipmen referred to the figureheadas Powhatan and King Philip before finally settling onTecumseh, the fierce Shawnee chieftain who lived from1768-1813. The original wooden statue was replaced aftersome 50 years in the open weather by a durable bronzereplica, presented by the Class of 1891. It is considered agood-luck "mascot" for the midshipmen, who in timespast would throw pennies at it and offer left-handedsalutes whenever they wanted a 'favor', such as a sportswin over West Point, or spiritual help for examinations.These days it receives a fresh coat of war paint and isoften decorated in various themes during football weeksand other special occasions such as CommissioningWeek.

In his 11th year as Director of Athletics,Chet Gladchuk has overseen a renaissance ofthe Naval Academy athletic program. His admin-istrative leadership has helped lead the programto one of the most successful periods in schoolhistory.

In 2010-11, Navy won 63 percent of its con-tests and claimed the overall series against Armyfor the 18th time in the last 19 years. Navy pro-duced nine All-Americans, 11 conference ath-letes of the year, nine conference coaches of theyear and 11 conference championships.

The Mids also excelled in the classroom,ranking No. 4 in the country in graduation ratefor student-athletes (among Football Bowl Subdi-vision schools) and all 24 of Navy’s NCAA spon-sored varsity sports rank above the nationalaverage in the Academic Progress Report, in-cluding five teams with perfect scores. Navy hadfive Academic All-Americans, four Patriot LeagueScholar Athletes of the Year and an NCAA Post-graduate Scholarship winner. Six of the top 15Naval Academy graduates and 28 of the top 100graduates in the Class of 2011 were involvedwith varsity or club athletics.

The football team had another successfulseason in 2010, posting a 9-4 record and playingin a school-record eighth-consecutive bowl game. The Mids beat Army fora series-record ninth-consecutive year and defeated Notre Dame for thethird time in four seasons.

Other teams who flourished in 2010-11 included the women’s basket-ball team winning the Patriot League Championship and advancing to theNCAA Tournament for the first time in school history; the rifle team placedseventh at the NCAA Championship; the women’s lacrosse team ad-vanced to the NCAA Tournament for the second-straight season; intercol-legiate sailing placed ninth at the ICSA Nationals; the baseball team wonthe Patriot League Regular Season and Tournament titles and participatedin the NCAA Tournament for the first time since 2002; while the water polo,men’s cross country, men’s swimming & diving, men’s indoor track & field,women’s indoor track & field and women’s rowing all won conference titles.

Gladchuk’s efforts have been recognized on a national level as well,as the Division IA Athletic Directors Association named him the 2005Bobby Dodd Athletic Director of the Year. The award is presented in recog-nition of an athletic director’s support and commitment toward the suc-cessful advancement of the department, most specifically in the sport offootball. Additionally, he was recognized by the Secretary of the Navy forhis contributions and service to the Navy and the Naval Academy with theSuperior Public Service Award to the Department of the Navy.

Gladchuk has been able to parlay Navy’s athletic success into an ex-clusive television deal with CBS ports Network that has increased Navy’stelevision exposure both in the United States and internationally. CBSSports Network, the first 24-hour college sports network, televises everyNavy home and select neutral site football games (excluding Notre Dameand Army which are televised nationally by CBS), as well as other Midship-men men's and women's athletic events, original programming and docu-mentaries centered on the storied Navy athletic program. The long-term,multi-media agreement includes internet streaming, broadband and video-on-demand rights and high definition rights. A major part of the agreementwas that all home football games would be played on Saturday for the con-venience of the Navy alumni. Navy sports are seen all over the world withthe international distribution of Navy programming, especially to the troopsserving abroad. Navy’s contract with CBS Sports Network runs through2018.

Gladchuk has also added radio giantsWBAL (1090 AM) in Baltimore and WFED (1500AM, 1050 AM, 820 AM) in WashingtonD.C./Northern Virginia to Navy’s radio network.

WBAL Radio, which is also the home ofthe Ravens, is Maryland's dominant and mostpowerful radio station. Since 1925, generationsof Marylanders have turned to WBAL Radio fornews, weather, thought-provoking discussionsand sports. As Maryland's only 50,000-watt AMstation, WBAL's signal travels substantially fur-ther than any other station in the state.

WFED Radio, which is also the home ofthe Washington Nationals, is a 50,000-watt sta-tion that will air a minimum of 10 regular-seasonfootball games. WFED is your source for fed-eral news covering both the Federal Govern-ment and those who do business with thegovernment.

Since being introduced as the Academy's28th Director of Athletics on Sept. 4, 2001, Glad-chuk has pressed forward on numerous frontswith energy and vision. From the hiring of PaulJohnson and Ken Niumatalolo as head footballcoaches to the renovation of Navy-Marine CorpsMemorial Stadium, Gladchuk has made im-provements in several key areas that will prove

more success on the athletic fields for years to come. Recent headcoaching hires such as Bill Roberts in men’s swimming, John Morrison inwomen’s swimming, Paul Kostacopoulos in baseball, Keith Puryear inwomen’s tennis, Cindy Timchal, the all-time winningest women’s lacrossecoach in NCAA history, Stefanie Pemper, one of the all-time winningest Di-vision III women’s basketball coaches, Dave Brandt, the all-time win-ningest soccer coach in NCAA history, Larry Bock, the all-time winningestcoach in collegiate volleyball history, Ed DeChellis, the 2009 Big Ten Bas-ketball Coach of the Year at Penn State, and Rick Sowell, who was a two-time America East Coach of the Year.

During Gladchuk’s tenure at the Naval Academy, he has seen theMidshipmen win 75 conference titles, produce 137 All-Americans and 48Academic All-Americans.

Gladchuk has also worked tirelessly to bring back school spirit, work-ing in conjunction with school officials to encourage midshipmen to attendevents for all sports.

He has embraced the local community and alumni base, and is anoften-requested speaker, visiting areas all over the country as he sharesthe vision of the Naval Academy and the Naval Academy Athletic Associa-tion.

Gladchuk’s biggest impact on the Naval Academy has been the $42million renovation of Navy-Marine Corps Memorial Stadium where underhis leadership the stadium was completely refurbished over a four-yeartime frame. The addition of 6,500 permanent seats on the sidelines and inthe end zones, 32 luxury boxes, dropping the field eight feet and movingthe sidelines closer, two video scoreboards, a memorial plaza, upgradedrestroom and concession areas, a perimeter walking path, new lighting, anew sound system, landscaping the grounds and storm water manage-ment highlight the list of renovations. Gladchuk has worked closely withthe city, county, state and neighborhood associations to ensure propercommunication and sensitivity to issues that benefit both the NAAA andcommunity at large. The NAAA was awarded the Green Star award by for-mer Annapolis Mayor Ellen Moyer for commitment to the environment dur-ing the ongoing renovation of Navy-Marine Corps Memorial Stadium.

Gladchuk and the NAAA have also teamed up with the Naval Acad-emy Foundation to raise over $75 million in private giving for facilities such

�� 2244 ��


as the Brigade Sports Complex (hockey and tennis), Max Bishop Stadium (base-ball), varsity squash courts, various team locker rooms and a number of practice fa-cilities.

Other highlights during Gladchuk’s tenure at the Naval Academy include therecent renegotiation of the Army-Navy contract which resulted in over $46 million tothe two schools over the next eight years, scheduling Maryland, Notre Dame, OhioState and Army at M&T Bank Stadium in Baltimore to promote Navy football in thecommunity, negotiating the extension of the Navy-Notre Dame football game televi-sion contract with CBS through 2018 and negotiating bowl deals with the Houston,Emerald, Poinsettia, Meineke Car Care, EagleBank, Texas, Armed Forces and Mili-tary Bowls.

Gladchuk is heavily involved with NCAA and Patriot League committees. Herecently was selected to serve on the NCAA Leadership Council, which is one of thehighest NCAA appointments an athletic director can realize. The council helps setthe Division I legislative agenda and advises the NCAA regarding major legislativeissues being considered. The primary responsibility of the council is to identifythose issues on the horizon that can impact Division I and intercollegiate athleticsas a whole and spends much of its time planning for the future of Division I andhelps set the course for the future. Gladchuk is also on the NACDA (National Asso-ciation of Collegiate Athletic Directors) Executive Committee and has served as theChairman of the Executive Committee in the Patriot League and a member of theNCAA Olympic Sport Liaison Committee.

Gladchuk came to the Naval Academy from the University of Houston, wherehe had been the Director of Athletics since July 18, 1997. Recognized as one of thenation’s top leaders in intercollegiate athletics management, he guided the Cougarsto 19 Conference USA Championships, while making significant strides in the aca-demic success of their student-athletes, gender equity and fiscal management.

Before Houston, Gladchuk was the Director of Intercollegiate Athletics, Intra-murals and Recreation for seven years at his alma mater, Boston College. UnderGladchuk, Boston College emerged as one of the NCAA’s elite programs of the1990s winning numerous Big East and NCAA Championships. The school’s gradua-tion rate for all student-athletes was over 90 percent and the Eagles won the Col-lege Football Association’s Academic Achievement Award for the highest graduationrates among all Division I schools in three of his last five years at Boston College.Gladchuk led the Alumni Stadium expansion effort, which resulted in a $35 millionimprovement to the football stadium.

Prior to rejoining Boston College, Gladchuk served as AD at Tulane Universityfrom 1987-90. During his tenure, he directed the reinstatement of the Green Wavebasketball program to Division I status. In addition, he oversaw the construction ofnew facilities for the athletics administration as well as baseball, track and field andtennis teams after a $25 million athletics campaign was successfully completed.

From 1985-87, he served as Associate AD at Syracuse University, heading op-erations, NCAA compliance, financial aid and facility operations.

Gladchuk lettered in football at Boston College and graduated with honors inbusiness management in 1973. He earned a master’s in sports administration fromthe University of Massachusetts-Amherst in 1974, where he began his career in in-tercollegiate athletics, including serving for seven years as Director of GeneralPhysical Education, Assistant and Associate Athletic Director for the university.

FIRST-RATE FACULTY & STAFFThe Naval Academy's philosophy of educationstresses attention to individual students by highlyqualified faculty members who are strongly committedto teaching. Classes are small, with an average size offewer than 18 students and a student-faculty ratio of8:1. All courses at the Naval Academy are taught andgraded by faculty members, not by graduate assistants.

Our 600-member faculty is an integrated group of officersand civilians in nearly equal numbers. Officers bringfresh ideas and experiences from operational units andstaffs of the Navy and Marine Corps. The academy's civil-ian faculty members give continuity to the educationalprogram and form a core of professional scholarship andteaching experience. Working together closely, these mili-tary and civilian faculty members form one of thestrongest and most dedicated teaching faculties of anycollege or university in the United States.

MAJORSStudents at the Naval Academy can select one of 38 differ-ent majors within 23 fields of study. The 23 fields of studyare grouped into three different divisions: Division of En-gineering and Weapons (aerospace engineering, com-puter engineering, electrical engineering, generalengineering, mechanical engineering, naval architecture,ocean engineering, systems engineering), Division ofMath and Science (chemistry, computer science, generalscience, information technology, mathematics, oceanog-raphy, physics) and the Division of Humanities and SocialScience (Arabic, Chinese, economics, English, history, po-litical science, quantitative economics). In addition tograduating with a Bachelor’s of Science, students can at-tain a minor in one of seven different languages.

Students who excel at the Naval Academy have many op-portunities to challenge and advance themselves throughseveral special programs -- Trident Scholars, Honors Pro-grams, and Voluntary Graduate Education Program(VGEP).

GRADUATION SUCCESS RATEFor the sixth year in a row, the United States Naval Acad-emy ranks among nation’s leaders for graduating NCAAstudent-athletes on the Division I level. Navy graduated100 percent of its student-athletes in 10 of the 20 NCAAsports reported on and averaged an overall rate of 96percent for student-athletes in all sports – the fourth-highest mark nationally among Football Bowl Subdivi-sion schools.

LOWE'S SENIOR CLASS AWARDRicky Dobbs ('11) was named the 2010 Lowe's SeniorCLASS Award winner for the Football Bowl Subdivi-sion, becoming the second Navy student-athlete towin the award.

The bowl game andMake-A-Wish Foundation of San Diego benefit from astrong partnership as more than 500 members of “WishFamilies”, including wish children, their parents andsiblings, attended the game as special guests.

Seniors Andre Byrd and Ricky Dobbs took time tospeak with students at several area schools. Byrd ad-dressed students at Mount St. Joseph High School inBaltimore where he talked about the obstacles heovercame in his life to become a midshipman and amember of the Navy football team.

As he did throughout his career, Dobbs continued tomake several appearances at local schools last year,explaining the importance of doing your best inschool and following your dreams.

The team also continued the tradition of inviting illand special needs children and their families topractices.

The Naval Academy is located in historic Annapolis, thecapital of the State of Maryland. Annapolis was founded in1640 as Anne Arundel Town and later became the firstpeacetime capital city of the United States of America in1783.

Annapolis, named to honor Queen Anne of England, wasgranted a royal charter as a city in 1708. Annapolis canalso lay claim to having been a capital of the UnitedStates. From November 1783 to August 1784, the Conti-nental Congress met in the State House. It was here thatthey accepted George Washington’s resignation as com-mander-in-chief and ratified the Treaty of Paris, whichended the Revolutionary War.

The colonial heritage of Annapolis is still evident as thecity boasts more buildings from the 1700s than any othercity in the country.

The heart of downtown Annapolis has also been desig-nated a National Historic District. Many fine examples ofcolonial architecture, including the State House, Ham-mond-Harwood House, Chase-Lloyd House and theWilliam Paca House and Gardens, are open to visitors.

In August, 2009, Annapolis was named a Top Ten finalistfor the International Award for Livable Communities, acompetition focused on creating livable communitiesthrough sound environmental practices.

Annapolis is located on the western shore of the Chesa-peake Bay, the largest estuary in the United States. TheChesapeake provides natural environs, sightseeing, sail-ing, fishing and more, helping Annapolis become the sail-ing capital of the world. The water-lover will alsorevel in the fact that Maryland has nearly 4,000miles of shoreline – more than any other state.

Within 30 minutes of Annapolis lies both Wash-ington, D.C., and Baltimore, providing entertain-ment and sightseeing opportunities for residentsand tourists alike.
