M - PSU Recap

Victory vs PSU!


The #1 ranked Navy Men avenged last year's ECS shield loss beating the Penn State Nittany Lions 47-10. The Midshipman rattled off 47 unanswered points before PSU scored a converted try late in the contest. It was amazing to be hosted at Segra Field by Old Glory DC as the curtain raiser for the MLR match.


Up next for both the men and women, BEAT ARMY!
