Welcome to Navy Sports Central, the official podcast of the Navy Sports Nation!

In today's Deep Dive segment, we will visit with two members of the Navy Athletics Hall of Fame. You will get a first hand account on how the Heavyweight Rowing team won the national championship in 1984. 

We will discuss the Navy Rowing program in the early '80s, the make up of the team that eventually won it all, and some of the adversity they dealt with along the way. 

In addition to that, I will update you on the Army-Navy Star Series, and we'll have our Question of the Day and Mid Watch segments as well. So please join us for a very entertaining conversation with two members of one of the best crews the Navy Rowing program has ever produced.
