#6 - Calm Confidence

The 2007 Bears men’s basketball team improbably won the NEWMAC Championship. The 2008 Bears had greater expectations.

This episode recounts the Coast Guard’s pursuit of a repeat title. One player returns. A newcomer from far away makes a big impact. And with the Magnificent 7 recruiting class now all nearing the end of their journey, we look at what it’s like to be a senior (first-class) at the Coast Guard Academy.
