On Sept. 21, the Navy sprint football team had to swallow a bitter pill when it lost a close contest against archrival Army.
Seppi Ortman booted a 17-yard field goal with 4:55 remaining in the game as Army pulled out a 17-14 victory at Navy-Marine Corps Memorial Stadium. Making the narrow home loss even tougher was the fact Navy missed one field goal and had another blocked.
Navy avenged that loss when it mattered most, beating Army 24-10 in the Collegiate Sprint Football League championship game, held last Saturday night at Tome Valley Sports Complex in Hillburn, N.
