E-Trials 2020!

This year in culmination and recognition of a grueling first year at the Naval Academy, the class of ‘23 (and others!) completed the first ever virtual Sea Trials. This 7-stage physical challenge spanned 8 hours, and included an abundance of almost every body weight exercise imaginable, cardio, and best of all, water jug exercises (jexercises?).

Also a special thanks to 3rd Co’s fearless E-trials staff:

CC: Josh Gable
CO: Jake Piñon
Squad Leaders:
Brooke West,
Harrison Helmich,
Liz Hauschild,
and Ryan Le

This weekend was Croquet!! The Annapolis Cup, better known as just Croquet, is an annual game that the Midshipman play against the Saint John's Johnnies. Although the Mids lost 4-1 this year, the Herd was definitely the most stylish group of people there.

This week's Herdian of the Week is Gabby Tath. Gabby is one of the very few Computer Engineering majors on the yard and is from Dubuque, Iowa. Gabby is also a member of the women's Club Softball Team. As a pitcher for the team, Gabby helped Navy Softball win a national championship this past year. Here what a company mate had to say about Gabby below.

"On top of being a Computer Engineering major and an awesome softball player, Gabby makes time to be with the company in any way she can. Whether it would be a trip to King Hall for dinner, Blue and Gold, or a Smash tournament, you can count on Gabby to be there! She has softball games almost every weekend, yet she manages to hang out with members of the Herd any way she can. Gabby is an awesome, humble, and kind friend to everyone in and out of the company."

Shoutout to 1/C Tervor Givens for catching the dodgeball to secure the victory for the Third Company Dodgeball team. Third Company beat out an undefeated Twenty-Sixth company to win the intramural dodgeball championships. Read below for a recap of the game by 1/C MArc Descour.

"Trevor Givens's (Sr., Decateur, Al.) final catch will go down as the most historic moment recorded in Navy Intramural history as it closed out a 7-game series win for 3rd Company over 26th Company in the championship match Tuesday afternoon at MacDonough Racquetball Courts. #3 ranked 3rd Company (10-3), having previously lost to #1 ranked 26th Company (13-0) in the regular season, shocked spectators and sports analysts alike with their upset victory to bring home the trophy.

3rd Company Dodgeball's Class of 2019 — Trevor Givens (Decateur, Al.), Team Captain Marc Descour (Herndon, VA), Chris Ventrano (Little Rock, AK), Shawn Picciott (Syracuse, NY), Zach Abey (Pasedena, MD), Ryan Heinz (Las Vegas, NV), Brandon Canlas (Dallas, TX), and Kohsuke Tashiro (Detriot, MI) — began their final intramural season with one goal in mind: Bring 3rd Company a championship. 26th Company proved to be a formidable opponent, featuring a roster of two former Navy Varsity Baseball pitchers. 3rd Company’s own former Varsity athlete, Abey, held his own, setting a single-game intramural record of 14 kills.

"This win is a culmination of a whole season's hard work," said Abey. "The last time I saw dedication and camaraderie like this was the Brotherhood"

1st Team All-American Ryan Heinz (12 Kills, 2 Catches) continued his record-breaking season. Heinz averaged 9 Kills per game throughout the action-packed 13 game regular season. Abey and Givens received 2nd Team All-American honors. Tashiro received a Patriot League honorable mention for sportsmanship.

Juniors Jacob Baez (Annapolis, Md) and Charlie Thigpen (Tuscaloosa, Al) will take the reigns of the dodgeball team next season. "Its a tough act to follow," said Baez. "But we are looking forward to the challenge". "

This week, we are doing something different. 2/C Reilly Treat is currently studying abroad in Morocco and studying Arabic. Here is an update of how she is doing and what a typical day for her is like.
"Life in Morocco is easily divided into two parts, the week and the weekend. School days are pretty routine; breakfast, school, working out, dinner, and homework. The program at my school consists of the five Midshipmen who are here, so I see them a lot. There is a larger program in the other half of the school from big universities all over America, but we barely see them. Since I am with three youngsters and the other 2/C is studying French, I am the only student in two of my classes. This is made even stranger by the school's policy to have two professors per class, making my teacher/student ratio 2:1. If I don't walk to school, I take a taxi, which is about $.70, a pretty good fair compared to uber prices. Every Wednesday morning, I take a ceramics class at an Art Institute and every Thursday morning, I volunteer at an Orphanage to research for my Study Abroad Portfolio, which is due when I return. The weekends are when my life gets a little exciting. I try to travel every weekend to take advantage of the time I have in Morocco. My favorite activities have been surfing, visiting a traveling fair, and seeing the goats who climb in the trees. My favorite city so far is Essaouira, in Southern Spain, but that could change after I visit Marrakesh in a few weekends and ride some camels. I live with three older ladies, my host mom, her sister, and their mother. They are very nice and cook me dinner every night."
