    2024 Navy Football Captains Will Be Announced on April 28

    The Naval Academy football program announced Wednesday that annual Navy Football First Class Tribute will take place on Sunday, April 28 at Annapolis' Alumni Hall.

    In addition to celebrating key moments and players from the 2023 season, Brian Newberry and company will name captains for the 2024 season.

    Navy's 2023 captains were defensive end Jacob Busic, wide receiver Jayden Umbarger offensive lineman Lirion Murtezi, and linebacker Will Harbour. This marked just the third time in program history that Navy had four team captains for a season. This also happened in 2019 and 2021.

    2023 marked the Navy program's first season under head coach Brian Newberry. They finished 5-7 with a loss to archrival Army to end the season. 

    Navy are set to begin spring practices on March 5 with a practice open to the public inside Navy-Marine Corps Memorial Stadium on April 6.
