Navy Sports Central

By: Karl Darden
  • Summary

  • What if I told you about a group of elite college athletes who compete in 36 different sports at one of the toughest institutions in the nation. For them, it’s not about name, image, and likeness or any other kind of major endorsement deal. Because at the end of the day, their ultimate goal is to serve their country. These young men and women represent the best our country has to offer. They compete at a high level on both the national and world stage, and their stories have mostly gone untold. I’m here to change all of that.

    With Navy Sports Central, you'll get the latest news on the athletes, and their teams, gain some unique insights in our Deep Dive segment and hear from some great guests along the way.

    So please join me, Karl Darden, and check out Navy Sports Central wherever you get your podcasts to learn more about these incredible athletes and our nation’s future leaders.

    Welcome to Navy Sports Central - The Official Podcast of the Navy Sports Nation!

    The conclusion of the 2024 sports season saw the Men's and Women's Outdoor Track & Field teams continue their streak of Patriot League Championships. Meanwhile, the Women's Tennis team came from behind in dramatic fashion to win their first ever title. We'll do a complete run down in our sports update.

    In our Deep Dive segment, Maura Kent joins us to give her perspective on the NCAA Outdoor Track & Field Championships. She will talk about what it takes to qualify as well as give us some insight into her son Nathan's experience. He qualified for nationals in the 400 meters, and he was joined by Braden Presser (Javelin), Josh Boamah (Hammer Throw & Shot Put), and Brahmir Vick (110m Hurdles).

    We've got all of that for you plus our Question of the Day and Mid Watch segment, so don't go anywhere!
