Navy head football coach Ken Niumatalolo had to make some drastic changes after the 2018 season ended with a 17-10 loss to archrival Army.
The Midshipmen finished the year with a disappointing 3-10 record, only the second losing season since Niumatalolo took over the program in December 2007. The long-tenured coach was determined to move the program forward.
One of the first orders of business was improving the team's diet under the guidance of a nutritionist. The school is also making upgrades to the team's facilities with a new locker room, weight room and the Terwilliger Physical Mission Center, a $20-million addition to Ricketts Hall financed by private donations.
