<p>Hold a good thought, all you USNA enthusiasts, as the Naval Academy Prep School batallion travels to Ft Monmouth for the annual NAPS/MAPS football clash on Saturday.</p>
<p>Rumor has it that several MAPS trophies may have appeared -- as if by magic -- in the trophy case in Ripley Hall's quarter deck. (NAPS watch there is doubled between now and the game Sat., but that must be a coincidence.)</p>
<p>Way to go, NAPSters on your victory over MAPS on Saturday. It sounded like there was plenty of fireworks on and off the field. </p>
<p>For some reason, the guys at MAPS didn't think it too funny when their trophies were returned. They really didn't like it when the NAPSters posted a "For Sale by Owner" sign right on the fifty yard line after the game! </p>
<p>GO NAVY!</p>
<p>Were you there, Red Bear? I heard something about the MAPS chain gang swiping Capt. Hautau's cover during post-point push-ups, and a NAPS player in full pads tackling the offenders to recover it. </p>
<p>Sounds like a lively day.</p>
<p>I guess the MAPS guys are practicing to be at USMA. :D</p>
<p>^^^^ they actually practice??? ;)</p>
<p>No, I wasn't there NorthernCalMother. I just got an excited call from my son and he told me about that incident with Capt. Hautau. Sounded like a big time was had by all!</p>
<p>Did you check out the pictures on the NAPS parent's page?</p>
<p>I'm a NAPSter right now, and I was wondering if anyone got that tackle involving Capt. Hautau on video. I would very much like to see that again, seeing how that player has achieved almost godlike status for his actions at the game.</p>
