ANNAPOLIS, MD.
The sights at the United States Naval Academy are impressive – imposing architecture, midshipmen marching and monuments to battle. "Beat Army" signs and Navy flags adorn almost every house and cannons decorate lawns.
Wichita State's basketball team toured the campus on Thursday and what they will remember are the words and spirit of the midshipmen. The culture of trust, service and selflessness described by the Navy students resonated with the Shockers.
"We needed to hear some of the things they said," Wichita State freshman Dexter Dennis said.
