Navy won its second straight Commander-In-Chief's Trophy with a late touchdown pass by Blake Horvath in a 17-16 victory over Army, overcoming multiple turnovers.

  • On Saturday, Navy Midshipmen rallied to beat Army 17-16 as Blake Horvath threw an 8-yard touchdown pass to Eli Heidenreich with 6:32 remaining.
  • After a second-quarter surge by Army, Navy trailed 16-7 at half but outscored Army 10-3 in the second half to win 17-16.
  • Suffering two turnovers, Horvath also produced crucial plays despite a near goal-line fumble, while Phillip Hamilton's interception and Alex Tecza's runs secured Navy's final possession.

  • The result continues a long Army drought against ranked Navy teams, as the Black Knights haven't beaten a Navy team since 1955, despite Navy Midshipmen finishing tied for first in the American Athletic Conference this year.
