Midshipman Candidate Ryan O'Kane, a native of Annapolis, MD, is looking forward to playing rugby next year for Navy. Sports are a huge part of this candidate's life and she currently serves as one of the managers of the NAPS men's lacrosse team, where her vocal support of her classmates helped spur the team on to beat MAPS. We look forward to seeing her unleash that energy and intensity on the rugby field next year!
