Francis Parker, El Camino graduates lead respective academies into Saturday's showdown
The Commander-in-Chief's Trophy isn't at stake. Still. Saturday's football game between the Merchant Marine Academy and the Coast Guard Academy — two of five federal service academies that include Air Force, the Naval Academy and West Point — is a big deal. 'This is a big-time game,' Merchant Marine Academy football coach Jameson Croall, who is in his second year as head coach and 12th in the program.
'I have to do my job and do it right ... handle the ball, distribute it, get it to the right person. We're tight on and off the field, so I know what my guys can do. And they know me.' Alota throws some, having put up 743 passing yards and eight touchdowns. He threw for 355 yards, nearly half his season total, in a 40-28 win over Worcester Poly on Oct. 21. Alota played in three games as a freshman. He didn't throw a pass and rushed three times.
