Ken Broschart Embracing Everything About Navy

When Navy coach Joe Amplo arrives at his office a bit before 8 a.m., he knows new Midshipmen offensive coordinator Ken Broschart will be out on a walk.

And at the top of the hour, he’ll be standing on Rip Miller Field, where Navy often practices, as the national anthem is played throughout the yard.

“That’s his thing,” Amplo said. “I don’t think he’s missed a day.”

Little wonder the coach says one of the reasons he hired Broschart as the program’s fourth offensive coordinator in as many years is that he wanted to be at Navy.

Broschart spent the past seven years at High Point, including the past four as the associate head coach under Jon Torpey.

Based on their season-opening 14-10 victory at High Point and the Mids’ subsequent 22-9 thrashing of Iona, they are taking to the new assistant’s teachings. Ten players scored and 13 recorded a point against High Point, then 15 players scored a goal against Iona — a striking showing for a group that saw five of its top six scorers graduate.
