ANNAPOLIS, Md.-Navy junior punter John Skaggs (Cantonment, Fla.) and senior offensive guard Grant Moody (Eureka, Kan.) have been named to the Football News All-Independent team.

Skaggs is coming off a fantastic sophomore season that saw him average a school-record 44.8 yards per punt, which was the fifth-best average in the country.

Moody, who is an Academic All-America candidate thanks to his 3.91 GPA in Quantitative Economics, started all 10 games at left guard for the Mids a year ago and will help anchor a veteran offensive line.

Navy opens up the 2002 season at SMU on Aug. 31. The home opener is Sept. 7 when Navy plays host to N.C. State in a 12-noon kickoff at Navy-Marine Corps Memorial Stadium. Season and single-game tickets are still available and can be bought at the Navy Box Office in Ricketts Hall or by calling 1-800-US4-NAVY.
