Milestone Watch

• Ramsay Killinger reached the 50-win milestone in his last outing, defeating Dickinson's George Vollmer in 3 games to become the 40th player in program history to reach 50 wins. 
• Wenqing Tang, who has had a remarkable two-year run at Navy, has put together a 48-6 record to date. He needs 2 wins to become the 41st player in school history to reach 50 wins.
• This year's Navy squad became the 12th in the program's 78-year history to reach the 20-win milestone when it defeated Franklin & Marshall 6-3 on Feb. 4. It's the first time a Navy team has won 20 matches since 2016-17 when the Mids finished the year 20-6. 
• With 22 wins to date, it's the most wins by a Navy team since the 2012-13 team finished the year 25-9.

• Eighth-year Navy head coach Tyler Osborne earned his 100th collegiate victory on Dec. 7 with the 7-2 win over Rochester.
• Osborne, who became the seventh head coach in program history in the summer of 2018, is fourth Navy squash coach to reach the century mark in the wins column, joining Craig Dawson (365-154 / 2001-18), Dave Brown (267-117 / 1982-96) and Art Potter (267-62 / 1951-77).
• Osborne owns a 107-86 (.554) record heading into the CSA Divisional Team Championship.
