ANNAPOLIS, Md. (May 12, 2026) The U.S. Naval Academy holds the Sea Trials closing ceremony at Rip Miller Field. Sea Trials is a rigorous 14-hour team challenge that began with the class of 2001 in Spring 1998. Modeled after the Marine Corps’ Crucible and the Navy’s Battle Stations recruit training exercises, Sea Trials is the capstone event for the plebes led by Naval Academy upper class midshipmen. Sea Trials provides a final physical and mental challenge to the plebes and is designed to test their teamwork and reinforce their bonds. As the undergraduate college of our country’s naval service, the Naval Academy prepares young men and women to become professional officers of competence, character, and compassion in the U.S. Navy and Marine Corps.
