Charlotte, North Carolina’s Alex Bonfilio committed to The United States Naval Academy class of 2020.
“I chose The Naval Academy because I wanted to be a part of something greater then myself. I loved the team and the coaches. They made me feel like I was at home. I am so honored to be able to have this opportunity to attend such a prestigious academy and serve my country afterwards. I can’t wait to see where this road takes me in life and all the hard and great times I am going to get to experience.
GO NAVY, BEAT ARMY”
