Brigade Boxing
I'm joined by Stephanie Simon who is a class of 17 graduate from the United States Naval Academy and currently serves as a United States Marine Corps Officer. Stephanie was a general science major at the academy.
Stephanie is the best if not one of the best boxers in Naval Academy history. She's a three time national champion, a two time brigade champion, and then, on top of all of that, she was also a member of the varsity track and field team and the glee club. This is one of the most impressive people that you will ever meet. As you listen to her, you'll also realize she's one of the wisest, most articulate, well thought out and well intentioned people that you will ever meet.
Stephanie breaks down how the Brigade Championships work and her experience in the Brigade Championships and National Championships.
I ask her about the inspiration she provides others and she tells us about how Sixty Minutes covered Navy Boxing and featured her.
