Alright, let’s talk Navy basketball and the king of clutch moments, Austin Benigni. So, if you were wondering what’s happening in Annapolis, here’s the deal—Benigni just pulled his name out of the transfer portal, and he’s sticking with the Midshipmen for that all-important senior year. Worth noting? He led the Patriot League in scoring with a neat 18.8 points per game last season. Just casually doing his thing, snagging first-team All-Patriot League honors. Total baller, right?

Now, with Benigni back in the lineup, Navy’s rolling into next season with all five starters returning. That’s a solid deal when you’re eyeing a big run. The team’s looking like they’ve got unfinished business on the court and some serious potential to be a force in the league.

This move makes you wonder how much of a psychological game it is for players juggling transfer options. But hey, when your vibes are right with a team and you’ve got some camaraderie going, sometimes sticking it out is the way to go.

So, Midshipmen fans, take a deep breath and get hyped—Benigni is back to unlock some magic for Navy basketball. It’s going to be one exciting season with him rallying the troops on the hardwood.
