Navy fullback Anthony Gargiulo searched the stands following a breakout performance against SMU Nov. 11 and tracked down his biggest fans -- his mom and dad.
Sal and Lisa Gargiulo leaned over the lower guard rail at Navy-Marine Corps Stadium and each gave their son a huge hug as the Midshipmen celebrated another key victory.
Gargiulo, a 6-foot-2, 239-pound junior, carried the load during the Midshipmen's 43-40 win that day. He broke two runs for 21 and 29 yards on Navy's final possession that set up the game-winning field goal by J.R. Osborn.
