Navy keeps Commander-in-Chief Trophy after holding off Army

PHILADELPHIA (AP) -- The Commander-in-Chief's Trophy is staying docked with Navy.

While Army and Navy played a mostly competitive game in this increasingly lopsided rivalry, the result was still the same and the Midshipmen are again the class of the service academies.

Jason Tomlinson and Reggie Campbell each rushed for touchdowns to lead Navy to a 26-14 win over Army on Saturday in the 107th meeting of one of the most storied rivalries in college sports.

Keenan Little returned an interception 40 yards for a TD late in the fourth for bowl-bound Navy (9-3). The Midshipmen equaled their longest winning streak in the series, matching a pair of five-game winning streaks, most recently from 1959-1963. Navy has outscored the Black Knights by a 202-68 margin the last five years and boosted its overall series lead to 51-49-7.

Navy captured the Commander-in-Chief's Trophy, awarded annually to the winner of the football competition between the three major service academies, for the fourth straight year.

The win also made Navy's senior class the first in team history to finish 8-0 -- yup, an appropriate clean sweep -- against Army and Air Force. This was a win that would be savored from the ol' gridiron to "Old Ironsides."

Trying to force at least a share of the CIC trophy for the first time since 1996, the Black Knights (3-9) instead ended the season on a six-game losing streak under coach Bobby Ross. Jeremy Trible ran for a touchdown and tight end Tim Dunn caught a TD pass with 2 seconds left
