I
t was a beautiful day on Saturday, September
17 as the MMA Alumni Association hosted a
tailgating event on the campus of Massachu-
setts Maritime Academy. It was also enjoyable to
watch the Mariner football team bring home the
Admiral’s Cup in a thrilling contest. Adding to our
pride, the Mariner volleyball team made it a clean
sweep, beating USMMA, Mass Maritime and SUNY
Maritime in the Mariner Volleyball Classic. It was
great to see so many alumni attend. Thanks to the
many Bay Staters, as well as alumni from Maine to
Connecticut, for attending.Bay State

T
he Connecticut MMA Alumni Chapter
meeting was hosted at Electric Boat in Groton,
Connecticut. We gave a tour of the facility,
which included going aboard the USS Colorado,
which is the 15th Virginia Class submarine being
built here. The intent of the visit was for local alum-
ni to meet with Jeff Wright and Capt. Leach ’10 to
showcase the Shipbuilding and Engineering efforts
currently ongoing here and the opportunity for
MMA graduates as a career path. Our website, http://www.
gdeb.com, has more information on the company
and current submarine specifications.
