Orlando Angling To Host Army-Navy Game At Camping World Stadium

Orlando is pushing for Camping World Stadium to "someday welcome the unique pageantry and tradition of an Army-Navy football game," as it is "no stranger to hosting regular season neutral-site clashes," according to Matt Murschel of the ORLANDO SENTINEL. The game has typically been held in the Northeast, rotating between the N.Y. and Baltimore areas, but Philadelphia's Lincoln Financial Field in recent years has served as the primary host site. Orlando was "one of several cities to receive" an RFP from the schools during the last bidding window, but "scheduling conflicts made it impossible to apply." Florida Citrus Sports CEO Steve Hogan indicated that the organization was "honored to be contacted and hopes to apply in the next window to host the game" between '23-28. Murschel noted the game has "never been held" in a location south of FedExField in Landover, Md. A decision on future sites for Army-Navy "could come as early as this year" (ORLANDO SENTINEL, 3/14).
