The Naval Academy and lacrosse communities are mourning the loss of Glen Miles, one of the most accomplished players in Navy lacrosse history, who passed away on 7 August at age 62. A Timonium, Maryland, native, Miles was a three-time All-American midfielder at Navy and earned national midfielder of the year honors in 1986. He finished his collegiate career with 140 points and remains among the program's all-time leaders in assists.
 
Following his standout career in Annapolis, Miles represented the United States on the international stage as a member of the gold medal-winning 1990 U.S. Men's National Team and was later inducted into both the National Lacrosse Hall of Fame and the U.S. Naval Academy Hall of Fame. Miles also served as a Marine Corps F/A-18 pilot and Top Gun graduate before dedicating years to mentoring young athletes through Fellowship of Christian Athletes Lacrosse. He is remembered as a devoted husband, father, mentor and ambassador for the game.
