Greg Sprink

Sprink, a native of Cardiff-by-the-Sea, Encinitas, California, was an El Camino High School role player who garnered little attention from colleges. He primarily shot three-pointers and deferred to three teammates who were all committed to playing at NCAA Division I schools. Navy, however, sent Sprink multiple recruitment letters, which caught his attention. He appreciated the advantages of a Naval Academy education and secure job opportunities after his five-year military service commitment so he committed to play for the Midshipmen under new head coach Billy Lange. Spring spent a postgraduate year at the Naval Academy Preparatory School prior to enrolling at the university. ==College==

Sprink entered his freshman year in 2004–05. He made an impact, averaging 10.1 points and 6.0 rebounds per game, good for third-best on Navy in both statistical categories. As a junior, the Midshipmen showed improvement by putting together a 14–16 record. Sprink scored his 1,000th career point on February 2, 2007 against Bucknell and finished the season averaging 16.9 points per game, which led Navy. He became the first Navy player to win the Patriot League award. ==Post college==

Sprink graduated from the Naval Academy in 2008. He went on to serve in the U.S. Navy until 2017, although he is still in the U.S. Navy Reserves. In 2017 he co-founded Admiral Distribution, a construction material wholesaler in the Houston, Texas area, where he serves as in a business development capacity. ==References==
