ANNAPOLIS, Md. - Navy head football coach Ken Niumatalolo released the names of the 2012 Navy football recruits on Thursday evening as 58 prospects representing 19 states went through induction ceremonies and began plebe summer.

"We are excited about the group we brought in this year," said Niumatalolo. "If they work hard and do the things they are supposed to do in Bancroft Hall, in the classroom, in the weight room and on the practice field they will have a chance to contribute."

Texas and California produced the most prospects with eight, while six hail from Florida and Maryland. Georgia produced five prospects, while Tennessee, Kentucky and Virginia all produced three.

Navy Football season tickets are currently on sale at the Ricketts Hall Box Office, by calling 1-800-US4-NAVY or by logging on to the web at www.navysports.com. Navy opens the 2012 campaign on Sept. 1 against Notre Dame in Dublin, Ireland. The Mids will play five games at Navy-Marine Corps Memorial Stadium this fall, including the season opener on Sept. 22 against VMI and a Homecoming game against Indiana on Oct. 20.
