Navy head football coach Ken Niumatalolo released the names of the 2010 Navy football recruits on Thursday evening as 52 prospects representing 20 states went through induction ceremonies and began plebe summer.

"We are extremely excited about this year's incoming class," said Niumatalolo. "From a talent standpoint it might be the best class we've ever brought in, but now they have to prove it in the classroom, in Bancroft Hall and on the field."

The state of Texas produced the most prospects with seven, while five incoming recruits hail from North Carolina, Florida, Georgia and California.

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 2010 campaign on Sept. 6 against Maryland at Baltimore's M&T Bank Stadium. The home opener is Sept. 11 against Georgia Southern.
