Ex-Taft player starting at Navy – Ram Vela – San Antonio
Tagged: children, San Antonio, TexasPosted on: October 10th, 2007“It’s a story Navy sophomore linebacker Ram Vela, a standout quarterback at Taft in 2004, can tell his grandchildren someday.
Although he laughs about it now, Vela was hardly smiling last spring when he was detained at a security checkpoint at the White House before the Midshipmen received the Commander-in-Chief’s Trophy from President Bush.
“It was a very scary experience,” said Vela, a 2005 Taft graduate who will start at outside linebacker when Navy plays at Pittsburgh tonight.”
