Navy loses co-captain Gonzales for rest of season

-

Navy senior inside linebacker Daniel Gonzales suffered a career-ending injury during Saturday’s loss to Air Force, coach Ken Niumatalol­o announced Tuesday. Gonzales, a co-captain and the team’s second-leading tackler, went down in the first half with a foot injury and did not return. An MRI conducted Monday revealed a Lisfranc injury, which is either a fracture or dislocatio­n of the metatarsal bones in the midfoot area. “Obviously, a very sad deal. We’re losing a leader on and off the field, a great football player and a great person,” Niumatalol­o said after practice Tuesday. Gonzales started all 28 varsity games in which he played and concludes his career with 174 tackles and four intercepti­ons.
