duty with the Navy, from which
he receives full pay and
allowances to attend USC.
"I'm one of the only guys in
the country who actively serves
in the Navy and competes in
NCAA athletics," said Page, who
is 28, married and the father of
two.
cock James has served more than
md nine years in the Navy, mostly
eak on submarines as a nuclear engineer.
He also served at the
Charleston Naval Base. Page is a
lore firm believer in the experiences
the Navy has provided him.
' "Academically, I'm glad I
waited to go to college because I
eve know what I want to do now and
