Navy guard with a light offensive résumé, but a team-first fit
Paul Bania’s on-court profile is more about role and reliability than eye-popping production: in the 2002-03 season, he appeared in 12 games for Navy and averaged 0.7 points and 1.3 rebounds, with a career-high five points coming against Bucknell in early February 2002. The stat line is modest, but the value here is the guard/wing frame and willingness to fill minutes without needing the ball—useful traits for a disciplined program that prizes structure, effort, and low-drama fit. In short: if your team needs a grinder, not a high-usage scorer, he’s the type who can blend in and do the dirty work.
