Newport team

The Newport Team was the team of Cadets in their final year who represented the Newport Academy for the Reagan Trophy Challenge. Like in other academies, academy ships, and other ships with more than one midshipman team, the various teams get to adopt a name. However, about midway through the year Admiral Dent would do some shifting around and to combine the nine best individuals into the "Newport Team."

Between 5000, Year and 5020, year the team representing the Newport Elite Academy won the Reagan trophy twenty consecutive times before being dethroned by the Olafson's Gang who saw what appeared to be an accident killing their leader Eric Olafson and with Har-Hi taking over as team leader, managed to complete the final task in first place.

After the competition, evidence was found that Admiral Dent had controlled the results of the competition after he became Commandant of Newport Academy. As a result of that tampering, all the results of the Reagan Trophy Challenge held while he was Commandant, with exception of the first and last, were vacated completely.

After the Reagan Trophy competition was restarted in 5022, year the teams from the Newport Standard Academy were almost always present in the final round of competitions, but consistently would only refer to themselves by the name they had chosen after being grouped together.
