Today, U.S. Senator Todd Young (R-Ind.) announced his nominations for U.S. service academy appointments. A record 149 students applied for the nominations, and a select group was interviewed by an advisory board chosen by Senator Young. Out of 60 interviewed, 39 exemplary young men and women from across Indiana received a nomination from Senator Young. A nomination does not guarantee admission to a service academy, but is required in order to be considered. Nominees are chosen based on personal merit. Criteria considered include evidence of character, leadership, academic excellence, physical aptitude, and extracurricular activities.\r\nI had the privilege of recommending a talented group of Hoosiers for admission to the United States service academies this year,said Senator Young.These young men and women are highly qualified to serve our country and I'm very proud of their hard work. I wish them the best of luck in their application process.\r\nSenator Young's service academy nominees are listed below:\r\nUnited States Air Force Academy\r\nMitchell Amstutz\r\nIndianapolis\r\n\r\nAdam Bedel\r\nOldenburg\r\n\r\nThomas Beggs\r\nBloomington\r\n*Also nominated to the United States Military Academy\r\n\r\nMia Loposser\r\nLogansport\r\n*Also nominated to the United States Naval Academy\r\n\r\nEliza Mount\r\nScottsburg\r\n\r\nArieanna Sendmeyer\r\nWestfield\r\n*Also nominated to the United States Naval Academy\r\n\r\nAlexander Stamp\r\nValparaiso\r\n\r\nRyan Stiffler\r\nIndianapolis\r\n*Also nominated to the United States Military Academy\r\n\r\nElena Strube\r\nGreenwood\r\n\r\nElizabeth Tice\r\nKokomo\r\n\r\nUnited States Merchant Marine Academy\r\nFinn Anderson\r\nColumbus\r\n*Also nominated to the United States Naval Academy\r\n\r\nOwen Golliher\r\nCambridge City\r\n\r\nRiley Guetig\r\nCampbellsburg\r\n\r\nJakob Jenkins\r\nFort Wayne\r\n\r\nChristopher Klayer\r\nBrownsburg\r\n\r\nChad Welch\r\nWestfield\r\n*Also nominated to the United States Naval Academy\r\n\r\nUnited States Naval Academy\r\nJohn Anderson\r\nSouth Bend\r\n\r\nAyden Bennett\r\nValparaiso\r\n\r\nNicholas Bostock\r\nFishers\r\n\r\nKiel Brenczewski\r\nFishers\r\n\r\nJoseph Deahl\r\nGranger\r\n\r\nNathan Dickman\r\nRichmond\r\n\r\nNicolas Dietz\r\nGreenwood\r\n\r\nDryden Frecker\r\nBrownsburg\r\n\r\nJohn Hutchens\r\nIndianapolis\r\n\r\nFaye Jessup\r\nBrownsburg\r\n\r\nCora Olsen\r\nMunster\r\n\r\nSarah Prazeau\r\nMcCordsville\r\n\r\nAlexis Rice\r\nWest Lafayette\r\n\r\nCaroline Swenson\r\nColumbus\r\n\r\nNathan Webb\r\nLiberty\r\n\r\nUnited States Military Academy\r\nAlexander Burton\r\nShirley\r\n\r\nThomas Gastineau\r\nCarmel\r\n\r\nSydney Herczeg\r\nSouth Bend\r\n\r\nDirk Herschberger\r\nNew Haven\r\n\r\nMolly Kubaszyk\r\nLa Porte\r\n\r\nDeacon Shininger\r\nGreenfield\r\n\r\nJoshua Thombleson\r\nMartinsville\r\n\r\nBenjamin Vorisek\r\nWestfield\r\n*Also nominated to the United States Naval Academy\n\t\t\t\n\t\t\t\n\t\t\t\n\t\t\n\t\t\n\t\n\t  \n\n\t\n\t\n\t\n\t\n\t \n\t\t\n\t\t\tPrint\n\t\t\n\t\t\n\t\t\t\n\t\t\tEmail\n\t\t\n\t\t\n\t\t\t\n\t\t\t\t\n\t\t\t\n\t\t\n\t\t\n\t\t\n\t\t\t\n\t\t\t\tTweet\n\t\t\t\n\t\t\n\t \n\t\n\t\n\n\t\n\t\n\t\n\t\n\t\n    \n\t\n\t\n    \n    \n    \n    \t\n    \t\n\t    \t  \n\t\t    \n\t\t    \n\t\t    \tPrevious Article", 1, "2026-03-30T12:14:52Z", "2026-03-30T12:14:52Z"]], "columns": ["url", "title", "date", "year", "month", "party", "chamber", "state", "member_name", "bioguide_id", "domain", "scraper", "source", "date_source", "text", "has_text", "collected_at", "updated_at"], "primary_keys": ["url"], "primary_key_values": ["https://www.young.senate.gov/newsroom/press-releases/senator-todd-young-announces-nominees-for-united-states-service-academies"], "units": {}, "query_ms": 1.5101251192390919, "source": "dwillis/congress-press", "source_url": "https://github.com/dwillis/congress-press", "license": "MIT", "license_url": "https://github.com/dwillis/congress-press/blob/main/LICENSE"}
