I tried "Annapolis" and "Naval Academy" for the Robinson question. I didn't think to try just "Navy".

I eventually wrote "Navy," but that is not the name of the college he attended, it's the institution of which it is a part. At least allow "Naval Academy" as an alternative answer.

Agreed, although if you start to type US Naval Academy, it accepts it after USNA (which is the acronym). But Naval Academy needs to work as well.

Never heard of Walsh or May-Treanor, but I was guessing Mays for one of the baseball questions which gave me May-Treanor. I love freebies.
