Navy:: Quarterback Kaipo-Noa Kaheaku-Enhada returned to practice and is expected to play Saturday against Pittsburgh, an athletic department spokesman said. Kaheaku-Enhada was injured in the first half of Navy's road upset of then-16th-ranked Wake Forest three weeks ago and sat out his team's win at Air Force two weeks ago. Navy (4-2) was off last week. It was the second time this season that the senior injured his hamstring, the first time coming in the preseason when he partially tore it in Navy's first scrimmage. He missed more than a month with that injury, though this injury was said to be less serious. DON MARKUS
