2022 Ranger Challenge Recap!

Over the Presidents Day weekend we sent our Ranger Challenge team to Fort A.P. Hill to compete in the Army ROTC 4th Brigade Ranger Challenge Competition. Ranger Challenge is a 10 Cadet team that competes against the other 37 Army ROTC programs across 4th Brigade (South Carolina / North Carolina / Virginia / West Virginia / Maryland / Delaware / Washington D.C), in events that are physically and mentally demanding that focus on tasks that cadets will need during their careers as Army Officers.

With a young team full of freshman, captained by Senior CDT. Levery, we finished 10th out of 38 teams. That is an amazing accomplishment for our young team and we hope to build upon the experience and hopes of a top performance in the coming years. Congratulations 2022 Blue Jay Battalion Ranger Challenge team!!!
