ROTC cadets perform at drill meet

ROTC cadets perform at drill meet

In the future these boys and girls will protect this country but for now they compete for the title of best drill team. ROTC held its first drill meet Feb. 1.

Nineteen ROTC groups from districts across the state came to compete against one another. The drill meet is held as a training, builds relationships with other schools and is a fund raiser.

Sergeant J.J. Smith acted as the coordinator for other schools and held the practices for his own team.

“We practiced three times a week,” Sergeant Smith said. “This was the best drill meet ever.”

ROTC’s Sabre team placed second and got praise from the judges.

“I thought we were super organized,” freshman Zachary Stegman said.

Colonel Wayne Willbanks was proud of his cadets and all the hard work the team put in.

“Our kids did the best,” Willbanks said. “This drill meet taught leadership and responsibility.”

About the Contributor
Destiny Quezada, Staff Writer
Well there isn’t much to say about me except I’m a strange junior who loves to be around outgoing people, because I’m not. As weird as it sounds I do like to be with my family, and my best friend is my mom. Even though I don’t say much, I’m always thinking about what others are saying and forming my own opinions. I love to hear others’ opinions about controversial topics, which is why I think I could make a good writer. I like to think I’m mature for my age. Sometimes I “know” what I want to do when I grow up but I really don’t. I also hate cats, homework and interacting with strangers. I love Takis, reading about anything and everything and watching Netflix 24/7.
