Photos: ROTC hosts high school teams at Raider Challenge
(Posted Sept. 23, 2019)
West Creek Team 2 won this fall’s Raider Challenge JROTC competition at Austin Peay State University.
The Sept. 21 event drew high schools – and about 90 cadets – from throughout Middle Tennessee to compete in several challenges, such as rope climbs and rope bridge; a two-mile run; casualty and medical evacuations; castle raid and tire resupply; and a field leader reaction course.
Schools included Rossview, Clarksville, Northwest, Montgomery Central, Kenwood, West Creek and Ravenwood high schools, and the challenges happened across Austin Peay’s Clarksville campus.
Thirty-two of Austin Peay’s ROTC cadets helped organize the event.
