APFT scores in the battalion (300+). He was a key member of Ranger
Challenge team for three years. In 2004, the team he captained finished
fifth of twenty-two teams in the 14th ROTC Brigade in large part because

His performance as a leader among the MS IVs has been excellent and he has brought the battalion to new heights as evidenced by the performance of the cadets at the fall marksmanship range, Fall FTX, numerous events run for college athletic teams and the local community, weekly labs and at last year’s Ranger Challenge competition as the Team Captain.[/toggle_content]
