MSU’s ROTC program represented true Spartan spirit at the 7th ROTC Brigade Ranger Challenge in Fort Knox, Kentucky, where they placed 2nd out of 38 teams last November. For months, the ten competing students went through rigorous training to prepare for the competition, and their hard work paid off. The students will now go on to compete at the national Sandhurst Competition at the U.S. Military Academy in April 2022.
At the regional Ranger Challenge, MSU’s team surpassed competitors from the University of Michigan, Notre Dame, Ohio State University, Purdue, Louisville, and University of Tennessee, among others. At the upcoming Sandhurst Competition, students will compete against a larger number of other Army ROTC teams, service academies (Army, Navy, Air Force), and international service academy cadets (UK, Australia, Canada, etc.).
