| LEARNING EXPERIENCE AT NORTH: The Trask Raider Team traveled to Pocahontas State Park, VA, and participated among some 47 teams at the Brigade sponsored "Raider North" competition. A strong showing in the first two events of the Modified Army Physical Fitness Test (push-ups and sit-ups) was frustrated when only four team members were able to complete the mile at the required time of 6:50. PT qualifiers for the Titans were Chris Woodcock, Richardo Mata, Jose Lopez and Robert McCaskill. Sole qualifier among the "contingency" personnel was freshman Jakita Lane. Work ahead for the "Storm from the South." |
