December 19, 2018 By Tom McHale

Granbury MC JROTC

MCJROTC teams made an impressive run in the National Air Rifle Tournament, as Granbury MCJROTC won the Precision championship and Nation Ford MCJROTC won the Sporter Championship.

They finished the postseason unbeaten with a 2346 to 2338 close victory.

Seventh seeded Nation Ford MCJROTC’s path to the title of Sporter champion was very impressive, as they were considered the underdog in each of their three matches. In the first two rounds, Nation Ford MCJROTC won against two undefeated teams from the regular season in second seeded Gulfport MCJROTC and third seeded Lebanon AJROTC. They rounded out their impressive run with a 2212-2194 victory against Pueblo County AJROTC. Sarah Leininger, Deonte Hayes, Kayla Kalenza, and Nick Noto competed for the Fort Mill, SC, based team.
