Athletics this week...

On Friday, February 27, 2026, the Knight Battalion traveled to Hickory Convention Center in North Carolina to compete in the 4th Brigade Best of the Best (state) Archery Competition.

We want to start by acknowledging the immense hard work and dedication our Cadets put into qualifying for this elite event. Reaching this level of competition is a feat in itself, and every one of them did an amazing job representing our Battalion.

We are proud to announce the following team results:

• Bullseye Competition: 18th place overall out of 34 schools
• 3D Event: 12th place overall out of 34 schools.

Also want to give a special highlight to Cadet LTC Yatrik Patel. In an incredible display of skill and focus, Cadet Patel took 1st place in the 3D event, ranking number 1 out of 245 cadets. This is a monumental individual achievement that speaks to his discipline and talent.

Congratulations to the entire JROTC Knight Battalion Archery Team—you rock!
