Cadets up for the challenge

JROTC Cadets

Two Seneca Valley JROTC cadets, senior Logan Randall and junior Wesley Marks, have been invited to attend the Civilian Marksmanship Program (CMP) Three-Position Air Rifle (3PAR) National Championship taking place June 21-22, in Port Clinton, Ohio.

The Raider Battalion Marksmanship Team competed in the Regional CMP Championship that took place April 12-13. The team missed qualifying for the national competition by five points, however, Mr. Randall’s and Mr. Mark’s individual scores qualified them to be invited to the national competition as individual athletes giving them the opportunity to continue to compete in the third and final round.

The CMP National Championship is the final event in the CMP Three-Position Air Rifle Championships. Qualification for this match comes from the CMP Regional Championships as well as the CMP State matches. The match will consist of two days of 3×20 matches and a final for the top eight competitors on the last day.
