Westside NJROTC Air Rifle Team 7th in Nation

Westside's NJROTC Rifle Team placed 7th out of the 26 best Navy Air Rifle Teams at the Navy Nationals in Anniston, AL on February 21-23. This qualifies Westside to compete at the next level (All-Service Nationals) for the 4th year in a row. The All-Service National championship will be the best 7 teams from the Army, Navy, Air Force, and Marine Corps. This competition is also in Anniston in March. A couple of individual accomplishments are: Senior, Ongela Herrington, place 9th out of 136 of the best shooters in the Navy. Senior, Jasmine Hailey, received the top award that the Civilian Marksmanship Program awards for long-term shooting excellence. Points are earned over a shooter's career for placing near the top in the major competitions. Even though Jasmine is only in her second year of shooting, she has excelled consistently and is the first Westside shooter to the the Distinguished Shooter Medal.
