Ooh-Rah!

Liv's MCJROTC team participated in the annual Upper Midwest JROTC Challenge at Cretin-Derham Hall on Friday - and took first place, breaking St. Thomas's 10 year record. St. Thomas didn't even place. When their name was announced, Cretin (an otherwise arch-rival) gave a standing ovation, which was possibly the best part of it all. Not bad for an inner city public school to beat a private military academy. Liv adds that a cadet from Arlington said, "When we go to a competion we look out for the home team and the Marines."
