Polar Bears Score ‘Bulls-eye’
After qualifying by winning the regional championship, the squad representing North High School finished 13th in last week’s national JROTC Air Rifle Championships at Camp Perry, Ohio.
The competition began back in December with 1,163 teams. In the individual standings, North’s Dakota Lumpkes-Heim finished 12th out of some 8,000 entrants.
If you think of those results in terms of where they’d place on a target, you’re looking at a couple of bulls-eyes. Congratulations and a salute to JROTC Marine Instructor, Gunnery Sergeant Mike Gettler and the rest of the team: Jessica Ebersole, Lucas McNichols, Jimmy Ellefson and Dakota Mattos!
