Congratulations

NJROTC Mariners!

Congrats to the PHS NJROTC for qualifying for the second straight year for the Area Eleven Super Bowl, California State Championship. 45 cadets traveled to Lemoore California and placed 3rd in overall Drill, 4th in Academics, 4th in Physical Fitness, and third place overall. The most impressive was that our NJROTC Color Guard won first place over Troy High School which placed 4th in National Competition last year. So far this year, our cadets have qualified for the Brain Brawl State Championship, and the Orienteering State Championship! Outstanding job Mariner Cadets!

& Our cadets competed in the California State Championships in orienteering yesterday at Vazquez Rocks. We placed 4th overall and 3rd in State so I'm waiting on official word to see if we have qualified for Nationals. Nationals is February 16-18 in Orlando Florida!

Results of Competition:

Caleb Huang - 8th in State Varsity Males

Mary Klaire Jamandre - 4th in State JV Females

Freshman Orienteering Team - 2nd in State Overall

Dean Dang - 5th in Freshman State Males

Kevin Le - 4th in Freshman State Males
