The Monarch High School Junior Reserve Officer Officers Training Corps competed in their first competition on Saturday.

With 13 schools competing at Marjory Stoneman Douglas, there were five events, with the first being a 5k team run where students were timed until the last member crossed the line.

The second event was litter carry, where members took turns carrying the litter for one mile. Teams then had to form a bridge until the last person on the team crossed.

The fourth event was the tire flip, which was capped off by an obstacle course.

Monarch had both the male and female teams finish in fifth place, while the junior varsity team placed ninth.
