In a rare feat, the Junior Reserve Officers Training Corps at Ozark High School won four national championships in a single year.
The first JROTC national championship was won at the end of February and the final two were in early May.
JROTC Raider instructor Maj. Danny Cazier said there are more than 3,400 JROTC program eligible to complete including at least 1,700 Army JROTC programs.
“A national championship is an incredible achievement, Cazier said.
“Achieving simultaneous national championships in a single sport is also extremely uncommon. Achieving simultaneous national championships in different sports is even more rare. Simultaneous national championships in three different sports is almost beyond belief. Achieving four national championships total in a single year is just surreal.”

Before this season the majority of the Matildas moved to Europe while the COVID-19 pandemic made recruiting international players a difficult prospect.
So Sky Blues coach Ante Juric got on the front foot - quickly locking in most of the talent that made the 2019-20 grand final and bolstering the squad with some of the best young talent from other clubs.
That included Newcastle midfielder Clare Wheeler and winger Cortnee Vine - plus a shrewd recruit in NPLW defender Charlotte Mclean.
Now, Sydney s unique all-Australian line-up has wrapped up the premiers plate and will look to complete the W-League double when they face Melbourne Victory in Sunday s grand final.
