Congratulations to Kapaa High School's JROTC Drill Team for their outstanding performance at the Kings Guard Drill Meet on Oahu last weekend! Cadet Justin Apilado, a freshman, commanded the Armed Regulation Team and brought home the 5th place trophy out of 20 teams. Cadet Joe Blair earned a 15th place medal in the O’Grady Armed individual competition with over 200 cadets competing. The Unarmed Regulation, Quad Exhibition, and Color Guard teams also participated. The following drill team cadets represented Kapaa High School: Reggie Acoba, Justin Apilado, Joe Blair, Joanna Chang, Arjay Fernandez, Ayisha Flores, CJ Jarquio, Kleiff Pascual, Travis Peralta, JR Quilos, and Jackie Tacsiat. After the competition, the cadets were able to take a tour of Pearl Harbor, visit the USS Arizona Memorial, skate at the Ice Palace, shop at the Pearl Ridge Shopping Mall, and tour other scenic areas of Oahu. Kapaa High School JROTC gained a lot of invaluable experience and looks forward to competing in next year's drill competitions! Hoo-Ah!
