A&M wins Sandhurst Competition Again

Texas A&M again tops Army ROTC teams at Sandhurst competition

West Point, N.Y. – Following months of intense training and qualifying events, Texas A&M’s Army ROTC program took home the ROTC Cup after finishing as the top ROTC team during the 55th Sandhurst Military Skills Competition held at the United States Military Academy at West Point, New York, April 26-27.

The team, led this year by Texas A&M senior cadet Nicholas Nolan, was also crowned the Army ROTC champion at the event in 2023.

The two-day competition featured 48 teams from service academies, ROTC programs, and international militaries, all contending to be named the 2024 Sandhurst champion.

“I am so proud of the Aggies for coming out here and giving it their all,” said Maj. Gen. Antonio Munera, commanding general of U.S. Army Cadet Command. “The team’s performance on the international stage demonstrates their commitment to leadership excellence.”

The team overcame 15 other ROTC teams that also qualified for the event through one of eight regional Ranger Challenge competitions open to all 274 Army ROTC programs around the nation. The competition at West Point included long-distance movements over rough terrain, team fitness events, small boat movements, and marksmanship and medical skill challenges, among other rigorous tasks.

The Texas A&M team not only won the ROTC Cup, but their impressive performance placed them 4th out of 48 teams in the overall international competition – equaling their overall placement in last year’s event.


I guess what the rant refers to as our "fake" military is actually tougher than the West Point Cadets.

I say this not to insult or mock you... I will leave that to others... but would you like to know who really won that competition?

The US Military Academy Black team took home the title after edging out the Royal Military College of Canada. After them was the Air Force Academy and then the Aggies.

You guys came out on top of the ROTC competition. As you may, or may not, know Army Cadets aren't ROTC. You did beat the various "company" teams competing for the USMA which is impressive but if you are on one of the company teams at the USMA its because you couldn't qualify for the very best team at West Point.

So, congratulations on losing to Army, Air Force, and the Canucks.

Well since they are not in the military or have any obligation to the military, it is not in fact the military, so fake military seems fitting.

West Point is too busy teaching cadets about cross-dressing.

Not to be that guy, but technically West Point cadets aren't ROTC.

If you look up cringey in the dictionary, there you will find TEXAS A&M. Jesus Christ.

True...but, all of the West Point Cadets could be aTm ROTC students. How many of the aTm ROTC students could be West Point cadets?


Point of reference:
- aTm acceptance rate is 62.4%
- West Point acceptance rate is 12%

Before Mike Leach passed, I believe he set up some cadet schools at Miss State and Washington State. Did they get to compete?

Aggy's incessant need to talk shite about the other service academies is bizarre and cringe. Like they actually think they're a better institution; or that the actual service academies know they exist.
