After battling through intense cold, countless practices, and obstacles, today’s comp at Smyrna High was legendary!
Led by underclassmen and teamwork, we took 1st PLACE OVERALL!
This win marks 1SG Hart’s final comp after 6 years. A legacy that sets the bar high for the season!

Happy Veterans Day! Our Color Guard proudly hosted events at Mission BBQ & Blackman Middle School today. We're honored to represent Blackman and show respect for those who’ve dedicated their lives to our country. Take a moment to thank a veteran for their sacrifice and service.

The standard is set by the Blackman Raider team, placing 1st overall, and 1st in 9/10 events. All of the hours of hard work paid off into a great day.
