    The College of The Holy Cross Naval Reserve Officers' Training Corps (NROTC) Midshipman 2nd Class Bennett Rogers (right), 20, from Ridgewood, N.J., performs a buddy rescue drag on Holy Cross Midshipman 2nd Class Bill Goggins, 20, from Laurel, N.Y., in The Pit station of the Warrior Challenge event during the 27th annual Military Excellence Competition (MEC) here, Sept. 28. The Warrior Challenge Race was the grueling highlight of the MEC. Only about 3.5-miles around the campus, the grueling part were the many hills the midshipmen and cadets had to climb and how challenging, physical and exhausting each of the seven stations were the two-man and woman teams had to endure. The midshipmen and cadet teams had to perform calisthenics at one station, perform fireman carries and buddy drags at another, climb the bleachers at the Holy Cross Crusaders football stadium, haul a 50-pound ammunition container up and down a hill four times and carry a 40-pound backpack up the very steep College Street hill that climbs past the college's main gate.
