While it may be safe to say that Royal Military College has not been spoiled by athletic success over the years, there is one competition they are proving to all but own.
A team from the college has won the Sandhurst Military Skills Competition, one of the toughest such contests in the world, for the fourth time in five years.
Held earlier this month, the team got the best of the host U. S. Military Academy, Britain's military academy -- after which the competition is named -- and other service academies and universities from around the world.
The gruelling two-day exercise, held this year at West Point, N. Y., includes marksmanship, assault boat competitions, rappelling, orienteering and other team challenges under the umbrella of soldiers' common tasks, all done by competitors in boots, full kit and rifle over a rugged seven-mile course.
Described as the fittest cadets in the college by far, RMC finished the course in four hours, 29 minutes, more than five minutes ahead of the second-place U. S. Military Academy.
