ATHLETICS Athletics are an integral part of Ca- det Life. Every cadet must survive four-years of interaction with the Department of Physical Education and engage in either Corps Squad, Club Squad, or Intramural Athletic competition. Who can forget the smell of the Boxing Ring..., or the feeling standing at the top of the 10 meter tower facing the leap of faith..., or the annual torture of the IOCT..., or the thrill of an Intramural Champion- ship..., or, above all else, a victory over Navy? Competitive by nature, cadets live for the excitement of vic- tory and learn, inevitably, the per- sonal agony of defeat while at USMA. Learning both is extremely impor- tant, fueling our desire to serve with distinction and to WIN if called upon by our country to do so. “For here we train the men and women whose duty it is to defend the Repub- lic — the men and women whose pro- fession is watchfulness — whose skill is vigilance whose calling is to guard the peace, but if need be, to fight and WIN.” -President Ronald Reagan, October 28, 1987.
