After the final tabulations were in from this weeks 17 Victory Cup events the Battalion with the most points went to the “Iron Rangers” of the 1st Armored Brigade Combat Team, 1st Battalion, 16th Infantry.
The Commander of the “Iron Rangers” Lt. Col. Trent Upton said
that he knew the point totals were going to be close going in but,”you don’t count your chickens until they’re hatched as they say.”
“We knew we were doing very well but we didn’t really know the total points across the Division so we just really focused on winning as much as we can, playing our hearts out and giving it our best effort and we figured it would all fall into place after that and it did.”
Soldiers from across the 1st Infantry Division at Fort Riley participated in a number of sporting events throughout the week as a part of Victory Week. Friday’s award ceremony wrapped up this week’s Victory Week events.
