SIG Sauer hosted the 2025 SIG Relentless Warrior Championship at the SIG Sauer Academy in Epping, New Hampshire, for two days of tough competition on April 10-11.
After a hard-fought battle with the New England cold, wind, rain and snow, plus the defending West Point champions, Texas A&M University secured the title of 2025 SIG Relentless Warrior Champion.
“On behalf of all the Cadets and Midshipmen who attended, I am very grateful to SIG Sauer for the time and effort committed to this event. I have coached 12 years of this match, and this was hands down the best organized and executed,” Texas A&M Corps of Cadets Marksmanship Unit Marksmanship Instructor and Coach Kevin Jimmerson said. “Competition is not about winning but improving your deficiencies. This is a vitally important lesson for these young men and women who will soon be leading young Americans in defense of our country. This Texas A&M team developed confidence and competence. We brought everything with us we needed to win this match.”
The SIG Relentless Warrior Challenge consisted of six stages, testing skills in marksmanship, teamwork and leadership through mission-focused themes.
This year marked the largest SIG Sauer Relentless Warrior Championship in the event’s history with 126 competitors. Cadets from the Air Force Academy, Coast Guard Academy, Royal Military College of Canada, University of North Georgia, Texas A&M, Merchant Marine Academy, Virginia Polytechnic Institute, West Point, The Citadel and Virginia Military Institute competed at the match.
“It is such an honor to host the SIG Relentless Warrior Championship each year and provide a competitive shooting landscape where these cadets can experience the skills, stress, camaraderie and teamwork to help develop future leaders of the military who will serve and protect our freedoms,” SIG Sauer Vice President, Consumer Affairs, Phil Strader said. “I’m proud of the Texas A&M Corps of Cadets and their efforts preparing for this competition. They fittingly embodied the infamous words of former Texas A&M football coach Paul ‘Bear’ Bryant, ‘It’s not the will to win that matters—everyone has that. It’s the will to prepare to win that matters.’ Congratulations to them, and to everyone who helped make this event a success.”
