  MANCHESTER – Two Manchester Township police officers proved their strength and endurance by taking first place in the Women’s Division of the Joint Base McGuire-Dix-Lakehurst Annual Fit Challenge: Law Enforcement Edition.

  Officers Taylor Schandall and Jordan Weed not only captured the division title but also posted times fast enough to beat several competitors in the men’s field, including officers from neighboring Ocean County agencies.

  The competition tested participants with an eight-station fitness course, each segment separated by a quarter-mile run, pushing both physical and mental toughness.

  Department officials praised the officers for their achievement, noting that their performance highlights the dedication Manchester police maintain toward health and readiness.
