063. Hondo Owls in the Cyber Sky: Coaching, Competing, and Connecting in a Hyper-Connected World

In this episode of #CyberChats, we dive into the world of cyber competitions with Frederick Hall – Cyber Education Leader for Texas District 23 and CyberPatriot coach for both the Medina Valley High School AFJROTC and the Hondo Cyber Owls – alongside Jessica Counselman, Team Captain of the Hondo Cyber Owls.


Fred shares what it’s like to guide middle and high school students through the fast-paced world of CyberPatriot competitions, while Jessica gives us a firsthand look at the excitement (and pressure!) of being a teen cyber defender.


We explore how ubiquitous connectivity – from smartphones to smart fridges – shapes the way we train the next generation of cyber leaders, and how the skills learned by the Hondo Cyber Owls go far beyond competition. Tune in to hear stories of teamwork, strategy, growth, and what it really takes to soar in the ever-connected cyber sky. 🦉💻
