Coaches Corner
"It's tough to lose any match but losing to Navy stings a bit more, said Head Coach Leighton Dempster. "I'm proud of Chris for stepping up when we needed him, 1179 aggregate ties his season-best and he led the team in both smallbore and air rifle today. Destin continues to improve with another set of personal bests in air rifle and aggregate score. What got us today was rough kneeling and air rifle. Headed into our last GARC match of the season we will focus on pressure training and specifically air rifle development."
