This past summer, six juniors marksmen, participated in the 2013 NRA National Matches at Camp Perry, Ohio. Three of them just came back from a National Air Rifle match in Alabama on Monday to start this competition on Wednesday.
In the 3-Position Metallic Sight Team Match, Nicolle Thiry and Nicholle Benedict (both of Frazier-Simplex) with Jack Anderson (Oil City) and Emilee Miller placed 3rd in the overall match with a combined score of 2332 and 104x's. In this same competition, Christopher Thomas and Kiboh Uchida (both of Frazier-Simplex) took a 1st place in the Intermediate Junior category with a 2296 and 89x's.
In the 3-Position Any Sight Team Match, Nicolle Thiry, Nicholle Benedict, Jack Anderson and Emilee Miller took 1st place in the Junior Team division with a combined score of 2318 and 82x's. In this same competition, Christopher Thomas and Kiboh Uchida took a 1st place in the Intermediate Junior category with a 2275 and 64x's.
During the National Matches, competitors also had the opportunity to shoot in some air pistol and rifle competitions. Thomas Welch (Frazier-Simplex) won $30.80 in the 30 Shot Air Rifle Center Shot Match (he was off the big money of $38 by the thickness of a hair). Ariana Grabowski (Frazier-Simplex) took 1st place overall women's division in the Air Rifle 60 Shot International Match (all standing) with a score of 584 and 36x's.
Congratulations to all the competitors on an outstanding summer of shooting. Next year, the small-bore competitions are scheduled to be in Indiana instead of Camp Perry.
