For the archery season we have 4 archery members who have qualified for state- Heather Freund, Luke Frisbee , Taylor Kirchner, and Jordan Zarbano.  The entire team did have a qualifying score however it was late in the season and all shooting spots have been taken. The Archery Team did have a qualifying national shoot during this contest and now may attend the National Shoot in Kentucky. We are hoping Saturdays score will allow us a chance to register sooner.

Thanks to All of those who have given positive feedback and press to this season’s team.
