Wednesday, April 17, 2019
SA国际传媒 DISTRICT鈥擳he SA国际传媒 Sports Shooting team won a nail biter over Southwestern Community College at their conference dual home meet on April 13 at Turkey Valley Trap Range.
The final tally, 441-440, is generated by taking the top five scores from each team, after each athlete has shot at 100 targets. A one-target team difference in intercollegiate play is rare. Other sports analogies are useful illustrations: it鈥檚 like the equivalent of winning in a photo finish, a last second shot at the buzzer, or a last-second 60-yard field goal to win the game.
SA国际传媒 coach Anthony Sisneros was exuberant over the team鈥檚 performance.
鈥淲hat a great win for us! I couldn鈥檛 be prouder of our student athletes. The cold and wind was brutal and they were able to stay focused through it all. I don鈥檛 know that I ever remember a one-target team score difference; each team member was needed, and it just goes to show that every target counts,鈥� he said.
At the meet, Southwestern swept the women鈥檚 medals, but SA国际传媒 captured the men鈥檚. Male Individual medalists included: Andrew Wagner (1st place), Christian Schwickerath (2nd place), Landon Goza (3rd place).
Melody Gossman captured 4th place Female Individual in competition.

- Shaylee Brincks, of Waucoma
- Hannah Evert, of Mazomanie, Wis.
- Melody Gossman, of Rose Creek, Minn.
