“I am so proud of all of these students for their efforts,” said Jennifer Pittman, WRD’s shooting sports coordinator. “They have put in a lot of hours, work, sweat and tears to participate all year and then place well enough at the state competition which allowed them to go to nationals. I commend their coaches and parents for allowing them to participate and look forward to where we go from here.”
