Menchville Archery Team Shoots their Shot at States
The Menchville Archery team placed 5th in their Bullseye Tournament and 6th in the IBO 3D Challenge on Saturday, March 9.
Menchville’s Archery Team competed at the NASP State Archery Tournament on Saturday, March 9. This year, the team signed up for and competed in two separate tournaments: the IBO 3D Challenge, and the Bullseye tournament. All archers on the team were allowed to shoot in the 3D tournament if they wished, but only the top 24 archers on the team could shoot in the Bullseye tournament.
In the 3D Challenge, archers shot at foam targets shaped like animals, and the score was determined by where the arrow landed on the animal’s body. The team concluded the IBO 3D Challenge with a total score of 1602, ranking 6th out of 11 in the state.
In the Bullseye tournament, archers aimed for the center of the target to gain points. The team placed 5th in the state with a score of 3266.
The team’s score in the bullseye tournament qualifies them to advance to Nationals, and the team will travel to Nashville for the competition in May.
