Nebraska Ranked No. 6

At the conclusion of the first half of the 2014-15 season, the Nebraska rifle team is ranked sixth on the Collegiate Rifle Coaches Association Poll. 

The Huskers finished 6-3 overall in 2014.  Nebraska lost its first match of the season to Air Force in Colorado Springs on Oct. 4, but went on a six-match winning streak throughout the rest of October and into November, including an upset against Murray State who was ranked fifth at the time.  In addition, the Big Red defeated Ole Miss, NC State, Army, Memphis and Ohio State.  NU ended the first part of the season in Alaska where the team dropped two matches to Kentucky and Alaska-Fairbanks. 

The Huskers have a few weeks off and will begin competing again in January when the team travels to West Virginia to take on the top-ranked Mountaineers on Jan. 17.  The match is set to begin at 8am.
