Huskers Finish Fourth at WVU Fall Classic

The No. 12 Nebraska rifle team competed at the WVU Fall Classic this weekend, placing fourth with a score of 4,700.

In the preliminary round, Carley Seabrooke shot a score of 587 in the smallbore, which qualified her for the finals round, where she placed second with a score of 356.6.  

“Overall, the team battled hard this weekend,” Head Coach Richard Clark said. “In smallbore, it was great to see the performances across the board. While the numbers weren’t representative, the work that we put in was good, and we saw a lot of the little things we’ve been working on in practice show themselves. It was great to see Carley make the individual smallbore final and place second amongst some really talented individuals. While it wasn’t the weekend we were looking for, we will take what we can learn back with us to Lincoln, where we’ll get some much-needed rest and prepare for the spring season.”  

In the smallbore, following Seabrooke’s score, Alivia Perkins shot a 585, placing 15th. Katlyn Sullivan’s 584 earned her 18th place. Charlie Mick (582, 21st), Hannah Gallagher (582, 23rd) and Maddy Moyer (580, 24th) rounded out the NU smallbore lineup. 

In the air rifle, Moyer led the team, shooting a 595 and placing 12th. Sullivan placed 21st, shooting a 592, and Gallagher placed 25th, shooting a 589. Perkins (588, 27th), Seabrooke (587, 28th) and Mick (584, 29th) finished the air rifle lineup. 

The Huskers will get a break from competition before beginning spring play on Jan. 9 against UTEP.
