Sir Francis Drake

Liams shooting weekend, day 3
12/15 was the last day for the JORQ, air rifle portion. The kids also had a decent write up in our local paper for the MAC: link to the news minus One quote credit is wrong for Liam, it is the LHS Coach, Curtis Watkins saying how Liam has natural talent.
Liam's score from today was a 561 for 60 shots of standing air rifle. Not his personal best and just a few points shy of medaling again. There a quite a few Anchorage area shooters who come up for this event who only shoot air rifle so there was roughly twice as many shooters than the .22 section.
This was a long, full weekend of shooting, but Liam put up some great scores and had a really good time. Now we get a small break as he heads into finals week for school and we switch over to the Midnight Sun Sharpshooter season. There are several matches in the works but a greatly reduced schedule of 2 days a week at the range instead of the 6 that is normal during the High School season!

Liam's shooting weekend, day 2
12/14 was only the final day of the mid Alaska championship, small bore competition(.22). Liam did OK, a 552, not his personal best (a 557) but good enough to win the Gold for this years tournament!! The picture is from the award ceremony in the UAF indoor rifle range. Also pictured the 2nd and 3rd place winners from Hutch High School who ultimately won the top team award. Hutch also hosted the match this year, presenting awards is the coach and principal for Hutchison High School.

Liam's shooting weekend, day 1
Liam has a full week of shooting this year, his regional high school match is this weekend and also the Junior Olympic Regional Qualifier for the state of AK. The first round of the MAC (mid Alaska championship) went ok, air rifle to start with a 555. Not his best, but not a bad score either, and his team won the air rifle portion today. The .22 small bore JORQ was shot directly after, Liam's score was a 549. Definitely not his best, but enough to earn him the bronze medal for Alaska men!
Liam looking Olympic.
Liam will be shooting 12/14 at 2:45 (.22 for MAC)
12/15 at 1 (air rifle for JORQ) you can watch the targets live here: Nooks Rifle *All times for local Fairbanks time

Better late than never
One good pic from Halloween for this year. Abbie was a rock star!
Also pictured: Christen, the lone ranger and Rachel a spider queen! Playing silly games at the Girl Scout council. Liam wore a power rangers shirt in a group costume with some friends, but I don't have a good pic to post :)
