Coaches Quotes
"It's been a great trip for the team. They had a lot of great performances. Today's was most impressive in my eyes. To put an effort like that forth on the final day of a long road trip highlights this teams resiliency and grittiness. 
 
I was especially pleased with Rylan and Daniel today. Both put together great smallbore and air gun performances. It's not easy to put them both together on the same day.
 
We accomplished everything we were looking for on this trip. I want to thank our entire administration for the support and trust they placed in our team and coaching staff. We are excited to get back to Fairbanks and continue working."
