Rifle

The University of Akron’s No. 16 rifle team struggled this past weekend while competing in the Palmyra Invitational. The Zips would manage to score 4,585 points but it was enough against opponents like No. 11 Army and No. 14 Navy who compiled 4,627 and 4,596 points respectively.

In the smallbore competition, the Zips fought hard but only two teammates were able to crack the 570 mark. Tim Hopkins led the Akron shooters with a 574, while Zachary Strohl posted a 570. Rebecca Green (559) and Marlee Reynolds (558) set new personal bests to try and help the team.
