BGSL Steel Cats SPP Team Sweep Local Match

DSC_2069DSC_2075DSC_2073

Any day is a great day for shooting at BGSL, but May 30th was especially so as the Steel Cats took home top prize in both Junior and Senior divisions at their local Scholastic Pistol Program match.  We had a great showing of 59 shooters representing 5 teams and 4 states (honorable mention to Union Grove High School for farthest driven- 7 hours from Wisconsin), along with coaching staff and parents.

Steel Cats Junior Rimfire squad (Josh Baldridge, Thomas Mansfield, Logan Avery, and Blake Flannery) took 1st place out of 9 squads.  Steel Cats Senior Centerfire squad (team captain Michael Ryan Arnold, Ryan Hellyer, Austin Arnold, and Seth Kraman) placed 1st out of 3 squads.  High Overall went to Josh Baldridge, who knocked it out of the park yet again with a personal best time.  Teammates Logan Avery, Thomas Mansfield, Ryan Hellyer, and Sam Owens all also posted personal bests for the match.

A total of $15,500 in endowment funds were awarded to winning teams/individuals, $10,000 of which came from BGSL-E.  The endowment accounts are maintained by the Midway USA Foundation and participating teams can write grants to obtain some of these funds annually to help fund team needs. Individuals can donate by visiting midwayusafoundation.com.  The Steel Cats will be adding $8,500 to their endowment based on their match achievements.
