JACKSONVILLE, Ala. -- The Ole Miss rifle team closed out its fall season by placing sixth in both the air rifle and smallbore competitions at a tournament at Jacksonville State. The Lady Rebels scored a 1459 in the air rifle, one point short of the school record, and a 4168 in the smallbore.
Maranda Stockton, a freshman from Livingston, Tenn., led the way with a season-high 1117 in the smallbore to place 16th and a 366 in the air rifle to rank 15th. Senior Jessica Crockett, a native of Brown Deer, Wis., finished second on the squad and 23rd overall in the air rifle with a career-high 371. She scored a 1075 in the smallbore to place 27th.
Jill Barnes, a sophomore from Jackson, Miss., shot a 360 in the air rifle and a 1073 in the smallbore, while Samantha Ball, a junior from New Albany, Miss., posted a 350 in the air rifle and a 913 in the smallbore.
"I was happy with our performance," said UM rifle head coach Valerie Boothe, who is in her fourth season at Ole Miss. "We were very well prepared and we shot well. It was a great way to end the first half of our season."
On Saturday, Ole Miss finished second out of five teams at the Wolf Creek Invitational, an air rifle competition held at the Olympic rifle complex in Atlanta. The Lady Rebels shot a 1456 led by Stockton, who placed fifth individually with a 366. Crockett turned in a 356 to rank 10th, while Ball and Barnes each scored a 351.
