The team posted top scores in multiple disciplines, and five athletes were named All-Americans.

The Hillsdale College Shotgun Team won third place Division II Team High Overall at the ACUI/SCTP Collegiate Clay Target Championship, which took place at the National Shooting Complex in San Antonio, Texas, from March 17-22.

“Making the podium at nationals is always an accomplishment,” said head shotgun coach Jordan Hintz. “A lot has to go right at an event this long with so many disciplines. I’m so proud of all our athletes, especially the seniors and freshmen, even if the outcome was not quite what we wanted. We’ll be back next year and hungrier than ever.”

In American Skeet, Hillsdale athletes broke 497/500 targets, earning first place in Division II and the highest score of any team in attendance regardless of division.
