CLARKSVILLE, Tenn. ? Austin Peay State University women's rifle team will host a triangular meet with Jacksonville
State and Murray State beginning at 9 a.m., Saturday, at the Memorial Health Building.
"Murray State and Jacksonville State are both formidable opponents who will be tough to beat," said head coach
Howard Wooster. "The team is fired up after beating Morehead State last week, and I'm confident in them this week."
Against Morehead State last week, junior Shauna Haskin (552 points), senior Jessica Benton-Boyer (531 points) and
freshman Jacqueline Furlong (519 points) all placed in the top ten. Freshmen Jessica Haught (500 points) and Krista
Anderson (494 points) and sophomore Amanda Haskin (491 points) also shot well.
Murray State and Jacksonville State are two of the top rifle teams in the NCAA. Last year, the Racers finished second
at the OVC tournament and fifth overall in the NCAA championships, while the Gamecocks were OVC Champions and
two years ago were NCAA champions in air rifle.
